A long time since there has been an update :-)

So what's been happening ... ?

We had two trips away in the school holidays ...

For the first one we stayed at Auburn and caught up with Mum and Dad (for Dad's birthday) and one of my sisters and her family.

Hannah and my niece Ruby ...

Rohan and my nephew Thomas ...

We stayed at a B & B in Auburn ... Rose Cottage It's hard to find accommodation for a family of 6 but this worked quite well.

We had lunch on Sunday at Burra at La Pecora Nera , an Italian Pizzeria & Osteria



And then on Monday we did a day trip to the Barossa Valley and had lunch at Vintners Bar & Grill. We also visited two wineries ... Penfolds and Rockfords. Tasted some lovely wine at Rockfords :-)

Then the second weekend of the holidays we headed to Melbourne for a family trip for a great aunty's 100th birthday!! So glad we went! The boys enjoyed going to 3 games of football and Hannah and I enjoyed the shopping!!

We also did a funny day trip while in Melbourne ... hopped on a tram "to go to Brighton" ... ended up getting off at the last stop, at the Nepean Highway! Then we jumped on a bus and got slightly closer to Brighton ... with a short walk we ended up at ... Middle Brighton where we had lunch at The Baths Cafe!

Then after lunch we walked back to catch a train into the city!

And now we are home catching up on home type things!!
