As always, plans are made to be changed......we ended up only staying at Lock for just over 3 weeks.  Given the choice between a job and family that were needing a helping hand, of course family wins every time!
We have been home in Winkie for the last 5 weeks now so not a lot earlier than first planned.  We also have housemates for now,  Josh, Kara and Kasiah are living with us for a while.  Josh has had trouble with his back and was off work for a number of weeks. It's working out well and we are loving the extra time with Kasiah after spending most of the year away.
We've also had a few weekends in Adelaide with Callie and Steven, visiting the beach with the dogs and just spending time with the kids.
Ben has also moved from Canberra now and is living with Callie and Steven.

So the last few weeks have seen us spending most of our times with the kids, to make up for deserting them this year haha
Bun and I enjoyed the pageant and fireworks in Barmera last Friday night, we missed watching them the last two years!  I think I need to see more fireworks haha so that I can practice photographing them!






Always a pleasure to walk the dogs :)



We did have one intense shower of rain and hail, we said that was our white Christmas.


On one of our weekends in Adelaide, I helped Callie, Ashlee and Renae with 'crafty stuff' for the wedding...Bun got the job of washing Callie's car haha




We visited Bunnings as well and Bun got busy decorating.  We actually bought coloured lights as well for the top of the windmill but that is yet to happen.  It will only happen if the weather calms down a bit.

I'm trying to get my sewing mojo back now that I can use a sewing machine again but it seems to be eluding me....maybe I just need to forget about cleaning up the sewing room and just do it!  I seem to get distracted by other things at the moment. 

Anyway that's it for now, just wanted to catch up on the fact that we are home now.  We hope that everyone has a lovely Christmas and that the New Year is full of great things!
Cheers
Anne and Bun
