More birthday love - Poppy and Max!

I'm Two!!

Ask Poppy these days and she will tell you - I'm two!! We had a great celebration a visit to the tube park (thanks for coming big girls Stiffy, Nancy and Ginny!), and it was all topped off with a special visit from Grandpa Lou and Aunt Donna, and of course some quality time with her bestie MAX!!

AUSTRALIA 2013

We were so lucky to be able to go to Australia and spend invaluable time with our amazing family, we can't thank you enough for getting us there and taking the time to make so many amazing memories - the spice bar, the ginger factory, the boat shed, Jaws, meatballs, My kitchen rules with the Bella sisters, Asahi, playing pool, water fights, trains, the best 2 year old birthday party ever and bop it! I tried to narrow it down - but there were just too many great photos...

A quick stop at Camping Country (Rohan's amazing employers when he worked on the Sunshine Coast) and we made it into Jarrod's blog. We had a great catch up and met up for dinner, this time with less pints and more kids in tow! How things can change over 10 years. check out the link below:

Happy Birthday Popstar!!

We have been away so slacking a bit on the posts - Poppy just celebrated her second birthday and ended up with 48 hours of birthdays after all of us getting stuck in Sydney on our way home from Australia. We can hardly believe that she has grown up so much, we have loved and cherished every single moment of having her with us. She has such an amazing bright personality, we cant wait to see what the years ahead bring!
