Such a little cutie!

Cameron learnt a heap of songs at the end of last year for his Kindy concert. He of course, then had to sing them to everybody who would listen.

Here is just one of them.



Its not the best quality, sorry. I took the video on my mobile phone :D

Disclaimer: None of the adult voices are mine hahahahaha

New Year Resolutions

Do you ever make any?

I don't!

I figure if you're going to make a change in your life (style etc) that it should be something that is not thought about at the beginning of the year, but, all through the year.

I don't think I know, personally, anyone who has ever made a resolution and stuck to it :D

This year though, I'm acting out of normal behaviour and am going to make a resolution.

My resolution is to make more of an effort with my blogs!

I'm tired of myself being slack so beginning January 1, 2010, I will make more effect to post on both my blogs :D

I'm hoping to surprise myself and stick to it!

Poor Teddy

Gary went outside the other day and asked where my cockatiel had gone.
I thought he was joking.
Nope, he was serious.
One of the little doors was half-way up.
Apparently he can let himself out of the cage.
I went outside and started whistling.
I was sure I could hear him respond.
There he was, under the bbq.
He climbed straight up onto my arm when I went to him.
He had been attacked by birds but at that stage we didn't know what ones.
We thought if magpies or butcher birds, he'd be dead.
So that left the noisy minors as culprits :(




But after he climbed up my arm, he flew off down to the back garden.


As soon as he landed about 6 noisy minors attacked him again.
I ran down to save him, whistling madly.
Finally he came out of hiding amongst the branches on the ground.

He was a bit traumatised and once back in the safety of his cage, only wanted to sleep.

Love on a Wednesday afternoon

I took the boys down to the beach today to play in the park there.As we were walking over to the playground, I could hear loud voices that seemed to be coming from a speaker.

A little further on I came to a small group gathered around 3 other people and figured out I'd walked into a wedding party.

Two were being married by a celebrant and the man was reciting his vows using a microphone and small amp. He was dressed in t-shirt, shorts, thongs and his lady had on a black dressy top and skirt (I think). They had 6 witnesses and seemed to be very happy.

I thought it was so lovely that I could witness their happy moment.

Who cares what the outside looks like when the inside was so pure.
