The finished Xmas tree.
The tree was finished this morning as I walked past, waiting for the
lighting ceremony tomorrow night. I note the conspicuous lack of a
certain jolly man and his 8 hooved friends at this point in time.
Usually around the base of the Christmas tree is a model of Santa and
the reindeer. Hmmm, I wonder where they have gone.
Angels in the City.

Morning Crush Hour
Just wanted to share a picture of the normal conditions on my morning commute to work on the rolling sardine can.

And the flood waters recede.
I have taken a few snaps of the Riverheart Parklands after the floodwaters receded. I will, for those readers interested, be visiting the other sites I had posted photos of in Flickr and posting some "After" photos.
More photos will be posted tonight, so stay tuned.
CB goes to another party.
Little Miss Socialite has been invited to one of her friend's birthday parties. It was held at the Queens Park Nature Centre.
Brisbane's Christmas Tree
The council started putting the Chrismas tree up on Sunday. I thought that they were very game doing this in the gale blowing down George Street. Stay tuned for updates as the tree goes up in stages.
Sunbaking in the Nude
We went to Queens Park on Saturday last for a birthday party.
When we walked through the nature centre we found this beastie lying on his
back having the sleep of his life.
Even kids banging on the window couldn't wake this worn out Wombat. And no it wasn't dead.
I could hear you thinking that.
Psychotic, aren't I.
CB gets a haircut !!
Well, we had been threatening her for a while now. "If you don't let's
us brush your hair we'll get it cut off", was our catchcry.
I got off the train yesterday, and lo and behold, NP had done it. And
it looks great.

A Very Fairy Birthday Party
CB was invited to a Fairy and Pirates themed Birthday Party by one of her friends at school.
It was held at Hungry Jacks. There were a heap of fairies and 1 pirate.
She wasn't very with it at the party as she had been running very high temps all night.
She looked beautiful in her Fairy costume.

Courier Collection Area,
I thought this was interesting. At my work they have a dedicated area where you can come and collect any couriers that have been sent to you. Mwahahahahahaha

Mum & Bub
It was great to catch up with my little sister yesterday.
As you can see from the pic she is looking great and is in excellent health.
RDJ was very active, although not when my hand was on her belly.
The girls had a great visit with AB.
JP came to the door very excitedly saying "I felt the baby move".

Belly Flops at Nanna's
We called in to see Big Nanna on the way home from the airport and beach.
JP decided to show her prowess at the lost art of Belly Flopping..
Click Here to Head over to flickr to see the sequence.
At the beach
We went to the beach for about an hour after dropping NP off at the Gold Coast Airport.
Bye Mum, Love you, have a nice trip.
A quick snap of all the girls, before NP had to go on to the passengers only departure lounge. (READ: back part of a big tin shed.)
Air Asia - Funny advertising
This advert for Air Asia made me laugh. So I thought I would share it with you all.
It reads "Cheap enough to say, Phuket I'll go."
Hahahahaha, clunk.

Pickin' Up the Chicks from OSHC
When I picked the girls up from OSHC the other day we went to get a slushie.
Their Tongues turned black with the colour combination.

The Faeries Tea Party by Chris Boston
After seeing a segment on "Extra" we decided to go and visit "The Faeries Tea Party" being displayed at Dinmore Cottage in Dinmore.
The exhibition ran from Sat Sep 20 2008 – Sun Oct 5 2008
The Girls loved the exhibition, which just happened to be displayed right next door to the Xmas Loft and Dinmore Cottage's Nick Nak store.
My reccomendation is that the girls in the Family could spend an hour or two browsing the various stores, but for the guys bring your PSP or Iphone if you are gonna be there a while. LOL
For more Images go and see the collection on our flickr page here.
Smythville go to the Movies
We went to see Journey to the Centre of the Earth in 3D at the Indooro cinemas.
It was funny to watch CB trying to catch all the things flying out from the screen.
Meanwhile there were parts throughout the movie that my arm lost circulation because JP was hugging it so hard.
Like the cool glasses ?
