Happy New Year to all our friends and family. May this year bring you love and laughter, smiles and cheers and follow your dreams!
We had a great first day of the year surrounded by little people in Dan and Chaunnie's backyard. With the help from the Eaddie boys we made Pizzas and had a few cold ones while the kids played in the blow up pool.
On the 2nd Jan we packed everything into the camper and X trail and headed to the Gold Coast where Janelle had 4 days of locum pharmacy work at Southport. After dropping Janelle off, Zane and Stella needed to find a park and hang out until they could check into the apartment in Burleigh Heads where we were meeting Papa Doc and Nanny who would share our apartment for 5 nights - woohoo baby sitters!
Beautiful Burleigh Heads, we couldn't have asked for a better location. The weather was great, the people were beautiful, the surf was pumping and the whole atmosphere of the Gold Coast is just cool. The mouth of the Tallebudgera river was located behind us, we walked over the hill and down for a refreshing swim in the river. Great spot. We meet up with Haydos, Amie and baby Evie for a swim and a catch up before hitting the Mowbray surf club for dinner.
Zane and Janelle celebrated their 4 year anniversary with a Japanese dinner at JFX and big screen movie night The Hobbit while the grandparents had Stella for the night. Kanpai!

Janelle had some great experiences during her locum work. You can read about it at
After all the glitz and glamour of the Gold Coast we have decided to head up into the hinterlands. The caravan parks are too busy and expensive on the coast and we are looking forward to some cooler weather and adventures in the Lamington National Parks.
Farewell Nanny and Papa Doc, thanks so much for sharing the apartment and hanging out with Stella - we couldn't have done it without you.
Hooray!
