Back on Track

Sorry everyone, I have been slacking this week in getting our next post ready. We did travel out into the country south of Brisbane this weekend but our camera ran out of juice so we were unable to get alot of pictures. Bryan wanted to check out the countryside and see what the local farms and crops were like so we drove a lazy loop just to see what we could find (while Evan took a nap and would tolerate a long bout in the car.) We stopped in Boonah and watched some glider planes as they took off and landed in a grass airfield. Check out their website at www.boonahgliding.com.au. I know this is something that Bryan will go back and try - probably when he isn't dragging a pregnant wife and impatient kid around!

I have also included some additional pictures of interesting sites that we have seen and captured since we arrived . . . but just couldn't find a way to squeeze in . . . some you might find interesting, some you won't!



We are starting to slow down our weekend activities as I start to expand and move slower. This is probably the time when we should be running like mad to fit everything in but I have been starting to move slower and slower as the week goes on and weekends arrive. Only 8 weeks to go (or less) before the next Perry arrives!

Australian Education: Here is a picture of a common birthday and snack treat in Australia - FAIRY BREAD. Bread, butter, and yes - 100s and 1000s on top. Evan doesn't really like this treat yet!

I just caught up on all your blogs & I have to say: How wonderful! This is such a great opportunity for all of you & you really seem to be embracing it! We're so happy that Kay & Tom will be able to go visit you guys, Evan & the new baby. Happy Belated Birthday, Evan! Samuel just celebrated his 4th bday on 8/7 & Caleb will be 2 on 10/20--time is just soaring by! Take care of yourselves & keep up w/the Australian education--I love it! Liz, Todd, Samuel, Caleb & Baby C

I agree with Evan. That's not much of a "treat". I like cake and ice cream better for birthdays....Mema Perry

The bread and butter- sounds yummy!! :) Maybe a pregnant lady would crave something like that! Enjoy your next few weeks with only Evan! :)
