Fun In Sydney!!

Luna Park!
Hi There!! We are home from our week in Sydney, We had a great time (with the exception of Queensland losing Game 2) spent heaps of time sightseeing, eating and drinking! I even dragged Scooter to Ikea- and he loves it too!! I brought a few bits for the house :) We went to a few places I hadn't been too since I was 5 years old- Taronga zoo where I think I saw the same chimpanze that ate its poo in front of me 26years ago- He was still eating poo! We also went to Luna park and had a look round :) Went on the ferries and managed to catch another NRL game- Rabbitohs vs Titans- The Rabbits won woohoo!
The weather wasn't that great for the first few days- losts of rain, and it turned out there was flooding in northern NSW :(
It was great to see Gabe relaxing for a week, And also to have Scooter along with us
to enjoy the trip (We would have loved to have Jules and Luke with us too!!) I mangaed to fit in a few hours of study each day- and today finished my last exam!!
We also magaged to catch up with Uncle Jason, Aunty Shirley and Riki- It was great seeing them all! Uncle Jase took about 5 minutes before he started teasing me..some things never change ;)
We have a busy week here in the dairy..I have dentist appointments (owww), sewing to do, quilts to load up to sell, housework, gardens to do..and Gabe has a tonne of work! So I better head off and do something...Oh that's right I'm having a wine to celebrate exams finishing, so might get round to it tomorrow!
Take Care

Crazy Busy Week!!

Hey There

Its been a busy week at the corner dairy...Finishing 5 play quilts ready for sale, studying for exams, visitors last weekend (Madsen/Thompson family), more visitors today- Uncle Paul & Aunty Janice and then the Morgan's tonight. Scooter is coming with us to Sydney (early hours sunday morn...) to head to State of Origin- Supporting Queensland of course! And to do a bit of shopping, sightseeing and eating!!
Gabe is flat out with his work and has been quite stressed out lately so hopefully the break will be good for him!

Anyway I better go, as there is packing to be done, house to be tidied etc! I will keep you all updated while we are away!
Have a great weekend!
Nell & Gabe
P.S Fizz is sulking as she isn't going to Oz :(
