Surf Patrol followed by Crab Racing

Richard had a surf patrol yesterday, then following his patrol the club were running crab races.  Josie entered a crab, who she called 'Star', and Star then won his heat and Josie a prize.  Good fun.

More beach time

More selfie silly photos

Light to Light Walk

We, along with our close friends, went for a short walk along the Light to Light track south of Eden a few days ago, lovely walk, superb scenery.

Christmas Day shenanigans

We had a great Christmas Day.  Lots of food, presents and great company.  Here is a photo with the new selfie stick - love it!

Christmas Day Community Lunch

For the third year running a group of local friends have put on a Christmas Lunch for those people who may otherwise have nowhere to go on Christmas Day.  This year, we decided to help out.  So we spent a few hours welcoming people as they arrived, showing them to their seats, chatting, serving their food and handing out presents.  This event is a credit to those who run it, such amazing community spirit.

Christmas Eve excitement

We had our usual takeaway dinner at Bar Beach on Christmas Eve, the kids were super excited, especially as they received a call from Santa just as he was about to board his sleigh.

This boy LOVES just LOVES to surf

Wonder where he gets that from?!

Yay for the first day of school holidays!!

Josie in the Merimbula News Weekly

Josie made the local paper, some of the kindergarten graduation class from Merimbula Public School, 2015.

He's making a list, he's checking it....

....twice!!

This is Josie (in the middle with santa hat and red top, like all the others!) singing on stage at Magic Mountain with the school for the Carols by Candlelight on Friday night.  They sung 'Silver Bells' then 'Santa Claus is Coming to Town'.

School Presentation Day and Kindergarten Graduation

I can't believe another school year is nearly over!

It was the school presentation day and kindergarten graduation today.  Jackson got a class award - he got it for 'Outstanding Application and Achievement in English', and Josie graduated from kindy.  Big day for both of them!  Very proud.

Gymnastics

Josie had her final gym performance yesterday, she did so well, and she got awarded 'Most Improved' for her class.

Face Painting

We had my work Christmas party on the weekend, and my boss's wife painted the kids faces.  They look super cool.
