The Newlyweds A-Come A-Visiting

Aftre three days of squally wet weather, Saturday dawned fine for our lunch with Shaun & Julia and Wogs & Kay.
It worked out well with hockey. Withh all Kiama , Shellharbour and Wollongong Council grounds closed because of all the rain, hockey still went ahead, because their grounds NEED the water. Our guys played Seacliff, and won 3-0, making it two wins in a row. Jess did not play as goalkeeper, and played in the halves. After the game, she said that she has now decided that she enjoys playing there rather than in goals, which is good. But we'll wait until next week and see what happens.

Julia & Shaun and Wogs & Kay turned up just before midday, as well as Mum & Dad. The Parker's and the Wallace's arrived  not long after. The day was spectacular, clear, not a cloud in the sky, and warm enough on The Deck for shorts and a T-shirt. Amazing.

I did a BBQ for lunch. I had sausages and rissoles for the kids, along with some Texas sausages and curry rissoles and madras steak. Helen made her new favourite salad, Louise also brought a salad, and Angela some bread rolls. Mum also made choclate trifle, which was great, except that it should only ever be made for ME and me alone.

It was great to catch up with the Sydney people, and also to have everyone over at our house for a change. Now we all look forward to being invited up to the new house upon its completion.
