The house feels a bit empty at the moment… Jaimi is having a respite
holiday with my Mum and Dad, Zoe is in Bendigo doing some volunteer work
for the RSPCA, and Russ is out bush… so it's just me, Darci, Xan and
Willow…

No sooner did I kick Xan and Willow and their mattresses out of the lounge room than Darci moved herself in! (did you notice her Hi5 doona set… she has had it for about 10 years!!)

Zoe, Darci and I saw the movie 'Eclipse' (the third Twilight movie) at the Gold Class cinema today… it is definitely the way to watch a movie… reclining chairs, waiters, intimate groups… awesome! … and, of course i took my camera!

In an attempt to be leaner and get fitter, I have been swimming a lot lately… I am currently able to do 20x33m laps the local indoor pool… thats a total of 660m! WooHoo!

Another night volunteering down at the Donovan Joynt Hop-In Centre… this time I was joined by Russ, Xan and Willow who spent the night trying to kill each other on this networked computer game… and Zoe who hung out and watched the football with me.

We had a ten pin bowling day at work today… this is me, just missing out on a 'turkey' (that's three strikes in a row!!)… I have never been a great bowler and haven't actually bowled for years… but today – I scored a PB (133) and came second over all!! Hahaha… it was hilarious!

Talk about a step back in time… I traveled to Bonegilla for work and stayed in the same building I lived in nearly 20 years ago as a trainee Cartographic Technician… I had good times here… great memories.

So here they are… my North Queensland wedding couple, Pete and Jo.

I had such a wonderful time in Ayr, photographing Pete, Jo, their beautiful bridesmaids and their hilarious, but cheeky groomsmen! I hope you like your sneak peek guys… and I can't wait to share your entire gallery with you in the next few weeks!

Can you believe that these are the first running repairs I have had to make on 'Raffie' in the seven and a half years that he has been Willows constant companion? That is one tough Giraffe!

Xan is turning into quite the little hockey player… she is fast and
strong and watches that ball like a hawk… she knows where it is going
before it has even been hit! Awesome!

Russ bought Darci a new helmet and jersey while he was away playing
hockey in Sydney… together they decided that red was the colour to
deter goals… didn't quite work for this game… but we hold out hope!

Jaimi had her hair trimmed today… we have decided that we like it this
length… much easier to look after and it suits her!

I wandered down to Darci's room tonight to take some photos of our house-guest, Tyris (the cat), but she wasn't cooperating… so I took a self-portrait instead – oh, and I included Darci as well…
