Australia Day Fun

Hi Everyone

Well the family went to our great friends Kerri and Adams yesterday for a great party. We has an absolute ball. We introduced my Swedish BIL brother who just arrived in Aus to a great aussie day! We arrived and were given a choice of aussie hats, headbands, key rings, tattoos and stubbie coolers. The house was decorated with flags as well.

We shared the day with friends and met some new people, we sang, we played cricket in the street, played pool, played in the swimming pool, ate and drank. Although was the designated driver so it was Coke and water for me.

There were heaps of kids and they all played brilliantly together!

After being sick and lying low for so long it was great to get out and share some time with friends.

Thanks for a great day guys.

Here are some of the shots from the day. I took heaps and heaps of shots but havent sorted through them all yet.

Hope you have a great week.
