Mountain Biking

It has been a good month of mountain biking, with some great rides (including night rides) to train for the 12 hour race, and some nice rides since. The 12 hour was great fun. I did it as part of a team this year, which was alot more socialable then going around on your own. Since then, we have had some great rides around Kalamunda. We have put together a 28 km 'loop', which includes the new Kalamunda Curcuit- a great track which at present includes about 12 km of single track and some nice features. It is a great part of the world!

Morning at Mettams Beach

It was predicted to be 40oc today, so we made our way down to the local beach for an early swim.

Carols by candlelight

We all went to the Carols by Candlelight concert at Richard's school on the weekend.

Flying a kite

One of the local parks had a 'Kids Day Out' with a variety of free activities. One of them was kite making and flying, I made the kite and Jackson had fun flying it.

Climbing the slide... the WRONG way!

The slippery slide

Jackson got a 'slippery slide' for his birthday which we got out this afternoon, both him and Jo love it!

Eyelashes

People often comment on the length of Jo's eyelashes, which you can see here in this photo.

Jackson's 3rd Birthday!

Jackson enjoyed his 3rd birthday yesterday. We had a lovely relaxing day at home, followed by a family BBQ in the afternoon.

Washing the cars

Jack definitely enjoyed helping Rich wash the cars on the weekend. He must be very proud of his work as every time we have gone out since he has remarked on how clean the car is!

Bike ride

We loaded Josie onto the bike seat and Jack went into the trailer for a family bike ride. It was Josie's first time on the bike, and she seemed to love it, she spent most of the time talking to herself, while Jack spent his time taking pictures from inside the trailer. Jack's pictures...
