Evie loves her little apron from Muzzy — especially the fact that she can fit a little book and a little Elmo in the front pocket while she cooks. Though I’m not sure what Health & Safety would say to the rest of the outfit (nappy + winter crocs + apron = ready to cook in Evie’s book).

Judith (my niece), Richard Alex & Ross over in UK for a visit from Perth, Stayed with us in Oxford for a few days and the weather was great - well actually they thought it a bit chilly but we were sweating! Eating outside but no prawns on the Barbie I’m afraid!
A little bit of competition crept in!! The boys played cricket on our sloping lawn and neither Christian …
… or I could shift Alex. (I’m sure my arm was a bit higher in my prime!)
Then after dinner, lit the chiminea and on with the darts against the garage door ..
Various style employed .. Richard definitely showing signs of a misspent youth
Hannah looking very stylish
and even my Mum joined in!
The girls (Mum, Dianne, Judith, and Hannah) beat the boys (Me, Richard, Alex and Ross) on consecutive nights and the undoubted star was Judith here showing proof of an impressive 66 checkout (treble 8, single ten, double 16) PS Note the Simpsons dart board which was the only one available in Toys R Us!!
Decided we needed reinforcements so called in James Martinelli next day … didn’t help!
Meanwhile Megan up to mischief as usual!
and the excitement was obviously all a bit much for Alexander.
Next day off punting with Hannah and Chloe (Definitely a good decision not to try and take Megan along!!) Punted up to the Viccy Arms for a pint and then back again 
Richard seemed to get the hang of it quite quickly ..
Variable success for the girls. Hannah pretty good ..
Judith very calm at first ..
but then just a few problems!
Then a detour on the way home for a bit of go-karting … Looking very relaxed before the race, with the inevitable good looking woman getting in the picture!!
Boys and their toys getting ready.
and then the final pose on the podium. Fastest lap to Richard but definitely the most spectacular crashes for Alex and Ross!
A really super visit, and now I’m trying to work out if there’s anyway I can justify returning the visit in time for the 3rd Ashes Test at the WACA in December!

Just another day hanging out at the beach — this time in the cabana at the Bel Air Bay Club. Evie shows off her old cowboy hat and her new Indian-style boots. She picked these out herself at Old Navy — she wouldn’t even take them off to pay for them! So Rob just had to rip off the tag and take that up to the till.
