More from Down Under

This picture was taken inside the Queen Victoria Building. It's a shopping mall that's a city block long.
My encounter with the koalas was very exciting.
Sarah and me at my birthday dinner. We went to the Hurricane. Reservations were at 8p. It was a good thing we had them, there was an hour and a half wait. Thanks Sarah and Phil. You're amazing!!

Oz


Rob said I needed to post something since it's been two weeks. Here it is!!

Sydney Harbor Bridge (which I climbed)

I spent 10 days in Australia with my great friend/pen pal Sarah. She and I have written letters back and forth for about 15 years. She's visited me twice, it was my turn to return the favor. We had a GREAT time!

Don't you just love unpredictable events? I mean who would have thought that May 6, 2010 would bring us INCHES of snow?

Welcome to our home...

Emma's been wanting a red front door for a while...
This was our Family Home Evening activity this week.
Only Emma realized how stressed out she becomes when paint is dripped and wiped in places it doesn't belong.
The door does seem to be a bit pink...what do you think?
Rob even painted the columns and garage doors...anything that could be touched up white, was. The awning in the backyard also got a new coat of white paint.
