The time between pages just keeps getting longer, I find so little time these days. Christmas 2005 saw us go upto Geraldton to see Rosie’s parents. We did this before Christmas so that we would have more time to see everyone. Liam enjoyed going on his cousin Paul’s crayfish boat. Uncle John took the boys […]
2005 November Family Update
After the ski trip in July, October quickly came up on us which is Liam’s birthday. We had a party for 10 of his friends and Liam planned all the activities. Liam’s ideas were great. He wanted me to hide little army men in the paddock so everyone could do a treasure hunt. He also […]
2005 July – Family Update
Another busy term, making final arrangements for the 2005 ski trip and our family holiday to Queensland. Liam continues to progress really well at school and is reading a massive number of books. I am really pleased with the way he can sound out words to determine what they are. He also enjoys reading, with […]
March 2005 – Family Update
I have been very slack at keeping the family page up to date but I have been putting pages together that tell everyone a bit about what we have been up to. We all went skiing in 2004 on a school trip that Bruce organised and then later in the year Bruce went to New […]
Ross and Val McKillop’s Wedding – November 2004
With the tragic death of Liz McKillop earlier in the year, Rosie and Bruce agreed that it would be good for Bruce to go to Ross McKillop’s wedding in New York and support Merv during this time. Bruce left Margaret River at 11:30 am on Monday, 22nd November. After an amazingly long flight, with delays […]
2003 December – Family Update
In July we took a couple of weeks long service leave and went on a holiday to Queensland and New South Wales. Liam really enjoyed most of the holiday but it was a little taxing at time. The major project for this year was to complete the beach house in Prevelly. We were very pleased with the way in which […]
2003 LSL Days 22 to 30
We left Newcastle and drove to Canberra (5 hours). The drive was relatively easy and Liam was quite pleasant. When we arrived we immediately went to the National Dinosaur Museum. This was really good for the kids and Liam enjoyed the exhibits. He really enjoyed the computer game on dinosaurs and played it for nearly […]
2003 LSL – Days – 19, 20 and 21
We decided that we had seen as much of Sydney as we wanted with Liam so we spent the morning cleaning up and having a look at Dee Why beach. The drive up to Newcastle caused no problems. As usual we missed the turn off that our instructions told us about and had to approach […]
LSL 2003 – Day 18
We caught the Manly Ferry today into Sydney and went to visit the Australia Museum. The ride was quite interesting, passing a few important land marks and giving you a good view of the Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge. Liam loves museum’s since they have dinosaur bones and lots of other bones. He thorough […]
2003 LSL – Days 16 and 17
We left the resort yesterday and had another good flight down to Sydney. Liam got some colouring in pencils and a book which kept him occupied for most of the flight. Picked up another little Ford Laser in Sydney and had a confusing drive to Dee Why. We took a couple of wrong turns but […]
