And then - he was SEVEN!

JUSTICE'S BIRTHDAY IS HERE!!!



I don't know how it happened, but Justice has just turned seven... SEVEN...
We celebrated primarily last wekend with a sleepover birthday- two friends spent the night on Saturday and we went to dinner and then I took the three soccer-crazy boys to the Brisbane Lions home game. Where we sat sixth row centre field between the two teams. I do not know how I scored such great seats, but the kids thought we were rock stars!
VERY EXCITING!

We celebrated today with pressies -
thank you Grandpa America, Aunt Suzi & family, Aunt Sharona & family and Grandma & G'Pa!
We also had dinner out with Sharona and Keala. (Thank you!)
It was a wonderful day to celebrate such a great kid.

Our little man is getting so big so quickly!

Too Busy to Blog...


I know I always say I am time poor, and I have good intentions about returning to letter writing, but truly, we are crazy busy at work... and after that, its family, school, baking groups... life is madness... things settle down at the end of November and I am going to blog more faithfully, write letters (even if its the only one you get all year) and scrapbook... Really, I am... after a week of napping!
(scroll down though - because I back dated a bunch of August/September posts)

School Holidays...

I had this week off as well, so Justice and I have been "hanging out" when I am not plugging away on my million group projects...
It did keep raining and raining, so we have been to the movies with friends (Despicable Me) and been to the movies together in our pj's with a $5 voucher (Diary of a Wimpy Kid) and seen a 3D movie with some free passes (Legends of the Guardians) and rented some movies... Yes, I am SO imaginative!

We did also attend this "wood" workshop on Wednesday where Justice made this birdhouse out of the new "Kid Wood"... Our Toys R Us is very cool during school holidays, running free workshops and competitions...
Two solid weeks of rain during the two weeks of school holidays... this just doesn't happen in general, and to span the whole school holidays is cruel... It makes me especially grateful that he went to sports camp last week!!!

When it rains...




IT HAS POURED all week. Some school holidays... Unfortunately, I am still in classes this week. Fortunately, Justice has been able to go to sports camp... He is doing fencing, AFL, soccer, rockwall climbing, ball games, cricket and SIXTEEN other sports! They cycle through seven different sports for a half hour session Monday - Friday. They don't let you take photos - but from these pics outside you can see that he LOVES sports camp!

SPRING FAIR 2010

Today was the last day of term, and so the SPRING FAIR was on... there was face painting, and fund-raising for the orangutans, there was sumo wrestling AGAINST A TEACHER and a bunch of rides - a swing, a slide, a ferris wheel - and Justice class' HAUNTED HOUSE!


I skipped contracts and spent the day with Justice... very fun... NOW we have two weeks of holidays which can never be as fun as the last day of term 3!
