So it seems that we are staying put for now... probably for the best whilst trying to plan a wedding and admittedly event the thought of packing and moving again is enough to make me sick.
We've been doing alot of pottering in our homeschooling. I think it has alot to do with that end of year feeling.
We've been doing alot of gardening/planting and have started on our sustainability unit study which the kids have enjoyed so far...even though this week has been most full of spewy, dying boys :O
Lots of weekend trips to Sydney to look at wedding reception venues has been a little hectic, which the older boys assure me would be much easier if they had an ipad!! Unfortunately our dvd player is not 100% at the moment and I'm not sure I could stand hours of top gear dvds anyway.
Scott (Akira) and Linkin both started blogs this week. Scott's is going to be more general goings on and Linkin's is all things car related. You can access them from my profile if you are interested.
Scott had a birthday and now he is 8 :) with a gap of three teeth missing up top!! He loved the books he got for his birthday and the RC helicopter has been a big hit.
Today they decided to put up the christmas tree and decorations. So with minimal help they beautified the lounge room and I dug out the christmas train set and everyone (Elijah especially) was delighted.
Scott has a Violin concert coming up so he is madly practicing. Linkin has totally thrived on his own at karate since Scott moved up a class. Elijah is snail obsessed, really any creature fascinates him and rather than being freaked out by the huge huntsman spider in Linkin's room he was in awe and wanted to watch it for ages outside when we rehomed it.
This post is really rambley and unstructured but its the best I could manage amidst the spew and the potty training babe!
When I remember to put some batteries in my camera I will finally post some pics!!

I've been wondering if you'd made a decision whether to stay or go.
Sound like things are busy but fun at your house!
When is the big day?
I'm kinda glad you don't have a camera to illustrate the potty training and sick kids ;p
Love the sound of your sustainability study and all the gardening. Elijah and Pete were kind of discussing that during dinner tonight (Jasi and I couldn't get a word in much!)
We are thinking July, but still to be confirmed.
Oh yeah-you definitely don't want a photo montage of those parenting moments!!
