Tash reading a new book with Will...


While Tash went to her physio appointment, Pete and I minded Will. We remembered that there was some work being done up the road...such excitement for an 18 month old!


Will and Pete watching the digger at work... Will is performing his digger action whilst he watches...soooo cute.


Playing with his little cars and cat on the limestone wall..

Margaret and Cindy from Royal Fremantle and Rockingham Golf Clubs on the Kwinana Golf course where I played in a Silver /Bronze event today. Deb Callcott from Gosnells was the fourth lady in our group. It was a perfect day for golf and the course looked magnificent.


This is the original green keeper's house, in the middle of the course.


And I won Best Nett overall (88/73)..here I am receiving my prize with the Captain, Vice Captain and Sponsor of the day.
