Brady's "7"






Today is Brady's 7Th birthday. I cant believe he is 7 how time flies. He is such a great kid and I'm very happy to be his Mom. I have learned so many things over the past 7 year from him. His smile can make anyone happy, if you work hard at something you love you can become good at it, and to live in the moment everyday. Happy Birthday Brady Boo we love you!!!

A Day at The Zoo

Yesterday we went to the zoo with a guy that Travis works for and his family. Guy is his name he's from New York his wife Kayco is from Japan they have two girls Nina 12 and Annabelle 6. They live in Japan and came here for a family holiday. They wanted to met us so we met them at the zoo. Brady and Annebelle got along really well and had a great time, he was very sad when it was time to say goodbye. They were a lovely family and we had a nice time spending the day with them.




Grand Prix Car Parade

This week at Brady's school they had a car parade to celebrate the Grand Prix here in Melbourne. In the past the kids would make cars out of boxes and have races with them but this year they just had a parade with their cars to show everyone. Because this summer was so hot and there was no rain the grounds where they hold the races are in bad shape so they didn't want to do the race, but they had a good time anyway.










A Great Day At The Beach

We went to Mornington to the beach last weekend it was such a nice day we wanted to get out and enjoy the sun. It as been getting colder here so it may be our last beach outing. There was a big sand hill so the kids and I had races up and down the hill. Blake was always the fastest coming down, Brady and I were to careful.If you look at the boys faces Brady has a smile on his face and Blake is very serious and determined to win. It speak volumes about their personality's.










Rocks Blake found. When we got home he thought it would be a good idea to clean his rocks in the tub with him. It turns out they are not rock but big clumps of dirt that fell apart in the tub.




Catching Up

It has been along time since I have posted. A lot has been going on since the last post. The kids started a new school year on the first of February. They are having a great time and loving their new teachers. They are already learning heaps. In February my mom and sister came for a visit. It was so fun to have them here. Of course we missed Rick, Bill and the kids but we were glad Mom and Ally could come. We did some sightseeing in Melbourne, we went to the Great Ocean Road to see the Twelve Apostles, and just hung out. It was a lot of fun. The T-ball season finished up in March it was so fun to watch the kids play and Travis enjoyed coaching them. Sightseeing in Melbourne

Blake ended up joining the team mid season because a few players stopped coming. He was so excited to play and loved every minute of it. It took him a few games to figure out how to run around the bases and not to stop and pick up the ball while running around the bases. He was so much fun to watch because he was so happy to be playing.





Abby liked watching the boys play too.
