Quality time with cousins

We were very lucky to be able to spend a couple of nights together with my sister Lys and her kids. It was a full house and very noisy but the kids had a great time catching up - big family holidays are great and hopefully these memories will stay with the kids for a lifetime.

Christmas break - Part three

We are very lucky at the farm to have some good friends who live on the farm next door with the same age kids - they all get along really well. Mali and Hugo love going to 'Coco house'







Other 'tid-bits' from the break;












Christmas break - Part two

Evie went for her first swim at the farm - she is such a chilled out baby, she wasn't fazed by it at all. 

The kids did so much swimming, especially Mali. I'm just glad she can swim by herself now days so I didn't have to swim at Breakfast, lunch and dinner (mind you Auntie Bee did most of the swimming with the kids!)













The obsession with kite flying at the farm is still there. Luckily it broke after the second day so we weren't pestered to fly the kite every second!





Christmas break - Part one

After Christmas Auntie Bee, Ma, Pa and us Dunn's headed back up to the farm to enjoy a week of relaxation - well at least I hope they were able to relax with our kids there...

Once we arrived Ma, Auntie Bee and I headed into Forster to do the weekly shop and on impulse I ended up buying the kids some el-cheapo remote control cars. They lasted for a few days, though it was Hugo who go the most out of them as one remote, controlled both cars. After a few arguments Mali gave up so Hugo was in heaven controlling both... naked of course - That boy is one hard kids to get clothes on, I just hope he's over it by winter!







They kids loved getting their cuddles from Auntie Bee. They don't get to see her too often as she lives in Mudgee but they were definitely getting a good dose - It was a much needed injection of energy!
