Nate and Marshall's birthdays

I created this post ages ago but havent got round to typing in the text. So here it is now three weeks later and we have heaps of more things to blog so ill keep this snappy. We had Nate and Marshall's birthday and Dette once again excelled in the cake.

We also had the traditional BBQ for Kevin at David and Maries. Ripper Day.

Gardening

The sad passing of Ruben has meant that the back garden is significantly less poo riddled. It does however have a bit more wee with the boys taking great joy in weeing on the bushes instead. They also enjoy teasing Amelia who finds that a bit trickier.

As a consequence of no landmines we have been labouring away trying to sort out the neglected garden. Four trips to the tip later it is looking a lot better but will need a few more weekends to get it perfect. We also need to seed some of the paths that Ruben ran around the garden and mulch the garden beds.

Unfortunatley we didnt take before photos but believe me this is 500% better, dette has RSI from cutting brambles and pulling weeds.

Apologies for the legs!

The new car arrives in a week, a Kia Grand Carnival Premium. This is going to be so much better as there is heaps of room in the back and electric sliding doors! The kids are excited as it is fitted with a big DVD player and were excited by the leather.
