Zoo

Another great morning at the zoo.

At home

Lots of playing at home, building towers with blocks and knocking them down.

Playground

Decorating the tree

One of my favourite things to do around Christmas is to decorate the tree.  The kids also loved decorating with me.

Pre School photos

These are Sebastian's first pre school photos.

Beach

More trips to the beach while the weather is so warm.

Visiting Santa

We took the annual trip into the city to visit Santa.  While we were waiting in the queue, the kids coloured in their letters to Santa and posted them to him.  Hannah didn't want anything to do with Santa, she kept saying she doesn't like Santa, so Mummy had to get in the photo too.  Neither Hannah nor Sebastian wanted to smile in the photo, no matter what the fairies did. 

Beach

A quick stop by the beach on our way home.  They just love it here.
 

Queensland Holiday

We spent 5 days in Queensland visiting the Gold Coast and Mooloolaba.  First stop was Sea World where the kids had a great time watching the dolphins, polar bears, seals and sharks. We also managed to go on one ride and it was priceless, the photo of us going down the big slide in the log boat says it all. So much fun.

Below is the view from our apartment overlooking the Gold Coast.

We left the Gold Coast and drove up to Mooloolaba.  I absolutely love this place.  It was such a shame we only had 2 days here, I could have stayed a lot longer.  The kids had a great time at the beach and then enjoyed the monster sized cookie afterwards.

We met some friends at Australia Zoo for a great day seeing all the animals.  It was a scorching hot day so we tried to stay in the shade as much as we could. The main attraction for the kids were all the crocodiles. 

These kids are the best travellers which makes it so easy to go anywhere with them. Although they weren't too happy that we had to go home.
