Pool party

Here are some photos of Mathew and Brendon at a pool party. It's funny, within a short time of being in the pool, we both noticed Brendon's confidence improved to the point where he was happy to swim by himself with the support of a pool noodle only. He does swimming lessons each week, but this made us realise that just playing in a pool like this would also be good for his confidence and swimming ability. So I think over the summer I will also take him for a swim in a pool other than just going to swimming lessons.

Our 7th wedding anniversary

It was our wedding anniversary on Sunday, so on Saturday night we caught the bus to Norwood and had gourmet pizza at Cafe Palazzo. It was really yummy and a nice night out, and I got to wear my green dress that I wore to Neil and Char's wedding again. Here is a photo of Mathew and Brendon in the bus on the way out to dinner.
On Sunday morning we went for a lovely bike ride along linear park into Adelaide, then up to North Adelaide. We stopped at the park just opposite the Women's and Children's hospital for morning tea, before heading back home again. I took some photos of Mathew and Brendon there, but didn't manage to get a photo of the three of us. On the way home, we were still a few kilometres away from home when the heavens opened and it bucketed down. Usually I don't enjoy being rained on while riding, but thoroughly enjoyed getting saturated this time. The fact that it wasn't cold may have had something to do with it. Even Brendon liked getting wet!
Brendon has been doing a lot of painting lately. We are getting quite a collection of his artwork!
