This morning Pete and I made our way to Chris and Michelle's. While they went back to the Crown Towers to collect presents, we went for a walk to the beach...Altona beach.

Fun times....opening the presents.....

.......and freezing cake.

Michelle and Chris' Wedding Celebration 

Kimmie (Chris' groom's person) ....I watched closely hoping to learn something. Pete and I were so pleased that we were included in the run sheet. Whilst Chris and his party prepared for the wedding at his house, Michelle and her bridesmaids and mum dressed at the Crown Towers.

The photographer (Eric) and the videographer catching Chris cooking us bacon and egg burgers.

Doesn't he look so handsome?

And don't they look gorgeous....Kimmie in her beautiful navy dress and his good friend Ben.

Watching Michelle and Brad walk down the aisle.

I was so pleased that I knew nothing about what was going to happen today....everything was a lovely surprise....Michelle in her dress was a wonderful stunning surprise.

Dominika (Dom) and Ella...the beautiful bridesmaids...both of whom came over and had a lovely chat with me during the evening...really delightful young ladies.

Chris reading his vows, beautifully...

Michelle and her family...brother Daniel, mother Halina and dad Brad.

I asked Brad to take this photo whilst Eric was photographing us.

After fearing for months that we wouldn't be able to celebrate with Chris and Michelle, we were so pleased that it was a thoroughly enjoyable day and magical evening.

 

Good morning Melbourne! Waiting outside our apartment for Chris and Michelle to pick us up.

In Chris and Michelle's new car

A new building since our last visit...

Having a quiet drink at Perth airport before catching our plane to Melbourne when Jeremy rang to tell us that we will not have to quarantine when we arrive home in Perth after March 3rd. 

So nice to be on an aeroplane....so excited to be on our way to Melbourne and to see Chris and Michelle.

 

 

I took this a while ago....just wanted to make sure that I could use Pete's laptop for my blog while we are away.

 

Will explaining to Grandad how to play the game...

Ethan is a baby cheetah...

Even in the pool Will likes to play games using his imagination.

They loved playing with the balloons on the trampoline.

 

Having a Teams meeting bookclub tonight...discussed The Sentence by Louise Erdrich which I really enjoyed reading.
