Still living in the 80s

It was during the wedding reception at Kangaroo Valley two weeks ago that my friends and I were dancing and singing our hearts out to songs from our youth. And not just having a little dance, no, we were reenacting dance moves from the era as well. Each of us was trying to out do the other, and with each drink we had we thought we were hysterial. Sadly, one of us decided to point out that we had now become the adults we used to laugh at when attending weddings or parties with our parents. In retelling this story to another friend, he correctly pointed out that we had always behaved like this, so nothing had changed.

And to confirm I'm not ready to leave the 80s behind me, I saw Duran Duran at the Sydney Entertainment Centre on Friday. I danced and sang, had a great time and they were unreal.

Kangaroo Valley

We've just returned from a fantastic four day holiday in Kangaroo Valley. We were there to attend the wedding of our friends Emma and Dave, and as the majority of our friends were also going to be there for the Easter weekend, we decided to make a real holiday out of it. We rented a house with Johnny, Meg, their baby Rose, and another friend Michaela. Being out of the city and in the country with fresh air and room to run around was revitalising. Add to the mix, great friends, plenty of wine, a wedding to celebrate, and more fun times with friends and wine - everyone came home happy.

Access all areas

Since ditching the nappies, Henry now has easy access to his body and has developed a fascination with certain body parts. His first discovery was what all males discover about themselves and develop a life long obsession with. Just recently he has found his nipples and likes to lift up his t-shirt and twiddle them for a while. Milly, on the other hand, has discovered her nose and that her fingers fit up it just nicely.

After an afternoon tea of peaches, Henry takes Milly on a joy ride.
