Went to Yeppoon for funeral of Liz Huff (Previous neighbours). I went to see Christine with boys.  Was great to see them.
Boys got hair cuts & we picked up their little BMX bikes for xmas.

Neighbours cow got stuck in grid & the rude bugger wasn't even going to thank us but another neighbour had a dig at him...

Happy Birthday to my beautiful niece Harper... who turns Big 1
Had a partee & had so much fun!  Boys loved playing in the pool.
Shopping for pressie for Harper was so much fun...loved shopping for girls for a change!

Must be feeling rich this week as bought new generator - hopefully to save some money!!  Much little than other one which is 30kva of which this one is 7kva.  So hopefully wont be a petrol guzzler!!
Mike & Tegs came up for visit &  looked at our roof (leaks when rains - iron too flat)!
Our grader contractor has finished & so we organised for a valuer to come back out & value it!

12th to 18th December

Jami arrived Tuesday - she looks so grown up and beautiful!  Wearing fishnet stockings of which i wasn't very impressed & she politely said its the trend mum!!  Took her awhile to adjust to the heat!  Out of 6 nights she spent 2 with me.
Feeling very prego now.... went over the neighbours at our back block to look at some weaners.  I hyperventilated / fainted. Peter took me to hospital about 4pm.  Didn't get any clothes until 9pm.  Just stayed in overnight & everything fine.  Just a big day & the heat got to me I think.  Fault leaving without a baby but!!!
Margaret & Graham over this week looking for dingoes.  Peter saw 13 in one day!!!  Didn't shoot one!!! hehe

19th to 25th December

Dave & Erin & Emma in town.  Was going to stay over my place but because being buggered they ended up staying with Steven.  Caught up with them at Mike's for BBQ.
Found out Valuation of back block is SAME!!!  another kick in the guts!
More Xmas shopping. Adds up hey!  Bought boys a train set table set...loved it.  Went to Gracemere S/Ctr with Jami & Riley on Christmas Eve.
Christmas Day - Home for breaky etc until about 11.at home...was nice not to rush... then went to Aunty Di's for lunch that was lovely too.  We left & went over Pete parents just before everyone hoped in pool.  Saw everyone & wished them happy xmas was really nice!  Received Table & Chairs from Ma & Pa - really nice!  Big day for the boys & especially me, just exhausted!!!  Also received from Margaret & Graham a BBQ.
