Camping

We are trying our hand again at camping with foozles. Last year was very hard as Matthew would normally sleep in a cot. When faced with the tent, had a melt down and screamed for two nights. Now Matthew has been moved to a big bed when we moved to our new house. We are feeling confident as this trip is just the one night and the drive to Dubbo is a little over two hours. We have our bikes and the trailer for the foozles. We will pack lots of lovely things for picnic's, bbq dinner and of course the most essential marshmellows. So watch this space as we will return in two weeks with lots of lovely pics around the zoo.

We are still settling into our new place. I can't wait to have fun with the garden. We are also looking forward to Easter. We are hosting an egg hunt in the back yard in the afternoon. This May we are having a party for Timothy on the Sunday, it is also Mother's day but we will do mummy things in the morning. The party's theme this year is fireman and fire trucks. I truelly believe I will need some wood in the constuction this year. As I don't think I can build a fire truck just out of cardboard that would survive. The foozles are too heavy. This year we have Nonna coming for the birthday so that will be loads of fun.

Then at the end of May we are off to Sydney for Ben's brothers wedding. Should be great fun, as it is in Manly, near the beach. Auntie Jane is watching the foozles. We are also hoping to come to the UK just after the wedding. We are still waiting for Ben's work to give the ok. Should be soon though as it has been put off three times now.

We also had an awesome time recently with my big sisters coming to Bathurst for a visit and the foozles cousin Felix too. It was lots of fun, showing them around all the tasty and beautiful things we have here. We took them to annies ice cream parlour that has been here since my mother was a little girl. We went to the fancy country fruit, who even stocks stilton, yum. And had a look at the lovely gardens.
