Tomorrow we head to Denham for the month of June. We'll stop in Dongara tomorrow night and try to catch up with Gary Shanahan in Geraldton for a couple of nights after that. I went to primary school with Gary and we met him in Bitter Springs NT last year.
We had dinner and spent the night with my Recipezaar friend Pat Friday night which was great-lots of yummy seafood, good wine and much talking. Saturday we had a quiet day at home, then Sunday Dan, Verity and Kobie came over and I cooked us all Indian (coconut curried veg, quail in Indian spices, butter chicken and rice) AND I made dessert-a raspberry trifle cake (which was yummy).
On Monday (yesterday), Dan and Verity brought lunch over here then we went to their place for dinner last night. Dan cooked us Guiness stew and garlic mash, then we had apple crumble. I got to bath baby Kobie which was very grandmotherly for us both!
Blair flew to Melbourne last Monday for work and Leah joined him on Friday. They found themselves a three bedroom townhouse in South Yarra to rent so are very pleased with themselves. It has a couple of courtyards and they are able to take the dog and cat which has thrilled Leah. It's a gorgeous house and we can't wait to sit the pets for them. Blair starts work next week, Leah will join him two weeks later.
Todd is most likely moving into an apartment here in Perth and this house (with its perfect van park) will be rented out-he's been offered the next job like his that comes up in Melbourne. Mick is moving back to Warrnambool at the end of August (and then flying to South Africa and the US) and Dan and Verity will move to Melbourne when his restaurant is sold they think. So most of our family are on the move again. I'm so glad we got to spend all this time in WA and all this time with the boys, partners, babies dogs and cats! I'll miss them all so much and I'll miss the pool, high speed wireless internet, foxtel and the food channel!
I'm busy washing bed linen and matress and pillow protectors while Russ shops, then tonight we are off out to The Tamarind with Blair, Leah, Todd and Chris and Carly.
