Joel's birthday.

Both Mollie and Joel had a great time on the quad bike and the scrambler.

The boys in the 'bush'.
We had a great time in the country, although Daddy was pleased to get back to some good old concrete and a mobile phone signal... :)

Mollie on Dolly. Mollie also had a great time and even tried trotting.

Joel enjoyed his riding lesson, albeit a little "bumpy".

The kids had a great time with all the animals.

As we are 'Billy no-mates', instead of having birthday parties, we decided to go north of Sydney and stay on a farm.

Joel's birthday at 'Day Care'.
Mummy made smiley face cakes for his class, which went down well.

Mollie had her school sports day and had great fun.

Don't judge the book by the cover... Joel did actually love this ride, just didn't want to show you guys!

Joel's favourite also.

For her birthday, Mollie wanted to go to Luna Park. The fair on the north shore.
One of the favourite rides, the carousel.

Joel's new bike.
To get him on his way, we have got him a bike with no pedals. No, not that Dad is cheap... it means he focuses on balance and not the pedals.

So with Mollie's new bike, comes a bad back for Daddy.
Now the weather is improving, we can focus on getting Mollie to ride her bike.

One for the album. "Joel, look at the camera, look at the camera.... oh, and smile."

This year they both received bikes as birthday presents from Mummy & Daddy.

Mollie's 7th birthday and the best part of the day, opening presents!

Joel and his sleeping buddy. Joel spends his days rugby tackling Dexter, but at the end of the day, Dexter still loves sleeping with him. As the saying goes "keep your enemies close by...." :)

Trying out their new Swimming hats.
With the winter weather and with settling in to Sydney I have not been able to upload onto the blog, but hopefully I will find the time...
With becoming Sydneysiders, the kids have started their swimmings lessons and were assigned their new hats.
