Bringing 2019 to a close

Christmas 2019 was a relatively quiet one in comparison to most, we travelled to Middleton to celebrate the Excell Christmas the weekend before 

Excell Girls

Annie, Eva & Kida

Excell Boys

Toby, Bentley, Davy & Beau

Heinrich Christmas was 50% capacity but it was 100% full of fun!

Toby's birthday as always marks the beginning of our Summer Holiday in Kingston and it was great to see the Steif St crew again!

Toby's cake choice, Sponge with cream, strawberries and honeycomb

  

First of many street parties!

Opportunity of a Lifetime

Whilst we were in Sydney we were contacted from our local Woolworths Blast Cricket Centre, they had been chosen to go to the Adelaide Test between Australia and Pakistan and play some cricket skills and drills during the tea break. 

Not one to miss out on this- Steve took Beau & Davy along and while they did do the game & skills during the break, the kids group was chosen to high five and welcome the Aussie players back onto the field!!

Waiting patiently.....

Whoo Hoo!!

Steve had a gathering at our shearing shed to celebrate his birthday, it was a great night with plenty of family and friends, 

but not any photos..... 

But most importantly we got one of the cake!

Uncle Bing kicked off the Birthday celebrations with tea and cake at our house

Into November and we made our annual road trip to Sydney to celebrate the girls birthday. 

We even had a stowaway with Steve coming along for the ride! 

Decorate your own cupcake

Big hit with the kiddies

Yummo!!

2nd Cake of choice, chocolate overload!!

The next day Steve awoke a FORTY Year Old!!

Our gift was go into the city and climb the Harbour Bridge 

Naturally he couldn't do this all by himself so I volunteered to accompany him!

After bad weather delayed our original climb - we finally made it !!

As always we conclude our trip with a stopover at Echuca for Lexie

our first Teenager!!

Ever helpful present opener Annie....
