My parents got back from Australia this week, and Mom's camera was filled with pictures of Amy's three kids. I think that is mostly what they have down there in Australia: Ava, Nate, and Grace. There was a blurry kangaroo in the back of one shot, and a tiny piece of the Sydney Opera House, Russell Crowe's shoulder, and a sliver of the National Health Service. But mostly it was these three. They are the main attraction.
Mom got such pretty pictures that I thought I would share. Here's Ava, now an unbelievable 7 years old.
And Nate, the Dude. A deep thinker. He has mused on more than one occasion that "Jesus has lemon powers."
And Grace again. The Boss of the World. Our cousins.
That's all I got for a quiet Sunday. I have to go to the store and buy more white lights for the tree and try to avoid buying the ones that don't have end-to-end plugs, like who would ever conceive of such a stupid product? Are they for people who only want a tiny amount of Christmas joy?

You picked some good ones! Yep, that's the main things Australia's got. They are some precious kids.
Thank goodness for skype, right? My chosen sister has migrated to New Zealand and some days it feels impossibly far away.
Am I allowed to miss them? They appear adorable.
Very cute kids. The half grown-in front tooth? It's killing me!
Oh dear! Now I'm all verklempt! We miss y'all too. And yes...clearly my children are the main tourist attraction here. The busloads of tourists get a little hard to manage, though.
Amy- you've been away too long! You accidentally used the Australian spelling of "buttloads."
What beautiful children. And certainly they're all I now know of down under --
Happy Birthday today! A little bird down under mentioned it. Stay warm and have a wonderful day!
Just read your sister's blog where she divulged that today's your b-day. Hope that hasn't had an impact on your Christmas bounty all these years. ;) Have a great one!
Totally off-topic, but Happy Birthday!!!!
