Oma and Opa Arrive

 

Clancy’s Oma and Opa arrived today, to a very excited little boy. They are staying 2 weeks after initially being delayed by the South American Volcanic ash cloud and Virgin’ s aircraft scheduling. They were supposed to be here for Opa’s birthday on the 7^th of June, so we had a cake and celebration waiting for the night they arrived.

Mum and Dad’s 50th Anniversary

It was Mum and Dad’s 50^th Wedding Anniversary. We celebrated with the entire family at a restaurant on South bank in Melbourne, the first time we have all been together for a special event in quite some time.

Christmas Morning in Australia

Clancy still doesn’t quite get what most kids do at Christmas. He was super excited about presents but still came a cuddled with us in bed and asked if Santa had been, rather than just charging to the tree, not that we’re complaining about that. I am sure next year will be a straight run for the tree and mum and dad will be second.

Last Days of Australia Trip

We spent the last weekend of Australia trip poolside overlooking Adelaide with Family and celebrating Milan's birthday, then and a quick stopover at Oma and Opa's before flying back to Cambodia. Here are some of the photos.

Clancy got a chance to show Opa some of the new skills he was learning at his after school soccer sessions.
