Welcome to our blog

We both live at Simpsons Gap in the West Macdonnell National Park, Central Australia, the best spot in the NT! Our blog is for friends and family to see how we are going, and to share in what we have been up to throughout the year. Please leave us a comment, and we hope you enjoy!

Above: As I was saying....

Below: Good choice to have a glass table....Windex are doing well.
So right now I'm building Abbey a cubby house - it's a comfy 1 room open air condo tucked away in a leafy backyard, with river frontage. Located close to Mum and Dad, this will sell quickly. In line with Alice Springs property prices, we could probably sell it for $150,000 if we wanted to! I'll upload some pics when I've completed it. Above are some shots of Abbey enjoying her food - she does eat most of it, but some is more fun to play with!

Almost 1.5 years old!

Abbey would follow Jacob anywhere he went!

Checkin' out the scene at the Alice Springs Town Pool with her buddy Jacob

Reading the book Gran made for her about her holiday to Adelaide, Bendigo and Albury


Mowing the lawn in the nuddy with Dad (helping to push anyway because it wasn't actually turned on :))

Playing with her friend Jake in his firetruck... she just jumped in the door behind him ready to go for a ride!

Abbey in the beautiful dress Heather and Bill bought for her before she was even born!

G'day everyone, just thought I'd update all of our far away family with some of our latest Abbey shots... something different! We've been keeping pretty quiet and looking forward to the weather cooling down in the next month or two. I'm working 3 days a week now and Abbey is loving daycare and all the fun and friends there. We are really looking forward to visiting in April/May for Papa and Mum's birthdays (90 & 50) as well as the arrival of Nathan and Kim's first baby (which they will call Tahlia... hmm I better find out how to spell that!) Speaking of big birthdays - I'm turning 30 this year too, wow!
