Long week­end

Yes, how quickly time passes. Ten days since my last entry on my blog. As the silly sea­son hits us (Christ­mas and New Year), work got extremely busy. I’ve been work­ing a lot, so hav­ing a break is a wel­come change. Yes­ter­day, we pretty much had a nice cruizy day with a bit of a sleep in and a leisurely break­fast. We still had our meet­ing to go to, but that is never a burden.

Today we’ll be clean­ing out the garage in prepa­ra­tion for Dad’s visit. We are going to do it up into a bit of a bed­room, so that we can all be com­fort­able. When not in use as a bed­room, it can be a study and a cof­fee room. Ryan Ped­er­sen has given us some slid­ing glass doors, which we’ll be installing just behind the garage roller door. That way we can open up the roller door and have a nice bit of light come in, keep an eye on the kids play­ing out the front, while still hav­ing a closed room.

Cam and Sean have been busy boys in our back­yard. They decided amongst them­selves that, while our fence made out of bam­boo reed was ok, it could do with improve­ment, so they con­creted the poles in and have started putting up a proper fence. It’s great! It gives a nice level of pri­vacy in the back­yard. It was quite a nice sur­prise to see their hard work when arriv­ing home.

Jan­u­ary is going to be another busy month. We have our CO visit, and Reilly will be going to the US with the Pen­folds for the intense pro­gram at the Son-Rise centre.
