Move over, Jamie Durie, the Kendall Kids are here!

Ho hum... Not much happening around here lately and we were all showing the signs of boredom...


Yeah, I know, great duplo tower...




... and the Woolies Homeshop Express train is fun too I guess, but I'm feeling kind of bored. How about you, Fletch?


Me too, Ali, but I have an idea! Let me just munch on some of this DELICIOUS brocolli (no, really, it is good) and tell you about this guy I saw on tv the other day. His name is Jamie Durie and he does these cool things called 'water features'! I think our backyard could really use one. Let's get to work on it tomorrow!


So the next day the Kendall Kids set out to build their very own Jamie Durie inspired water feature...


This tub is PERFECT! All we need to do is a little excavation work...


Hey Fletch! If that means getting dirty, count me in!


Sorry, Tom, this kind of serious dirtiness is reserved for the big boys like me.


It's lots of fun, though! Can't wait 'till you're big enough to join in!


Yes, that's it Ali, keep digging there but just be careful of the frogs...


... (who didn't seem to mind too much) ...


FINISHED! What do you think?


Looks good! Now for a relaxing break under the fern with my boot off... ahh!!!

Ice cream!

Hi there! Mum is always telling me it's good to try some new foods which usually involves some sort of vegetable (bleah!). But tonight I got to try something REALLY yummy...


Ice cream! In a cone!! AND it had SPRINKLES!!! but as you can see they didn't last long...


Getting my little mouth around the top proved to be a bit of a challenge however...


... I managed to get a few good bites in!


Mmm... yummy... It's good to take your time and enjoy it slowly isn't it Ali?

Um... yeah... I guess... but I've finished mine already :-)

Girls, girls, girls...

I got to meet some more of my cousins this weekend... the girls from Dubbo!


Hi Kate! How's things??


Ali had fun too, playing 'shops' with Lorna and Veronica. Lorna just checking which credit card she's going to use...


... while Veronica calls for a 'PRICE CHECK!'


Hey let's go for a ride!


Maybe we should see if we can find Fletch... he seems to have disappeared!

To infinity and beyond!

It's been raining lots lately so Mum decided that if you can't beat it, join it! We donned our raincoats and boots and headed outdoors...


I'd like to add to Tom's comments in the last post about 'hand-me-downs'... pink pooh bear boots??? What sort of look is this to go with my extra special ...


... buzz lightyear raincoat??


Looking longingly at the backyard and wondering if Mum will open the back gate so we can frolic on the wet grass ... sadly, it was not to be. Maybe next time?


Meanwhile, Tom sat back and surveyed the antics of his two older siblings practising one of his newly acquired skills - grinning!


... and subtly telling Mum to put the camera away while he's busy playing (note the right hand gesture)

Time for some morning tea! And while Fletch isn't watching...

... I might just help myself to some more raisin toast! You didn't want this piece, did you Fletch?

Back off, Ali. It's mine...

All mine!! He he he.... yum!
