A fun weekend in Lakes Entrance

We visited my Mum and Dad's place (while they are holidaying up north) with our dear friends Dwayne, Susan and Sarah. The snow on the way over was amazing to say the least. It was like there had been a 'sudden' cold snap and the ice on the bottom of signs and trees was on an angle. I so wish I had taken some photo's!
Sadly the only beautiful day was the Saturday when we girls decided to go to Bairnsdale for some 'retail therapy' (which we just don't get in Mt Beauty!). The next 2 days were wet, wet, wet! Be we still had fun and made it to Metung for lunch on one of the days. Metung is one of my favorite places. The girls coloured while we chatted and then we had a delicious lunch together. After lunch we were able to go for a walk on the piers in front of the Metung Hotel. It was a fun weekend all in all :) ...oh! and we stopped for a bit of snow play on the way home!

Courses continuing.....

Actually - it's not a course - it's a 30 day challenge! I've been having a ball but had to share these photo's. I was so happy with them and still love seeing my little girl loving her 'snugly' and her 'suixi bear'.

A chance to watch you dance!

..and then there was dance and a chance to watch you having a ball!

Farewell Souhail....

Goodbye little man. Your time here was so, so short. Your parent must be feeling your loss so deeply.

Today I went to Souhail's funeral. I've never been to a funeral for a really young child....and I never want to go to one again. Souhail was 7 months younger than Ebony. It has really done my head in...and my heart.

He was a dear little man - he contracted Leukemia about 6 weeks ago. His mummy and daddy brought him home and he wanted to do things like 'go and feed the cows'. As a result of his time at home he contracted a virus and in 4 days he was gone.

Rest in the arms of Jesus little man. The children at school released balloons for you. Darling Ebony is struggling in ways even she doesn't understand...and so am I.

Acro!

You love 'Acro' - it's right up your alley. You are doing so well and I was thrilled when I got to sit in on a session and take some photo's. My little girl - growing, changing, learning. How I love you! xxx
