Beach Bums...

We spent a fair bit of time on the beach - we were lucky enough to have the most perfect weather though it was a little nippy in the water (well for us tropical folk anyway!!). Grandpa entertained all the kids with sand croc building and also a bit of fishing!

Down on the farm.

We spent four days out on Jo & Waynes property bird sitting while they went to Fiji. Found out the hard way that I'm not really a bird person but other than that it was very relaxing.

We were lucky enough to see these chicks hatch. Soo cute!!!
