skool holidays

well this week i have been back at work again and nat, tina and steve have kindly entertained my kids!! off they went to rottnest island AND nat was even on time to pick them up!!!! in fact she was 2 mins EARLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! now i know that some of you would be thinking rubbish nats never early for anything but credit where credit is due!!!! i was soooooo jealous, i had to work and they are off on the ferry to the beautiful island to snorkle and shop!! steve even bought the kids fishing rods, stevi of course getting the pink one!!!!!!! much to my surprise they loved fishing even stevi!!!! she of course didnt do the holding the fish thing tho, but as you can see murrae did. he has now decided that he doesnt want to be a vet he wants to be a professional fisherman! tomorrow is australia day, its a public holiday and everyone and their dog heads to the perth foreshore of the river swan to watch the skyworks fireworks show. now i have heard that the display is beautiful and the atmosphere brilliant but nearly everyone i have talked to has either been beaten up or mugged personally or knows of someone who has. so we have decided to do the decent thing and hit the beach to soak up the expected 40 deg temp and then hopefully, if i am not too late to book, off on the fast ferry from hillarys around the coast line and perfect views of the fireworks! wish me luck!!!!
