Family Visits!

Well Yvette and Adam had planned a little holiday to come over and visit from Melbourne as it has been a while since they caught up with everyone down here in Tassie. They flew into Launceston and went to Stay with the Crossin family in Port Sorell for a few days and then they came to stay with us for a night. Scott was stuck back in Melbourne and his work was a little quiet so they gave him the week off at short notice so he decided to tag along and he flew into Hobart on Tuesday. He was going to catch the bus to Launceston Yesterday BUT after a slight hiccup in the time Yvette was given he realised that he would have to wait another few hours. So Ryan's mum and Dad decided that it was great duck weather and they might take a nice drive and come up for dinner then go back home that evening!!!! We did say that next time they need to be better prepared and to back at least medications so that they can stya the night next time they do something strange like that. At the moment Roger is not allowed to drive for health reasons so Janet was the designated driver, I did hear that they got back in one piece so that was a good thing. Earlier in the days as the weather was rather yucky and it was not a great idea to go outsie we decided to take the kids to Kids Paradise and they had heaps of FUN!
Ryan and Scott decided to take themselves to the movies to see Angels and Demons and I heard they both really enjoyed it. Yvette and I did the childminding and watched the movie Bride Wars. We decided to get a girl movie as both of our other halves never really enjoy watching chic flicks! It was really good, however Yvette fell asleep through it and woke up every now and again. I think that's what happens when you have a holidays jam packed with plenty to do you crash at night in a warm room with the lights low!
This morning we took them to the bus and they are on their way to Hobart were they will catch up with more family and a few friends for a play date. I reckon they will enjoy going home to have their official rest holiday! We look forward to catching up with them when they come over at Christmas time for a little longer next time.
These two had heaps of fun together!
What great posers they are!

It's always nice having family come to visit!
I bumped into Yvette at the Temple last year, and found out that she got married to a guy we new when we lived in Griffith! Small world hey???

Isn't it amazing that we think of the mainland as being a BIG place and how it would be hard to run into people that you know. BUT strangely enought it always seems to happen! And what a double wham that you knew Scott as well!
