Australia Day

A couple of weeks ago we celebrated Australia Day. We went down to the park where they had set up a fair ground with rides and games and then waited until night time to watch the fireworks. Julianna LOVED the fireworks. She kept pointing at them and shouting, "look!!!" I think we may have been sat a little too close though because we all came away with ash in our hair. Julianna also enjoyed all of the rides and games and even won a giant (and I mean GIANT) pig......I have no idea where we are going to put it.






On another note, we have now finally completed Jonathan's application for permanent residency. Although we are not completely decided on staying here forever, it will mean that he will be able to study here without being classed as an international student (and it costing us a fortune in school fees) and he is eligible for tax breaks and he can also apply for government jobs (which pay a lot better). The process takes a few months so now we just have to wait. 

Also, the bump is keeping its legs crossed so we still have no idea if it's pink or blue.
