WESTLIFE!!!!!!

Lastnight Ben came home from work and sprung Westlife tickets on me!!!! We had less than an hour to finish cooking tea, eat, get ready and get to the train but we made it!

They were so awesome live. It really made you appreciate how much all 4 of them bring to group, not just the main 2 you always seem to think about on the albums.

In the middle they did a tribute to their 'inpirations' from before they were together - Backstreet Boys, Boyzone and Take That - singing one each of their songs. It was so funny, especially the dance moves that went along with them!

They announced it was coming to the end of their show, sung another song and left the stage. I was feeling a bit gutted because I REALLY wanted to hear Flying Without Wings (our wedding song :) ) live. After a few minutes of darkness and a whole lot of screaming they had done a costume change and came back out with 'The Rose' and finally....Flying Without Wings!!! I was soooo excited and it was an amazing way to end the night.

February....

Dani doing what she does best....getting into trouble!!! This time she decided her hair needed moisturising!

Last weekend we spent Saturday at Homebush (Olympic Park) where we had lunch, went to the playground and fed the ducks/eels/pelicans. The kids thought it was pretty cool there weren't just ducks at this pond! Jared was especially fascinated by the pelicans (who were hilarious to watch trying to eat bread!), which he called geese.

We went on to Paramatta Westfield for a look then up to visit Mandy and Dom for a bit.

It was soooo exciting to learn that Mandy is pregnant but sad they are moving back to Nelson in July.

Sunday we had a family round for lunch from down the street then we headed to North Sydney pools for a swim with Mandy and Dom, followed by fish and chips for tea.

A very busy weekend!!

Today was Zac's 1st birthday party!

We went to Rouse Hill Park for lunch, cake, playing...the usual party stuff. It was VERY hot and we were ready for the airconditioning by 2pm!

The birthday boy and his family

Tonight we have Pete and Sam Kristofski arriving from Nelson.

Sam is moving over to study and is going to live with us for a while. Jared has been kind enough to lend him his room and he is going to share with Dani for a while. We have been busy getting the rooms ready and the kids have been very helpful :)
