Some fun in the sun..........

We live in such a beautiful place! Over 6 weeks ago now Nathan and I went on a date to Currumbin Beach - It was such a beautiful day and we loved spending time together, enjoying the sun and a lovely walk on the beach.... In fact we love it so much we went back the next day with Nathan's parents! We had such a wonderful day with them. We went to Currumbin Wildlife Santuary and also the beach. Thanks Mom and Dad for a wonderful day. It was great to spend time together before Mom took off to South Africa for a few months........

Here is Mom and Dad enjoying the refreshing ocean walk along Currumbin.......... I tell you Nathan is one lucky guy!

I am not sure if this kangaroo is getting a tan or playing dead! A guy walked up to him and scared the roo. It was pretty funny.

What a cute and happy couple!! Life couldnt be better!

Mom and Dad in the rainforest section of the Wildlife park - The birds in here were beautiful.

Dad and Freya - It was lovely to be able to spend the day with dad. We miss him so much when he is away in the Outback.

This bird was CRAZY - Nathan got a photo real close and so I went to get one aswell. As I bent down is made the loudest noise and I jumped so far! It was very amusing for all the on lookers..... I've never jumped so far in my life. Mom, Dad and Nathan were laughing so hard.

Have you ever seen a Tree Kangaroo?? I had never seen one before and dont even think I have heard of one either! Well for those who havent here is a picture of one!

" "Never smile at a crocodile!" I guess I am just looking for trouble!

The Koala's were so cute - If you look closely in this photo you can see a baby cuddled up to the mother.


We had a wonderful day all together. It was great to get out and about and enjoy the beauty around us! Uni is almost over for Nathan and it's also drawing to the end of the school year so hopefully we will be able to have more days like this one.......

James and Amy's Wedding

Last Friday we went to James and Amy's wedding. It was such a beautiful day. They were so happy. It was wonderful to be there to celebrate this special day with them.


This photo is a little dark........ Just wanted to show the beautiful cake that mum made. She is so talented. I have one clever mum that is for sure!

Nathan and I had a great time at the wedding and cant belive that it has now been 7 months since our wedding. Time flies when you are having fun!

Gemma's Birthday

Yesterday was Gemma's birthday. Mom spoiled us and we ordered some Thai takeaway and took it and ate it by the river(Thank you Mom you are always so thoughtful and kind to us - we love you!) We then went to the movies, followed by a walk along the river. We had so much fun together.

Nathan and Freya in a tree!


Gav and Gem up a tree - I was so impressed with how high they got!!

Mom with the boys!

A fun filled night together!!

September Birthdays

This month we had so many birthday in the family Mum(Kerry), then Karen, then Dad (Bryn) then Gemma. So that we could celebrate them all we had everyone come to our house for lunch. It was really lovely having everyone over. These photos have turned out really small for some reason? Not sure why!
Banana birthday cake with sparklers.



The boys were under the table being some form of animal and waiting for the cake!

Granma Kerry with Bryn. We are so lucky to have such a great mum and granma. Thanks Mum for all you do, we love you!

Sleepover at Aunty Freya and Uncle Nathan's!!!

Last week we had Will and Ewen come and stay the night at our house! They had been counting down the days to come and so had we. We took out all my dinosaur games, books, puzzles etc (teaching comes in handy) and had so much fun together. We also set up our tent in our bedroom and the boys loved sleeping in it! We took them to church with us the next day and they were perfect. They both sat on Nathan's lap and were so well behaved. They love their Uncle Nathan. We are the luckiest Aunty and Uncle in the world.

Sleeping so soundly in the tent. They both wanted a toy to sleep with so I had to go through boxes and found my rabbits for them to cuddle.
They were so cute in their matching PJ's and best of friends!

Our 6 Month Anniversary!

We have been married for 6 Months! Time has gone by so fast. On Friday (28th August) we celebrated 6 months of marriage! I got up early before seminary to make some cinnamon rolls for Nathan......... Not having enough time to rise fully they were a flop! But we still enjoyed them for breakfast with a fruit smoothie to was it down!! The last 6 months have been great and we are looking forward to many more. I love you Nathan!

Singapore

A few weeks ago I got a call from Sarah telling me that Jeremy had to go to the USA for a conference for work for a week so they flew me over to Singapore to be with Sarah, Crew and Daisy for the week. I got the call on Monday and left Tuesday! I had a lovely week with Sarah (if felt like the good old days in Idaho....... I used to stay at her house when Jeremy would go out of town for Business. Only this time I am married and it was hard to be away from Nathan. Next time he will have to come with me! Here are a few pictures from my time in Singapore!
This was a Temple we went to visit. In China Town!

This is the View from Sarah's apartment. It is amazing...... The weather was so hot so we enjoyed being outdoors in the pool! They live on the 18th Floor of this highrise and one of the days the experienced the after shock of a earthquake in a near island. The building was swaying and it was the scariest thing! But we are still alive to tell the tale.


This was a yummy meal that Sarah and I made.......

This was a traditional Sinagpore dish 'Chicken Rice' it was pretty good - We went to a Hawkers Market where they have several stalls to buy food. It was great.

Last of all Crew! What a cute baby he is. It was so much fun to meet him and get to know him a little. He is such a stud! Thank you Sarh and Jermey for a great week. I miss you guys!

The Natural Bridge

This Saturday we went for a little hike and beautiful scenic drive to the natural bridge!
We went with our friends Tina and Zane. They were married 1 week before Nathan and I. We have loved spending time with them. They are a great couple.........lots of fun!

Nathan likes action shots - sorry to catch you eating Zane. We enjoyed a picnic lunch in the great outdoors of Australia!

It was such a beautiful day - We love the outdoors and are looking forward to more hikes in the future. We have planned to take day trips and explore the great country we live in!!

Our Honeymoon in Noosa!

Here are a few pictures from our honeymoon. I know our photo's our out of order but soon we will catch up and start posting things as they happen! We spent about 4 days away in Noosa for our Honeymoon. Nathan plan and prepared it all and it was perfect! This is us on the beach showing our rings and not really beliving that was are actually married.

We stayed in a self contained apartment and cooked our meals together. Nathan prepared some great things on the BBQ. Look at the view.........


This was one of our yummy meals.....

And lots of choices for breakfast......

Nathan sitting down to an evening meal. Everything was so nice in our apartment. We loved it.
This hot tub was on our balcony. It was fantastic as it overlooked the ocean - very relaxing.

This is a veiw of the apartment, then there was a beadroom, kitchen, laundry.... All self contained and new. Nathan did a great job with this place.

We loved spending our days swimming in the ocean and walking along the beach at night. We had perfect weather. As you can see it was beautiful.

One night Nathan caught a fish! He still cant belive that it is safe to walk along the beaches at night here in Australia - it is one of our favourite things to do.
This is what we rode up to get to our room. Just getting to our room was fun......

We had a lovely time and are so excited to be married to each other. After the honeymoon it was back into Uni, work and real life! Which has been new adventures. It has been a busy few months. Nathan completed a good semester of uni. Freya has been busy teaching and also been called as Seminary teacher (6am every morning!) Nathan also just got his Queensland Licence making him feel more at home in Australia. Life is busy, but also great!
