A really big catch up post!

So it seems I have let the blog slip by another 2 months... and don't seem to be getting anywhere with catching up... So what follows is a really big batch of photos from the last couple of months... We've all been so busy, between birthday parties, christmas parties, school shows and events, a camping trip and more...  Alas we don't have photos from every event, but here are some highlights from the last couple of months....

First up are the 2nd batch of photos taken by Seb when he was in town... Here are the girls with Cindy... With a nice moody cloudy background...

 Daddy and the girls...

And a very cute little foot....

And a cute little swimmer...

Some Halloween horrors....

Here's Keira and her beau, Matthew...

Claire and her friends from school have been in the pool a lot of late...

 A little model in waiting....

 Come mid-November dad and the girls took mum out for a birthday dinner...

Happy Birthday Mum!

Complete with cupcakes...

The girls have been enjoying walks in the neighborhood and local parks...

About a fortnight ago we went out camping with Chloe and Amy and their family...

As usual  the girls thought it was great!

Our very cheeky little Keira...

 What would camping be without a blazing fire.

So the girls can sit around gossiping...

And generally having fun!

And all of a sudden its time for Christmas parties!  First up was the KF party arranged by the parents...

Then Claire and her class put on a performance during assembly, the Reindeer Pokey....

Next up was Keira's preschool show... Keira was a beautiful angel for the first half...

And then played and sung along with her good friends...

On the same day, Claire was scheduled to receive an award at school... so the girls got ready for the day by posing for the day...

We are obviously super proud of Claire for receiving an award in front of the entire school...

Claire's very proud to celebrate with her teacher...

And finally, this past weekend we had a Christmas party for our old group of friends...

Here's Claire and Chloe attempting a selfie!

Claire and Keira before the party started...setting up the reading corner!

And here's the group...17.5 of us....

And some 7 or 8 years ago (with no kids!)
