A Jolly Holiday with Family

Yes. I have not posted in a while. I haven't even posted about Grandpa and Grandma coming over for a visit! I am sadly guilty. Please forgive me. 
But now that we have been to the Great Barrier Reef, I must put off this business of non-posting. Enjoy!



                                   


Does this next photo remind you of another photo? To make it easier, I'll put that photo up along with this one...

 Maybe I should put up an album of photos titled: "Mum and Dad; aka the Thinkers"

Just us cool people chillin' with gingerbeer, coke and coffee, in the small town of seventeen seventy.



    
    







 I like this one of Grandma!



Getting ready to go on the Lady Musgrave. :)




I find this one so funny... 



Poor Mum and Caleb having trouble walking around the tossing boat - didn't quite get their sea legs!


On the island.



A cute little blue-spotted lagoon ray.


A few of the next photos are Grandpa's photos. I was too busy half the time snorkeling to take any photos. :) Unfortunately we didn't have an underwater camera. I tell you though, it was beautiful. 







This is where I took over the camera. 




Look at that beautiful rainbow fish!




Highlight of the trip for me would probably be swimming with a sea turtle! It was so cool!

Photos on a Sunday Afternoon

On Sunday my family and I went to a pro-life meeting and near the building there were beautiful flowers begging to have their photos taken. I couldn't resist (also I incidentally had my camera with me)!
I love nasturtium. You can eat it and it looks simply gorgeous. 


I think the focus on the next one is cool. ?


This photo makes me think of poppies. 
"In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below..."
I didn't even have to look that up. Aren't I clever. :)









 The colors on the next one are lovely, I think.

A Book and Pizza

This term for Co-op we did Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice. I took these photos a little while ago. Thought I'd share them. :)








Caleb, Isaac and I went to the park early in the morning this morning and played soccer, handball, basketball, catch, the like for 2 hours. It was quite fun! Unfortunately I have no photos of that.

This evening we - Irene, Caleb, Isaac and I - made pizza, and I do have photos of us eating it! We had a great time. We also had the temporary excitement of our oven being on fire! I guess it short-circuited?  But anyway, when we turned it off it wouldn't stay off. It smoked a bit and had a bit of flame. That's all. We made the rest of the pizzas in our kind neighbours' oven. They tasted delicious!






P.S. Nearly the holidays!! :D
