We have just had all the grandchildren and their mother visiting for the week. And how quickly the time flew.
Most days we took the children to nearby Thompsons Beach for a few hours - a nice gentle beach with lots of sand and no crashing waves. The children had a ball.
Wednesday we went and visited my cousin - Julie and her two daughters and spent a full day with them. Again the time flew past and we found ourselves heading home after 8pm. All the children fell asleep on the hour long journey.
Thursday - Darryl and Bradley headed off to the airport to collect Ben and Daniel as they had returned from their epic trip to the USA. They called into home for about an hour before Darryl took them the rest of the journey to their unit in Eagleby.
Thursday afternoon Ben came and joined us for dinner and we had a great time learning about their adventures in USA and Canada.
Friday (today) Beckie and the three younger children headed home and Bradley is staying for an extra couple of days.
'Lucky Last' has come along in leaps and bounds. Over the past week he has learnt to crawl on all-fours and he is pulling himself up and walking along the furniture with minimal assistance. Even when he is holding on to your finger - he isn't really hanging on. Cheeky little fellow and the only one that can get him to REALLY giggle is 'Monkey Boy'. Whenever they are together there are tons of giggles.
This coming week we were supposed to be camping with the Campertrailer group at BATLOW, But we are at home as I still have some medical tests to be done to sort out my issues. We will be hanging around for a couple weeks and then may do a short trip and be back in time for my repeat scans in November.
We were to be in Mudgee in October with the ACC for the National Muster but will not be there for the same reason. So get the health issues sorted and next year we will plod our way around the country in the van.
