Today was Lissa's Last fast breaker and the most of the YSA from Werribee and Point Cook turned up, Can the house take 30 quests, yes it can.






During the Fast Breaker we went off for Lissa to be set apart as a Missionary. What a great send off she got.



Morning at Alamanda

Each morning I get a chance to take a walk, I head down to the back of Alamanda to the birds and see the bird and the country side. take about 30 minutes to do the circuit.


This morning it was a beautiful morning and with the iPhones new Panoramic shot, I got the mode exactly.

Oh a beautifull day to a beautifull day.

Gemma-ann's 25 Party

Yes, Gemma Ann is now 25 years young. So we gave her a surprise party, likely to me the last time that all the family are together for a while.

We arranged for Gemma-Ann to go out to the movie's with Lissa we got ready. A lot of Gemma Ann's friends from the east side of town came, and we enjoyed making pizza's and having fun.

It was fun for all with some not leaving until after midnight.







St Erth, Blackwood

This week was the first day of spring so we went to Blackwood to see St Erth. This is Diggers Club garden.

We went to early. Spring in Blackwood is still about 3-4 weeks away.. but we can see the potential for it to be a great garden.


Lissa goes to the temple

As the song goes,

" I want to see the temple, I'm going there someday"

Well finally Lissa, got to go to the temple.
With her mission call, has meant she could go to the temple.

So on Saturday 12 August, after Jennifer had made her Temple dress, Lissa got to go.

It was a special day for her and us.
