It's been a busy few days....when Matt and I come home we sometimes feel like 'Australia's most wanted'.....its nice that everyone wants to see us but makes for a busy time...
But this week has been all about spending time with my sister, Tam. While matt went back to work for his old employer (making him REALLY feel like the past 4 years hadnt happened!) Tam and i have spent our time shopping and swimming and generally relaxing. being a high school teacher means that she works like a dog during term time....the fact that many of my good friends are teachers has helped me realise just how hard these guys work... and she needs her summer holidays to recupe....and it's my job to help her do just that!
but on Wednesday we made ourselves even more exhausted by going to Dreamworld and regressing to circa 10 ans....we made ourselves sick on crazy rides....marvelled over magnificent tigers... and pigged out on ice cream and pizza....unfortunately not only had it seemed we'd chosen the hottest day of the year so far, we also chose a day where the park was filled to the brim with students on excursions during their last week of school....i've never seen so many bratty kids in my life...but we fit right in and played with the best of them...
spending time with my god-daugher, Harriet and her sister Georgia in the pool yesterday we continued to play like children....horsey rides and underwater ballet....how far can YOU swim underwater?? marco POLO!!
but tonight i must once again pretend to be an adult for, to celebrate our 9th (yes 9th) wedding anniversary Matt and i are treating ourselves to some five star luxury in brisvegas...right on the river and in the city....the weekend might include some strawberries...perhaps some champagne....a little chocolate....a nice dinner or 2 in the city....a stroll along the waterfront....perhaps some magic....
then...to top it all off we will spend a gorgeous sunday morning relaxing over lunch with my oldest friend, alex....(old as in length of years spent as dear friends rather than years of age....!)....
stay tuned. xx
