So today I took the kids to their first Comic Book convention today. We all headed out to SupaNova at Olympic Park this morning. Trudy decided to skip it, but gave the kids strict instructions, if dad starts to nerd out too much to get him to calm down.
We saw heaps of Star Wars stuff, some Sega stuff (the kids met Sonic) and of course lots and lots of Comic.
We also saw plenty of “people” dressing up as their favorite comic/cartoon characters. See the rest of the pictures here.
Wow what a massive day we have had today. We all got up early and headed to the city for the MS Fun Run.
We would have had heaps of time to warm up, but Dad got lost on his way to Hyde Park. I mean its not like I work there everyday and know where I am going!
Anyway we got there will about 2 minutes to spare. We crossed the start line about 10.10am and finished about 11.40am
Well the time has come for the Ronnies to move to a bigger house. Our current place has served us well, but with a growing family more space is needed.
Wow, what a massive weekend we all had. I spend all day Saturday moving my little Bro into his new house. Then on Sunday we had a equally massive day.
We headed into the City early to see Auntie Ang cross the line for the Sydney Half Marathon.
We then spend the afternoon in Hyde Park having a nice picnic.
After heading home we had about 45 minutes to relax and then headed out to the Little Athletics presentation night. Both the boys got trophies which was great. Mum and Dad are very proud.
Even dad got a certificate for being a parent helper
All in all a great day/night.
All the lunch in the city photos are here and the Little Athletics ones are here.
Today we headed over to Gladesville for a Birthday Party. My godson Elijah turned one. It doesnt seem that long since I had seen him last, but he has grown up heaps!
The kids had a blast running all over the place. The highlight for me was the amazing Disney inspired cake.
By the end of the party the poor little guy had just had so much fun that he needed a nap. He slept through all the Happy Birthday singing
Guys! 6.30pm Sydney time we will be hopefully on Australias Funniest Home Video show. Make sure you watch. I am hoping to capture it to DVD and put our bits up on Youtube.
Over a year and a half ago, we “finished” doing up our Kitchen. (home owners out there know that a house is never really finished, there is always something to do) Well we left the floor, we would do that later.
This weekend was that later.
I sanded and Trudy vacuumed and mopped. Once it was ready to go, she did the edges and I mopped on the main bit. Here are the 2 before shots.
And here are the 2 after shots
Looks good hey! We stayed off it for about 20 hours. We decided that one coat would be OK, so we started moving everything back in. While moving in the fridge we scratched a big line in the new stain!!! ARRRRRG
Good thing I planned to have a few days off in the next two weeks, guess I will be putting on that second coat after all.
