LET'S P A R T Y ! ! !

Australian Football is the blog theme at the moment, so bear with me. All will be revealed in this post!!

We arrived in Australia to Football mania, and this was particularly relevant to Roger and myself because our team - The Geelong Cats - were second on the ladder and doing particularly well.

So, during September they had all the preliminary finals of the various teams who were on top of the ladder. The Geelong Cats made it to the Grand Final. This was held on Saturday 26 September and Roger and I were ready to PARTY!!! It was a real family affair, with only Tom missing as HE WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO ACTUALLY BE AT THE GAME!!!

There was lots of noise, lots of food, lots of decorations and lots of people. Even Peach the dog managed to join in the fun of the day.

It was a a very good tense Grand Final, coming down to the last minutes of the game. The rest is history. The pictures will tell the story!!


Here's Jocelyn, my niece Heidi, great nephew Zephyr and Roger cuddled up on the couch!

Roger and Amy in the loungeroom having a toast to something! Note the impressive decorations!
