Welcome to our Family blog. It will try to capture the various asundry activities of our mundane lives, but with an attempt at making it seem not quite so mundane.

Halloween Party

Logan just loved the haunted house and went
through again and again! Delenn was more
interested in getting her arm painted (a unicorn)
and playing the games.

Visiting a Scientist's Lab

Today we were very fortunate to have the
opportunity to visit a scientist and see the lab
where he works. It was really interesting
(though I'm very sad the pictures are so
blury. Our regular camera broke when Logan dumped
black paint on top of it.)

The freezers below (in the last two pictures) were full
of reptiles, birds and animals waiting to be preserved.

Catching up with our friends in Canberra

Logan and Holly (in the striped shirt) were friends when
they were about 9months to age 3. It's been about three
years since we last met up; both our families have changed
a bit, wouldn't you say?!

A couple more Elora pictures

In the last two pictures, Elora is transfering water from
one bowl to the other by squeezing the sponge.

Elora enjoys painting this week

Elora has really enjoyed painting this week. First thing this
morning she got her paint shirt on even though it's quite chilly
out! As I mentioned on the other blog, she didn't get too much
out of the marble painting except for rolling the marble
around in her hand. In the last two pictures she's signing
"yucky"!!
