Into the wet season....the monsoon cometh...

I am sorry, and quite horrified how long it has been since last post. I am very well, and keeping extremely busy with work. I am now qualified-I have my Diploma which will allow me to work wherever in the world I want. I have been back and forwards out of Darwin- several trips back to NZ, several trips back to Alice,(for work), and last week a trip to Nhulunbuy(which is on the Gove Peninsula- on the western tip of the Gulf of Carpentaria).Nhulunbuy would have to be one of the world's best kept secrets- absolutely beautiful. Turquoise seas+white sands+ palms- what else is there?

This post I will just touch on some of the exciting things that have been happening to my family-

I went back for 4 days early June for Anna and Craig's wedding

It was such a happy day even though a fleeting visit for me-4days !!!

Early September I was priviledged to be part of the birth of Marlee Catherine Campbell. She is very dark- was 9 1/2 lb at birth- a big girl. Anna has maternity leave until January, and then I think Craig is to be a house husband. They are all doing well.

these photos are all at 2 weeks old.....

This one was yesterday- 5 weeks old-

taken with her very proud dad....

In the next week or two, Sara is expecting her second baby....they are going to be a very busy parents. I think Hugo(3 in Jan) keeps them on the run. I am heading over to help later in November.

Laura has been a very clever girl and lost 50kgs- I am proud of her life changing,(and life saving) effort. She is feeling so much better.

I have also had trips to Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth- some for work, and some for pleasure. The airpoints are stacking up nicely!!!!

I will endeavour to keep the posts coming a little bit more regularly. I haven't got out much with the camera- my main lens was in Canon hospital for 3 months- finally got it back last week. Will be able to get out and about in the weekends now. Quite disabled without the camera !!!!

Take care- I am sure ChCh is warming up..spring was beautiful while I was back. I do miss the seasons- all the same here.....
