Good Friday

Aunty Beck helps Em get to the wind chimes...

On Good Friday we went to Mum and Dad's place for Mum's home-made hot cross buns - three different kinds this year!! (Oh, and Jared and Emmy loved the new sand in Grandma's sandpit!)

Portrait - March, 2006

We had some family photos taken for a fundraiser...

Jared & Emmy together...

Jared and Emmy love to play together - especially with the same toys!! They also love wrestling on the floor and other rough games - usually instigated by Emmy! She loves to chase Jared and tackle him!

Emmy at 21 months...

Emmy is just crazy at the moment!! Poor Jared finds her very hard to deal with - she is very fussy and likes everyone to do exactly what she wants them to do - all the time - we are having lots of tantrums!!

Jared's 3rd Birthday!

Jared had a great 3rd birthday party - everything was about Lightning McQueen - the little red racing car from the Cars movie which Daddy and Jared both love!

Emmy's Big Girl Bed

Emmy has been able to climb out of her cot for a while now - so when she was see-saw-ing every time we put her to sleep we decided to get her a bed...she was so excited she did little happy dances all over the place!

Valentine's Day...

Mum and Dad offered to look after Emmy and Jared while we went to The Hermitage for dinner... Emmy had to wear her Valentine's Day outfit with her 'Ruby Red Dorothy' shoes... see The Food Bog for the dinner photos...

Emmy at 20 months...

Emmy is still as crazy as ever - she loves to run, jump, climb and yell...

her favourite words are 'apple', 'bee' and 'nooo'!!!

Our Tenth Wedding Anniversary - Fiji

For our tenth wedding anniversary we went to Fiji for three nights, staying at the beautiful Westin on Denarau Island...Mum and Dad stayed at our place with Jared and Emmy. http://www.starwoodhotels.com/westin/property/overview/index.html?propertyID=202ty/overview/index.html?propertyID=202

We couldn't believe the view from our balcony - it was just like a postcard! We had such a great time - the weather was really hot and humid - perfect for swimming. We also went on a cruise out to Mana Island and went snorkelling - which we loved!





Each night we went to dinner somewhere different
