Swimming lessons, stealing cookies, turning 30, and turning 60

In the order listed above... So proud watching Daniel happily try everything, given that 6 months ago he was pretty scared of putting his head under. He even blew bubbles underwater in the first lesson! This bench is the perfect height for Nick to peek over. "You AREN'T going to take this from me, are you?" Hmmm, is there any more of that choc cupcake left? Aunty Sharon turned 30. I'm happy she's in my decade, but apparently it didn't feel that way to her, even though we made her a big sprinkly '30' cookie!! Happy Birthday Sharon, thanks for being my friend as well as my sister (and babysitter, and housekeeper and the predictor of my every move... yeah, I know I will always owe you) :) My Dad turned 60 - thanks Dad for being such a great example and encourager through my whole life, even when I met a crazy Australian guy and moved to the other side of the world. You are a Godly man and I love you so much. Sorry bout you being old now.

Love you so much Sarah! Sometimes it hurts to have you so far away. But it was still the right decision for you. Yup, I qualify as old now. If I could loose a bit of weight, I would feel a bit younger. DAD

You can tell how much your family loves each other. Not only from these pictures but from how you talk about them. I'm glad to see you guys are doing so well. miss you
