2011 signified Nick's last year in Primary school.He always does well in school and this year was no exception. With a trip to Canberra, state representation in swimming, soccer and athletics and awards for public speaking his year has been very successful. The transition to High school will be both exciting and important.

Dad has his 80th Birthday

I put together these photos as a tribute to my dad who was 80 on the 11.11.11.

For the first time in years, the whole family was able to come together to celebrate the event. Emily put together a slide show of Dad's life and after dinner we gathered together to watch it on the big screen. I think dad was quite moved by it all. Following this, cake and champagne were the order of the evening!

More Retrospective Memories

Continuing the theme of looking back in time, I calculated that Emily has attended school for approximately 2550 days over the last 13 years.There have been many achievements, fun filled days, friends and an array of precious memories. Looking back, I wonder where the time has gone! (Cliched but true) The next thirteen years will no doubt see many challenges and changes. Look out!

The Graduate!

Emily had her formal at the Catalina Country Club, Bateman's Bay.It was a fun filled evening. Emily was a revelation; looking elegant in a mushroom and baby blue silk gown! Certainly a stunning transformation for a girl who never wears dresses or makeup!

A School Career in Retrospect

It's very hard to believe that Emily has completed her formal schooling. These photos show the transition from a little kindergarten girl in 1999 to the young lady she is today. We are very proud of her!
