Supporting Darryl Braithwaite

Scott's band, Waking Eden won a Battle of the bands contest earlier in the year, and their prize was  to open for Darryl Braithwaite, a classic Aussie rocker. 

Here are the boys in action in front of the largest crowd they've ever played to. It was glorious!!

Here's Darryl singing his classic song,  Horses, now enjoying a revival. 

Halloween 2016

We hosted a Halloween party for Ella, and decided to dress up. This is our rendition of Breaking Bad's Walter and Jesse/Outbreak-ish disease control.

Ziplining, SnapChat and Family

We all had a fantastic time ziplining! Brad, Sam and Max joined us and it was pretty great fun. 

Snap chat kept everyone entertained. 

My gorgeous cousin Starr and her partner John drove over to see us too, and we had a lovely catchup and visit with them one evening.
