Happy Birthday Old Man!

OK so Marc hates me calling him old man. I guess the more it annoys the more I try to push the buttons.
Today Marc is 45. It was hilarious this morning. The kids went in to sing happy birthday to dad. The second photo shows them as they suddenly went into the clapping for each year after the happy birthday song. They all clapped and counted to ......46. I don't think Marc even noticed he was still stunned I think that they did the clapping for each year.
The other photo is a picture of Liam's lovely painting he did for Marc. The photo does not do it justice, it is amazing. He is a very talented artist.

Comedian Jack

Yes Ok I have a few pairs of glasses. Lol Jack you really are a funny kid!!

Hopeless

Meet our cat Hopeless. Jack has renamed Sully due to his extended sleeping pattern.
He is not a fat cat but this photo does nothing to flatter his figure.

A laugh from Molly

Note: very angry voice was used in this exchange:

Molly: " don't Sam, do you want to be a nice adult?"

So you think you are having a bad day??

24 hours in the Wilson house.
Sabastian comes home from school with a cough and a headache.
Molly has a sore stomach.
Jack has his headache and sore stomach.
Sabastian does not get to sleep until 2am.
Molly wakes up with croup and sore stomach.
Jack sleepwalks out the back door.
I am working night shift.
I send Sabastian up to the bus stop to escort the little ones home, he comes off his bike and brings home half of the road in his elbow with a gash that is too mutilated to stitch (I resisted photos as I know one person who will faint at the sight of it, even though her daughter will probably be fascinated)
Rock on 2010 I say. I have had enough of this year!!!
Send me some good energy and I will send some good photos :)

Our vege garden

Brussel sprouts, corn, lettuce, cauliflower and broccoli (oh and a few herbs). Look out the Wilson's are in the garden!!

Growing Up!!

Jack the fool

At the moment Jack seems to try to do anything to make us laugh. In these hard times anything is appreciated. Thanks Jack for keeping a smile on our faces.

Jack and Sully

Jack has still been unwell. Just as well he has his friend Sully!

Shark bait hoo aah aah

Work continues on Shark Bait. Some photos of the fine wood work going on. We spent about 7 hours on her today. A lesson in fibre glassing for me, amongst other things. The capping is teak, and the seats are rimu. Can't wait to see them sanded and stained!!

Sully Sam and MR DOG

I went to check on the kids tonight, and this is what I found. Mr Dog in charge.

Shark Bait Ooh Aah Aah

Snapshots by SAM of Shark Bait.
Marc and Grandad John have been working hard putting the teak capping on "Shark Bait".
Those who don't get the title need to go and watch Finding Nemo!
