Yet another fantastic Easter was had by the Parthenides family. It was full and fabulous. I guess you could say that April was a great month kicked off with a visit from Papa Parthenides, Grum, Tamara, Geoff and their daughter Charlotte. We all had a night at the Gold Coast together and of course Mia and Asha stayed and got thoroughly spoilt!
It has become apparent to me that Liz does not like being in photos. We had a great time and is always wonderful for the girls especially to see their Papa and Grum.
The next big thing in April was heading to Sydney to visit the Spicers. I hadn't been to check out Marni's and Tom's pad yet and to tell you the truth it felt like I had gone to England. Sooo many similarities! I guess it really feels like you are in the big smoke....yes Brisbane is a little country town, well what I experience of it anyway and you know what? I like it! But I was given a clearer insight into why Tom might have a few problems moving here....perhaps in retirement huh Tom?
We went to Marni's local park which had people on horseback going around in circles as well as any other mode of transport you can imagine. We also checked out Marni's local fave beaches, which were lovely. We did make a trip out to her National Park too, which I have to say was a little disappointing as you drive through all this wonderful uninhabited space to then pull up at a place that even has it's local IGA and bottle'o ....still it was a lovely spot, regardless of having to pay to be there! Truly love spending time with my nephews and of course it was awesome to get to know where they all spend their days together.
