Dust and more dust

About 4.00pm today as we looked out to the south west we saw this dust storm approaching over the hills. Not a lot of wind with it and it passed over very quickly and left us with cooler temps and blue skys. They are not predicting any rain til late March, so will have to be patient for a bit longer

The Hunter and The Bruised!

Whyalla update:

Last (last) Saturday Stuart went out fishing at 4am with the other Assistant Principal. And the hunter not only caught a fish, but he cleaned it and then cooked it for his family for tea.

Also, last Sunday night I lead worship and was playing tambourine for one song. This is what my leg looked liked after the service!!!

I hope that you are all well. Big hugs and kisses to you all.

The OFFICIAL Post

We are having a baby. A real live for real baby!

Details so far. I will be 14 weeks on Tuesday. My due date is the 19th of August. I have already had one scan in Adelaide back on the 4th of Feb and they told us that so far the baby looks completely NORMAL (we love that word). This is a photo from that scan.

I am having another scan in Adelaide on the 17th of March, where they will be able to check the baby over in greater detail.
I have made a video for our internet friends that you can see here and now I am very tired, because I sacrificed a lot of rest time to video myself having rest times :P



Love and hugs to you all. I hope that you are all well. Looking forward to hearing some positive news on the house hunting front mum and dad. Hope that everything falls into place for your visit Lindy/kids. Really exciting that you could be here in August. God bless,
-Debbie

We have another Soul Connection Concert coming up in two weeks. Resident Alien is playing again and some of you may be pleased to know we are doing another Switchfoot song, We Are One Tonight. I know we didn't get any video of the last ones, but you never know..... maybe this time : ) Love to all

Hey Isaac and John, Calvin had a hair cut too

At last!

Happy wedding anaversery Mum and Dad!! Hello all, hope everyone is well.
At last I have the computer to myself and some time to get familer with all that is new. Mike went to work at 6.30 this morn to spend time on the estemated 900 emails that await him after a lovely long break. Annie was out at 5:30 to go jogging for the second time this week with Hannah...good on her .. I dont know how long she will keep it up but I'm impressed :) Both kids have had a happy and smooth start to the school year, see the happy first day photo and note Zac with reletivly short hair!!
Mike and I recomend the train ride from Melb, such a relaxing way to travel.
So if this works I might find some more photos to share, untill then be safe, love you all, Kezza xx

A Day in the Snow

Hey there hot people!!! Thought we might help you all to cool down with some pictures of our fun day in the snow at Theopolis on Saturday. With us are our friends and their five kids! :)

The year is under way

Hello all. Thought it was time I put something here. Calvin's first full week of kindy seems to have gone better than I expected and he is starting to make friends which is nice. He is quite proud of his new kindy top (as you can see).
The other photos are just cute. Calvin decided today that his friends Sheepy and Monkey should dress up with him and capture bad guys.

Natalie seems to have settled back into school well. She has spelling homework as well as her normal reading homework now, but has got back into the routine quickly. She will start ballet again next week and I'm very pleased that she has gone up a class so we won't have to rush from school any more.

Stuart ... I probably can't really speak on his behalf, but I think that things are going pretty well and he hasn't encountered any dramas yet.

I have managed to fill up my Calvin free mornings, but hope to get into some sort of routine in the next few weeks. A shoulder injury is putting doubts on my plans to study video editing in more depth. Extended time on the computer leaves me rather immobile in in right shoulder and rather painful. But we will be investigating some ways around that.

Hope that you are all well and having a good start to the year.

Love and Hugs, -Debbie

(PS I just found this very cute Rooster in the back yard, which I thought I should share, not to mention the flash of Pink who zoomed past me)
