Yesterday we went to my friend's 'kind of' wedding. She was actually married over a onth a go in a civil ceremony in Melbourne but no one except his parents, went to that. THen her and her fiance flew to England where they had a marriage ceremony which was really just a blessing (because English laws about being in the country for the reading of the Banns stopped her from having a real wedding) and then they went on honeymoon and now they are back in Oz and had a big party for all their friends and family here!! Maddness!! But the party was cool! See the photos on flicker!
Friday was our nephew Ronnie's 2nd birthday. We cannot believe that he is 2 already. Even though we were sad to not be with him it was cool because we saw him open his cards and presents on the webcam and he even blew out his candles infornt of us. If we had been in the UK a phone call would probably have sufficed! We bought him a tshirt and some cool Wiggles underpants and we could hear him on the webcam saying 'wiggles, wiggles'- very cute.
Chris is still doing his biggest loser thing and he is doing really well with out crash dieting! (which I suspect some of his mates are doing!) You can see a picture on flicker of one of his healthy meals- steamed fish, rice and vegetables!! Impressive!!
Final bit of news- I interviewed for, and got, my job this week. I really wasn't too worried because I was pretty sure that the school wanted to keep me, but it is still always a bit nerve racking to wait to be told you have a job. My contract now goes through to December 2008- how exciting!
Love Helen***
