August was our month to get back into the swing of normal routine since being back in Australia. We had a lot of school activities on as well as general family fun together and with friends.
Here are the girls being goofy at meal time.
What a fun night this was! My friend, Jenny invited me to her 40th birthday party high tea and out for drinks and dancing in the city. We enjoyed some great finger food and champagne before hitting the clubs in Sydney!

Meanwhile Daddy was enjoying a game with the girls back home.
Mommy/Kyla date day-bike ride to the park and out for hot chocolate and donuts!
Daddy/Alaina date day-Alaina first time riding all the way to the local park on her own 2 wheels and then out for hot drinks and treats.
Our friends, the Youngs came over for dinner and I gave my first sushi making lesson to Tracey. After dinner, we celebrated their eldest’s 8th birthday.
Our first fire! Now to find free firewood so it doesn’t cost us $17 each time!
The lorikeets up at the school are unbelievable-SO many of them looking for the kids’ leftovers and they swarm the playground area. They will also fly in pairs and flocks right at your head! They’re quite tame though and you can touch them while they’re eating. Beautiful birds!
Our friend, Harrison petting one of them
Hallie is always finding new friends to be silly with…lets hit this tree with sticks!
Swim lesson fun!
Hallie is such a character! Loving the water and being the naked drummer girl.
Hallie is so cute at naptime…especially when she sleep with her “helmet” on!
Family bike ride!
Having the Cramlett family over for dinner and fun playing outside.
A couple months earlier, the girls got to go to their first friend sleepover at their friends, Sofia and Gemma’s house and this month they got to have them over for a sleepover. They had a ton of fun making their own pizzas for dinner and sundaes for dessert and dancing the night away to Just Dance on the Wii!
Fun at Kyla’s friend, Bella’s birthday party
Pretty proud of my new braiding skills!
The birthday girl!
More fun with the lorikeets!
