Fun with La

As it has become a annual tradition of ours to be with Alara for her birthday, this year was no exception - especially with a sibling on the way! But it was La's day and we did lots of special things together.



Most important part of the day - presents!

Uncle Brad gets Married

Uncle Brad and Tanya got married a couple weeks ago, Tanya was a blushing bride and Brad was a gleaming groom. Kida and Toby didn't miss out either being flower girl and page boy.

The newest Mr & Mrs Excell

Dad's new wheels

The time had come when we bid farewell to our trusty ol' red ute and upgraded to a more family friendly version




Steve was a bit excited with the purchase as it was the first time he forked out more than $500 for a ute!
