November 2015

November, right.
I remember it raining a lot. Maybe because we went to two outdoor concerts and it rained at both of them.

First up was AC/DC. When in Australia, you go to see their biggest rock band. It was a lot of fun and we had seats where everyone just stayed put and huddled under their rain gear. The rain wasn't too bad and came and went. Brought back some fun high school memories.

Second concert was Florence in the Machine - I love them.
I remember asking Jamie years a go now who sings that song Shake it Out and I have been loving them ever since.
They played on the steps of the Opera House, very cool.

Always birds. We don't have any pets, so the birds will have to do.

Keeping the little guys entertained during soccer training.

New camera! For my birthday, anniversary, Christmas, you name it this year, I upgraded my camera. I went with the Cannon 70D, it's awesome and I'm still getting use to it. It's a lot of camera.

I practicing with the birds.

October 2015

At the beginning of October with a warm sunny spring day on our side we took the ferry over to Patonga with friends. We went for a swim and had lunch at the local beach hotel. Very fun day.

Caught up with Ben's Mothers group at Clareville to celebrate the little ones turning four.

Nipper season started.

Rainy spring day.

Halloween!

Hoo Hoo...
This wasn't Halloween, but earlier in the month. Every now and then we get a owl visit.

I knitted Ben a jumper (sweater), my first!

Jamie and I celebrated 10 years in September!
We would celebrate in December with a night away.
Back in September I did start a folder of pictures of us from the last ten years, with every intention of writing a heartfelt post.......Hmmm......

These are the pictures I gathered.

It's pretty awesome being married to this man. It's mostly a lot fun. We sure know how to push each others buttons and annoy one another, but I couldn't image doing life with anyone else.  Love him.
