We’re off to Disney this fine afternoon – and will have a safe and happy journey, all 7 hours to the paradise that is Orlando and surrounding areas. Can’t wait!

New Record

without comments

Yesterday marked the breaking of the previous ‘no of posts in a month’ record – plus of course this one. I am most proud. It helps that Jenny blogs also of course, and it was a very busy December. Hopefully things will calm down now, except WE HAVE A TRIP TO DISNEY WORLD COMING UP WEDNESDAY EVENING !

Riverbanks Zoo Trip Again!

We went again to Riverbanks Zoo with Grammy, Ryan and Nathan (+ our crew of course). To watch the video embedded below in HD, you have to click on it and launch from vimeo direct. Some lovely footage, including the kidz riding the Nay Nays.

Gmail Chat

without comments

Ryan and I were trying out Gmail WebCam chat, and it works great. What is particularly nice about this, is that I was using my MacBook, and he was using his Vista Laptop – previously I haven’t had much success connecting to foreign computers before from my MacBook. This will server as a launching pad to webcam chat with Mum in England via Gmail and her WebCam,

Ah.. Xmas is over.. Sadness

without comments

The kids had a great time, and are STILL playing with all their new toys. Lauren seems quite taken with her House, and likes to bake CooCakes for the family. Emily is fond of everything, likes her bike and spends some time catching fish. Nicholas likes everything too, including the kids toys! Ive seen him play with his miniskateboard quite a bit.

Some cool sites I found today
