Happy New Year

A rather low-key event here….I was in bed at 7.30pm
(in my defense Ari had woken for the day at 4.30am and
I’d been up since then)

We were hoping to go and see the early fireworks, but the lousy weather
made it impossible.
Mark and the boys stayed up watching a movie and making popcorn.

Amazing to think that this time last year, A wasn’t even a thought in our lives.
Wonder what this year will bring???

another favourite from the King Kaden series

Just some random photos from a house that we visited for lunch yesterday
…the kids were in Heaven! lots of little nooks and crannies for them to explore.

Aria (who my family have nick-named sloth!) pretty much slept the whole time.

(even through the commotion of a watermelon-skin-throwing-competition)
