Well this week weather wise has really been like living in Melbourne on steroids! We've gone from the children being amazed that they can make steam come out of their mouths while walking to school all rugged up, to being in shorts and t-shirts, to having rain bucketing down and of course we can't make it through the week without windburn as well! :)The week has been filled with routine stuff but the highlight by far was the arrival of Howard's parents, Eion and Rosa from Australia. I wished I had captured the moment on film. There were hugs and kisses and more hugs and "I've missed you sooooo much" and more hugs and kisses and boy did my kids talk their poor grandparents' ears off!!! This morning I had to use all my mummy power to keep them out of their grandparents room but eventually I gave in. All you could hear was chatter chatter chatter giggle giggle chatter chatter. Let's hope the novelty wears off or else their grandparents might wear out before their stay is over!
Other news this week is that the kids had the Terry Fox run and we were very proud that both Laura and Nathan managed to run nine laps in the given time. We even had a "Jack Rabbit" join in the run (see photo two). He's often seen hopping about on school property. The jack rabbits are unique in that they turn white in the winter time so I'll have to see if I can snap him again in the colder months for you.
Well it's a short one this week as I have some lovely people I need to be with and Daniel was full of "quotes" this week, so I'll leave you with them.
All our love,
The Eban Clan.
