Boats, Kids and Beaches


Yachts docked at the Cobourg Beach. Papa, Mum, Tommy, Sam and Emma -- you will no doubt remember that eventful yacht trip to Nydia Bay all those year ago! To this day, whenever I see a yacht, I remember that so clearly....out on deck hanging on for dear life to that inflatable life raft! Never again. :-)



Matthew (6) and Spencer (3) posing with their "horse" before Matthew's Cowboy Birthday Party. I wasn't here on the day, but helped with preparations.



Monique and I at the Cobourg Beach last night, it was such a beautiful evening, still and warm. On the way home I stopped at Wendy's for a junk food fix (first time I've done that in months!!) and that kind of spoilt the night...I don't think my stomach was very impressed!

Bucky the Baby Raccoon




This little guy is a 7 week old orphaned raccoon that's being hand reared by a lady who lives here at the school. She brought him over this morning for a photo shoot -- isn't he the cutest little guy ever! He was found at 2 weeks old when he had no hair. He uses his paws like hands and feels things all the time....he even cries and sounds like a human baby! Apparently he won't be so cute when he's bigger and will be eventually returned to the wild. I'll post some more photos of him when he gets his bushy hair! :-)
