Catching up with Aunties and Uncles

Aunty Byna & Uncle Bernard Thompson were visiting from Dubbo over the weekend. It was a good excuse for the Jaques side of the family to catch up over lunch. Sean, Kate and Elise met Aunty Thelly-Belle, Aunty Gwen, Cousin Adrian, June, Aunty Byna and Uncle Bernard in Ashfield.

More cuddles with Aunty Gwen & Aunty Byna.

Nana and Grandad Edmiston have taken off today for a month long holiday overseas - the lucky ducks!! Off to Italy, France and Spain - (ohhhh big sigh from Kate) How lovely it would be to be there this time of year!!

We are excited because Aunty Meggy is coming to Sydney soon for a week or so. Meg is finally free from Subway and has launched a new career in banking. She is more than ready to embrace the 9-5 lifestyle! We are very happy for her - can't wait also to see the new house!

Sean's 1st Fathers Day

We recently met little Tahlia Ellis born early August - daughter of David and Aruna. Congratulations to them on the arrival of their beautiful little daughter.

Sean was very excited about his first fathers day. Luckily the weather was gorgeous so we could take our fish and chips to Clarkes Point at Woolwich to watch the start of the sailing season (dad's request!)

Nova and Elise had a great time watching a game of touch footy in the park. I think they were both keen to join in!

We are excited because a new cafe has opened a short block away from our house called Rare Treats. We have missed the cafe life of Drummoyne since moving to Melrose Park, so now we are only a short stroll away from regular Chai Lattes and the best thing is there is a dog friendly area outside. Puppycinos, and babycinos (not just yet but soon..) all around! If you come to visit us we can pop in to the cafe!
