Pool fun and Rosie Bucket head

Posted on April 21, 2008October 15, 2026 by Libby Withnall

It’s been such bad weather all week – not good for school holidays but we’ve kept busy.

On Wednesday we went shopping at Miranda with Nanny and to see “Horton Sees A Who” – which was very cute and funny.

Thursday I went to exchange some clothes I bought for Kevin yesterday (they were too big), then Mum joined us at the Stampin’ Up open house. Had some lunch out and got a few groceries for our trip. Felt very inspired from the stamp day and scrapbooked till 7pm – you’ve already seen the results.

Then yesterday, Friday, I took Rosie into the vets – she had her drains removed, then went to the beauticians to get my nails done, then drove up to meet Leanne & the girls at Mt.Annan indoor pool. The girls had a great time on the big inflatable slide – though only Sarah and Christy managed to get to the end.l They were in the water for 4 hours – stopping only for lunch.

Home again we decided to take Rosie back to the vets to get her wounds checked. This time she came home looking like this…

Bush walk at Mt. Keira

Today after dropping Rosie at the vets, the girls and I headed up Mt. Keira to go on a little bushwalk. We weren’t sure we’d be able to cause it was drizzly, but by the time we got there it had cleared up, we could even get a pretty good view up and down the coast. We went on a little walk – about 20mins – then stopped for some morning tea. The girls had a milk shake, I had a hot chocolate (it was rather cold and windy out) and we shared some scones. It was a lovely morning and when the weather clouded in again I was glad we had managed to get out for some fresh air and exercise.

While at the cafe I was amused at the girls “playing” with the salt, pepper and sugar. Kids!!!

Rosie is home again now. This time she looks very Christmassy.

Birthday celebrations

Yesterday we celebrated my Granny’s 86th birthday at Mum’s. We had a lovely afternoon – sitting outside in the sunshine, eating, chatting and being entertained by the kids (mind you they were in a bit of a mood yesterday). My Aunt and Uncle were there as well so it was nice to catch up with them.

New toys

Kevin is loving his new toy, or should I say new baby :-). He’s got himself a new jacket (and just ordered new pants) as his was way to big (he’s now lost nearly 40kg), so he looks more like a “biker” now.

Here’s some photos of his very first bike back in 2002- I remember Amy thinking he was off the deliver the mail :-).

The girls also got new toys this week – Nintendo DS’s – which they have been wanting for ages but we bought mainly for the big trip to Ayers Rock. Of course, Kevin didn’t want to make them wait so they’ve gotten them early to have on the 12 hour drive to Queensland next weekend.
