Time to empty the house

My gawd this is uncomfortable

Now the clowns have put me on the back of the van. Haven't even left the street and I've got severe chafing. I reckon I'll be lucky to make it to Geelong.

The green t-shirt

Dear Fairies. It's Anna here. I've got 2 wobbly teeth now. I hope you collect my teeth because I think one is going to fall out at Christmas time. Love from Anna.

Final cricket match for the mighty Coburg Under 10's

Hi its Darcy. Last night was my final game for Coburg under 10s. I got 4 wickets, 3 run outs and made 22 not out with one 6 and 3 4s. We won by three runs.

I've had fun playing this season. It has been a great experience and wish Coburg good luck for the rest of the season.

Last Gynkhana for Ruby

Hi it's Ruby.....again. These are some pictures of me at my Gymkana. The picture of me on the horse is when we did smartest on parade and I came first!

In the other picture I'm sitting next to my friend Nicole.

I'll miss my horses and horse riding friends.

We should do this more often

Much fun has been had over the last few weeks catching up with people we should see more often. We should go away every year!

All set to go!

Hi Ruby here!! Thease are twelve volt plugs that we can use to: charge ipods, phones cameras

and lots of other cool stuff. This is the fridge that keeps all of food cool - especialy ice-cream!!!

This is the roof rack where we can carry camping gear, boogie boards and lots of other stuff. On the side of the roof rack are tubes where we store tent pollsand other camping gear.

They've given me a haircut!

Hi Pablo here. The mongrels have shaved all my hair off now. I look like a total idiot! I'm going to stow-away in the back here & hope they don't notice so I don't have to be neglected by Ellie.

Cup weekend camping trip

As part of our going away carry-on we had a massive 4-day weekend down on the family farm near Wonthaggi. About 60 people came and a great time was had by all (except Martin who still has his leg in plaster - and Leo who has had the stitches out of his head now).

The talent quest was a major success, mc'd by Dan. Ellie did wondefully well with the trivia night, and the cup eve extravaganza was spectacular thanks to Uff's dab hand at cooking lamb on the spit.

Other highlights were yabbying, the paddock golf tournament (won by Ben & Martin (pre broken leg)), Dean's movie night in the tractor shed, sending the women folk off for a leisurely lunch at the kernot store and making damper.

The nights ended up being a bit late, but it was a great weekend that we'll all remember for a long time.
