Dance Concert 2017

Josie had her dance concert on the weekend.  She performed 4 dances (both Jazz and Tap) to two sell-out audiences on Saturday and Sunday.  I helped backstage on the Saturday and watched on the Sunday.  It was such a good show, and Josie did so well - very proud :)

Camping at Lake Tabourie

We spent 4 nights camping in Lake Tabourie, just north of Batemans Bay, in the second week of the holidays.

Start of the school holidays

The plan was to go camping for the first week of the holidays, but Richard came down with a bad bout of the flu a few days before school broke up, so we postponed that idea and decided to hang at home for the first week. Not a bad place to live really!!
