Birthday Girls

Layne turned 7 last year and Ava turned 2.

Layne wanted to go Rock Climbing for her birthday...she has always loved a good challenge and she loves rock climbing.

Dad and Uncle Juzz watching the little monkey. The only thing missing was Uncle Glen teasing his Laynie Poo. We miss you Uncle Glen...we'll come to Queensland soon just so you can tease her:)

And she hits the roof!

And since the girls are inseparable....Ava tries her hand at rock climbing too. I know it doesn't look like it but she is definitely going to be an adrenilin junky like her Daddy...

And...then it was Ava's birthday....:)

Have I told you how much she loves her food?....Don't try and pinch any of her food...or she'll let you know exactly what how she feels...

Her birthday cake...

It's been a long time...

Jacob was baptised into The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in September 2010.

A very long time! It's only been the last week or two that I have started to think that maybe I should try blogging again!

Many things have happened over the last 2 years. I feel like I haven't done the best job of recording the little moments in our lives, both the painful and the joyful, and as we all know we learn from both. Thankfully photos are constant in our lives and help us capture the more joyous moments again.

Here are some photos for the kids from the more 'joyous' occasions:)
