From the Ross family welcome to the new year. We are looking forward too a great new year full of good times and great adventures. After this week we are glad that the house we live in is super solid house. The winds were the strongest that we have experienced since we have lived on the peninsular. It has been a long time since I have updated and I will put a lot more up here in the following weeks and months starting with this video of the storm that just came through. We had a power cut that lasted from 7:00pm till 9:00am the next day. This is just unheard of to lose power for such a long period.

Skylar's cool speech to Broad Bay students using a PowerPoint .

I am very proud of her as she made the power point and wrote the speech with a very small amount of help from either Mommy or myself. Kids really do pick up computing quite fast. She really put in a great effort with lots of practice leading up to the event and plenty of encouragement from all of us
I see thqt the school she goes to is running a u-tube channel with a lot of the kids being put on it giving speeches and such like. I am all in favour of this as long as the kids are kept informed and they have the ability to say that no I don't want it up.

This is Skylar getting an award for the most relaxed actor on stage in the school play. She was Friar Tuck and really pulled it off with pretending to drink out of a great big tankard. I am sure that there are many great little schools in our country and this is certainly one of the best. This may seem like the regular stuff but along with  great  pupil and teacher interaction and parents as well, they have some really inovative programs that teach real values to our kids.

The end of season play at the school was Robin Hood with our very own Skylar getting to play Friar Tuck. She recieved an award for the acting that she did in this production as the most relaxed and casual actor on the stage

This is our tree a couple of days before Christmas. The kids really got a kick out of trying to guess their presents via shaking and every other means possible.They were very surprised when on Christmas day they awoke to find the present count had gone up a lot from when this photo was taken. The photo on the right is the early evening of Christmas day and the destruction  has been done and the kids are now just fighting over which toy to play with next. Its been a long and happy day, both Machen and I have made it through another one woowoo!! It was really nice to have Machens Mom,Terri join us via messenger. While the stream flowed in and out but was generally ok. It was a special occasion and Terri Really got to partake in it like she was really there. The kids got a kick out of it as well.
The cat sums us all up, pretty worn out and about ready to put our paws up and our pj's on. Merry Christmas everyone and for the good wishes and will that we have been lucky enough to have this year I hope that the next year is as fun and eventful as the last , thanks  everyone.
