She came up on the bus and stayed with us.
I took her to visit Poppa and Nanna. I thought my dad was going to cry, he looked so proud of her and couldnt stop hugging her and looking at her. Its been a while since they have seen her.
I took Zoe and Shannon to Mildura to catch up with their uncle and auntie. As it turns out auntie had to go to work but we saw Uncle Chub and managed to have a whirlwind shopping trip.We had lunch at the food court in Centro Plaza. Boy and hasnt that changed since we lived there way back when Leigh was born! Phew over 18 years ago!

Shan also managed to do some apricot scraping and cutting. We were kinda lucky this year in that the season started about the 6th of December instead of about the 14th. And as i had this as a draft and am finishing this off on NYE our seaon has finished early. Apricots not due to be picked until the end of January, along with our Peaches are actually all picked and we were cutting peaches today.
We didnt need to employ any kids at all like we usually do. Actually we employed 6 adults and i tell you what, yes they are more expensive but they get in there and do the jobs. Kids, to be fair get tired and when the work is done they just want to go, and dont we all but it was great to have the shed cleaned up usually within 15 minutes of finishing cutting so that takes the pressure off alot!
While Zoe worked and Shan was here we hung out doing last minute Christmas shopping and food bits and pieces. This year i was SO NOT organised. I had no idea what to get Zoe. We ended up getting here some dvds and a heap of bits and pieces she needed, clothes, burnable dvds for music, perfume, bathers ect. Very tricky!
It was very sad to see Shan go home on the bus:( Zoe has been missing her actually.
Well you take care and thanks for popping by:)
