Updates

I have to say though that the fires that have been happening in Victoria are on my mind and close to my heart which is part of the reason for my silence. It's shocking and saddening to be living in such a time of hardship and Australia worst natural disaster in it's history!
We are rather far removed physically from the situation but are experiencing sadness as a country at this time. The boys had "silly sock day" at school where they could wear their craziest socks and donated a "gold coin" which is just 1 or 2 dollars. Our school alone raised $3000 for the relief effort! Alan had a great pair of stripey socks he wore but Jay just wanted to give a donation...already concerned about looks.

And I cannot believe the rain and cold that has set in and am only thanking God that the beach part of our holiday was gloriously hot. We've managed to keep ourselves and the girls busy anyway. I've gotten back to a routine more or less of getting the kids off to school etc. We've had a few rockin' parties. My birthday (which I have yet to do a whole post on) then last night Heidi and Dan hosted a Valentines/Dan's birthday party. We all had to come dressed as famous couples. We had the Phantom of the Opera and Christine (bit creepy), Lois and Clark (Joanne and Sharif), Shane and I were Neo and Trinity (he had to work his leather trench coat in there somewhere..I was all ready to go as a Bond girl, sic.) Serena and Zeth were Hef and a playboy bunny and I can't remember the others....sorry. tons more photo's. Do u really want another slide show?

Leo Bash






We managed to all find babysitters and get together for a fun night of food and wine to celebrate our 4 Leo's in town ..... well 5 including baby Ray. These are the only pix that sorta turned out...the rest of them we look a little too bleary eyed drunk .... ha.... not me, but I'm sure it was the mixture of long days and 9:30 being our usual bedtime (ha) Everyone contributed by bringing a potluck dinner dish, bottle of wine and a game. Hardly anyone remembered the games, but we still had fun with the ones we played and it turned out to be plenty for our crowd anyway.
