Melbourne visit

 We went down to Melbourne for a long weekend to visit Dan, Ame and Auley.  It is SUCH a cool city - great food, coffee, people, things to do.  I love it. I could certainly live there.  And it was amazing to catch up with one of my favorite people in the world, Dan. We went to an awesome little animal park together where they had a great cafe, The Farm Cafe, that I want to copy and paste in CA. We spent all day together and went out to dinner with Dan at night. We also got to see their cute house and amazing vegetable garden surrounding it. Inspiration for us to create some great veggie spaces. We happened to be there during the Comedy Festival too, so we got to see several outdoor shows. Super fun!

P.S. Arlo looks severely abused in these photos - I swear he isn't.  He had several falls this week and looked horrible!

If only Arlo wasn't making a bad face...this could have been such a perfect picture!

Visit from Kelly, Eric and Piper!

We were so so lucky that some of our favorite people, Kelly, Eric and Piper, came to visit us in Australia!  It was such a great visit - lots of wonderful food and cafes, hanging around Gerringong, visiting Berry, the South Coast beaches, Shoalhaven Zoo and Sydney.  Katy was able to join in on the fun too, which of course made for lots of laughs. What a memorable trip!

No big deal, I am just holding a wombat. What????

Home Sweet Gerringong Home

 33 Osbourne St. was our home in Gerringong for almost 3 months. We enjoyed the house, had several visitors, enjoyed the proximity to Werri Beach, town and of course, the Peades! We really enjoyed our time here and were super comfortable.  Also, it was super nice of the spiders and giant cockroach to wait until the last 2 days we were there to show up.  Otherwise, I may have not like it :)

First Days of School in Australia

Arlo's first day of preschool altogether!  He went to Lavender Land Preschool in Gerringong about 2 days a week.  And, Ava went to Year 1 at Gerringong Public School.
