Hen's Night



I haven't had a lot of luck trying to put up new posts, so i'm still trying, even though it will still be late.
Friday 5th Feb...
We celebrated Hay's last days as a single girl by have a girl's night in, hosted by Georgie, Erin and myself. We had lots of fun playing sing star and drinking mocktails and painting each others nails.

PS Danny, the peachy's that Georgie was making up, blew bundaberg out of the water!

How does it end...

... with a wedding!

The boys look a little stressed waiting for the bridal party to show up. And rightly so considering we were about 75 minutes late. Sorry guys, what the bride wants the bride gets.








Pani looks like a pro with that camera.


Wally, Peter, Steve and Dad.





Dad, Steve, Logan and Orrin.


Ladies put your hands up! Sarah, Mum, Mana, Lauren, Tia and Pani.




Brothers and sisters
We look a bit like a pyramid at the moment, but Orrin and Pani will definitely overtake the older generation in height. I hated my shoes by this time and soon lost them.










The happy couple



Erin, Georgie and I
Thanks for being such great bridesmaids guys, you did a fantastic job with the Hen's night and all the wedding arrangements. Not everyone would have handled the stress of last minute decisions as you did. Thank you for making Hayley and Ben's big day such a success.

I don't have a picture of Tash, Ben's sister, but thank you so much, and your family, for your help with everything. It wouldn't have come together without you. Cheers to you, our stealthy little photographer!

























Congratulations Hayley and Ben, we wish you all the best at the start of your life together.

Auntie Hay comes to visit












Sticky strands of web from a glow worm. We actually saw one strike it rich by catching a luscious moth for dinner.




Hayley makes a new friend. This little guy was really brave! The shrimp in the caves don't have eyes cause they don't need to use them, and have evolved that way. Waste not want not.




Caving was awesome, but exhausting. In the summer time it is the perfect temperature and also interesting to see the formations a little drier than normal. After all that though, I still prefer the adventure of crawling through water and climbing over waterfalls which are more prolific in the winter months. Thanks Paul!



So while hay's been here we have managed to squeeze in some caving into our daily activities, but most of the time the kids just want to play 'Duck, duck, goose' with her and stuff in the back yard. Hay is teaching Jai a few things on the guitar and Ardy loves the teddy she knitted for him.
