Chocolate mousse

Yummy, yummy, yummy.










Race for Research

Race for Research is an annual 5km fun run to raise money for breast cancer research. When Mum told us about it we decided to join in and show our support for this important cause, as well as our gratitude for still having our Mum - a breast cancer survivor.

Henry hanging about the stage for the presentations. He was a bit confused he wasn't called up to collect a prize, but he stormed the stage afterwards looking for some loot.



A sausage sandwich turned out to be prize enough for Mr Henry.

High tea

We've done another visit to Sydney, this time for Dot Tonkin's birthday 'high tea'. The kids had a great time as there were plenty of yummy treats to eat. Michael and I had a good time too, we stayed the night at Dot and Max's which meant we could indulge in a few extra drinks when the kids were asleep and not worry about driving. Hooray!

The next day Michael had to work, so me and kids went to the zoo and visited a few of our old favourite play spots in Sydney.




"Mum-mum, what happens if I put a marshmallow on a skewer and then stick it under this brown stuff?"


"Oh that's what happens. I better do it another 15 times before I make a decision if I like it or not."



"Look what all that sugar has done to Allegra. I'd better eat some more too."


"Mmm, what trouble can I get into?"



"I don't think anyone will notice me drink that champagne."



Cheeky monkeys!
