Wow, I have been slack! I didn't realise I haven't blogged since last year!
There's a lot to catch up on, so bullet points may have to do...
* Geoff and Lyndells wedding in Newy was lovely. and the trip to aus was great as usual. so thankful that it is so easy and cheap to fly over to see the fam/friends! Michael picked us up and we ended up crashing at his new house which was AMAZING. 4 bedrooms AND a pool! lucky bugger!
* Xmas was relatively quiet. Josh and i had a bit of a grump about xmas day because everyone in the family said they had other family members to see/hang out with, whereas we had no where else to go as all my family are in another country. however, in the end, it was a nice day as we lazed around until the arvo, when we headed over to simon and glynny's new house in Mission Bay for a late lunch/dinner. they had just started renovating the new house and it was looking fantastic. I love their style.
mum and dad leys were there, as was victor and barbara, who are always fun to hang out with.
we had great food, wine and then we had a fun $10 and under secret santa. lots of stealing of presents and hoohaaing.
* we had a bit of a scare late that night when we found out that victor had been feeling progressively worse as the night wore on, and had driven himself to the hospital in greenlane. mum and dad leys and josh and i rushed to the hospital to join him (some time around midnight) and they kept him in and did lots of tests to find out if he'd had a heart attack, etc. not sure what it was in the end ( i suspect the food and drink and excitement of the day hadn't helped), but he was finally released the next day. he has been doing gentle excersises and eating healthily and has weaned himself off alot of his medication and is looking fitter than he has in a long time.
* New Years eve was spent at a house party out west at T and Siza's sister's place. It was Grease themed and was a great night. Lots of "pink ladies" and a few john travolta wannabe's :)
