Colin has joined after school tennis. He is getting better, though he might think the best part is grooming the courts after (tennis zamboni??)

Laura has joined the sailing squad after school. She is loving it!

Colin has started back into Karate for the year.

Laura came back from camp tired but happy. She met lots of friends and had fun at all the high ropes, surfing, hiking, and paddle boarding activities.

Laura headed off this morning to a 4 day camp trip with her year level at school. They are going to be camping (tents for 2 nights and cabins for 2 nights) and learning to surf, body board, and other fun things.

The camp is for all 120 girls in her year level. Thankfully there are some friends from last year going along.

Colin has made so much improvement in his core strength and coordination. Watching him sit and do works with his hands like this is so encouraging.

The kids got fresh haircuts for the start of the school year.

Laura got about 4″ taken off and the whole lot lightened and made more manageable.

Colin has about 1″ off the back and was tidied up.

Today was first day of school. Laura is heading into Senior School in Year 7 and Colin is off to Year 2.

Both were excited and nervous heading to school. Both were tired and happy when they got home.

It was a lovely day at the beach in Ocean Grove on Saturday. The kids love their boogie boards.

We went to Dandenong National Park today and fed cockatoos and took a walk through the forest bird watching.

This is one of my favorite photos of the day.
