Stawell with the B's!

Dear Rebecca, Tony, Theabella and Christopher,

Thank you so much for allowing us to camp our caravan in your backyard last week - we had so much fun!

Every morning we were greeted by Woody, your adorable little dog who seems to have a 'spaz-attack' whenever we rub his head - gee, we laughed when he ran  from one end of the yard to another over and over, tongue lolling out and ears flapping everywhere!

Morning coffee and "Good morning Evie!" from Theabella and Christopher was so nice each day; especially the daily hug from both kids (did I say 'hug'?  Maybe "squeeeeze" is a better word!).

And let's not forget the obligatory beer/scotch/whatever when Tony comes home from work - we really enjoyed helping Tony wind down after a hectic day at 'the office'.  And oh my goodness... the food!  Between bbqs and roasts and all the trimmings; we feel so spoilt, and can't wait to do the same for you one day at Nearly Creek.  And may I please request, in advance, a repeat of Rebecca's special ice-cream malty-Maxi-Bon desert for our next visit?

We enjoyed looking after the kids when you were both at work - I never knew Wii MarioKart would be so much fun!!!!  Theabella and I made some lovely chocolate cake too; it was delicious.  Just kidding!  We made the cake out of mud - make sure you don't really eat it; just pretend!!!  Later, Theabella showed us some of her tricks on the trampoline - and Woody even jumped up when he figured he could use the little pink chair as a stepping stone - silly Woody!  Theabella, you should show Jase how to to use the trampoline properly next time we visit - he really hurt the skin on his toes when he was throwing you and Christopher around!

And Christopher, I hope you make lots of paper aeroplanes, and Theabella, maybe you could colour them in and draw more suns and things on them?  I think Jase will miss making these for you....

I hope Tony enjoyed his 40-somethingth birthday, we were really pleased to be there and thoroughly enjoyed the barbecue.  Here's hoping that bottle of Bundy helps him enjoy many quiet (or noisy) evenings over the coming year. It was great also to have a good pub meal with Terri and Charlie to celebrate Charlie's birthday - and Theabella's calamari rings looked delicious!

Of course, we loved being a part of Christopher's first ever day of school and feel very special to have been included in this special day.  We hope Theabella and Christopher enjoy their year of learning and making new friends.

See you soon, and miss you all like crazy,

Love
Evie xxxx
PS Jase sends his love and hugs too xxxx
