"Megan Ella"
Another beautiful baby girl born to Jeremy & Emily on the 10th March 2009.
She is a little sister for Jenna & Alyssa.

"Aunty" Alison with Megan Dad hearing the news while in Sydney!

Jenna. She's going to school now! Growing up too fast!
The stunning painting Arty Farty Alison made for Emily. I love it Alison, well done!
Nanna & Pop dropped off Jenna at her first day at school. Then they went to the Dome for coffee. Alyssa looks like she's enjoying every bit!!
SYDNEY!!
No, I didn't go there, but Dad & Alison were there for a week. (I'm so jealous!) Dad emailed me a heap of photos, so I thought I'd share them with you on my blog!

Very fancy!

Sydney Opera House Sydney Harbour bridge. They climbed this at night, right up to the flags. Must have been a great view!You cant forget about these...
or these...
Nice try at hiding the cake behind your coffee cup Ali!
some weird tourist...you can tell by the camera.

Thanks for emailing the photos Dad (and Alison), looks like you had a great time!

MIXTURES OF PICTURES
Marissa Kerkhoff! Growing up so fast.
Her 'smile for the camera' reminded me of Alyssa!

We had some friends over for a braai last night. Hans stayed over and this is how I found him this morning. Nice and cosy with his Jack Russel puppy "Rupert"!
Our Kitchen. I'll get some curtains eventually!
Our 'formal' dining area. Reinier and his study books have taken over at the moment.

The table and chairs arrived this week, and we really enjoy sitting here for our meals! Its joined onto the kitchen, and gets lovely morning sun.
(Mum, I'll put some more photos of the house on eventually. Its pretty difficult to 'capture' it on photos! You'll have to see it in 'real life' some time!) tata...

SABIE MOUNTAIN BIKE RACE
The bike rack we bought for our car. It just clips on, easy!
Our camp site... Psyched and ready to go!! :-)
Hans and Reinier jammed in the queue. They did the 40Km race.
The crazy bunch! They all did the 15Km 'fun ride'. Gideon, Marjolein, Tersa, Werner & Elaine.
Sisters: Marjolein & Tersa
Humpty Dumpty!! Eina!! Apparently she was trying to peel a banana while going down-hill. Clever girl! :-)
Hans & Marjolein
Reinier arriving back very tired & grubby! It was quite a hot day for Sabie!
What a stunning view. We love Sabie!

Sunday Morning. There was this little church just behind the camping grounds, so we went there Sunday morning. It was a Reformed Dominee, and he had a great Sermon! Afterwards there was coffee & cake and we chatted to the people there.
The boys mucking around! Thats Hans stuffed in the tube...

DOGGIES...
It was Winstons first day at School on Saturday, doesn't he look smart with his new hair cut?? Reinier said he was very well behaved, except a Great Dane got off the leash, and Winston was determined to attack it. Typical Terrier!
Reinier giving the dogs a treat! Dont they have good manners? They're sitting so patiently...HUH only because there is FOOD!

Where do I start??
Bundi & Winston, great friends! (Well they were for a while... we had to take the bones off them the next day because they were fighting too much! Both thought they had TWO bones each. Winston was hiding at the back of the house, and Bundi at the front, they wouldn't go near each other! Silly dogs, their loss!)
