A perfect Autumn Afternoon

Last Saturday afternoon we hosted a BBQ for two exchange familes; The Hodges Family from Cornwall in the UK and the Knights Family from Collingwood, Ontario.
The afternoon began with the arrival of Mariana & Greg Knights - we all cooed over their new baby girl - tiny Julia. Once Tim and his family arrived we headed for the beach. The afternoon could not have been more perfect and Em & Tim headed out back to catch some of the larger waves. Tim's son, Jack and Nick & Max had a bit of a surf, skim boarded and generally enjoyed the water. As for me, I took the opportunity to have a snuggle with baby Julia whilst her mother took her two little girls for a swim. John enjoyed showing Greg & Holly how to surf - they did quite well for greenhorns from inland Canada!
afterwards, we caught up with Judy & John and enjoyed a balmy night on the deck eating and drinking! All Saturday nights should be like this!
