5 Weeks in Brisbane

Our 5 weeks in Brisbane began with a visit to the Mater Mothers unit to see Lisa and Emily. Lisa looked well and Emily is just beautiful. We are so happy that both are well after the drama of arrival.
We are very comfortable in our van at Hayley and Stu's and made most welcome by our family's. Craig invited Stu and me to a Sportsmans Dinner, the guest speakers were Brendon Fevola and Alister Lynch. It was a good night with Fev and Alister being really interesting speakers. Stu bought a Lions Grand Final photo with a photo of Fev with him, will look great on the games room wall.
Tackled a few jobs at Craig's, general fix its and some painting and cutting down palm trees. The palm trees turned into a major effort with the torn muscle in my shoulder, thank god Craig did all the heavy lifting. We will remember the dramas Craig had getting the junk to the tip, I think he was happy to see the last of Stu's trailer.
We helped Stu look after the two little kid's while Hayley was away and really enjoyed the experience. We now have a greater appreciation of what modern day parenting is all about, and were very relieved when Hayley returned. Our time coming to an end we prepared to move on.
