Its been six weeks already since we have been home....seems like only yesterday we were busily counting down the 200+ days til we left for holidays!

:( How sad. Time to plan for more adventures.

Everyone is settled back into school. Prue is in year 5, Julian in year 7, Madi is in year 9 and Michaela is in her last year of school ! Eek ! Time is just flying by! I have a "stand in" newbie principal for this year. My regular boss has been seconded. It has been "interesting" of late.

On Friday, we finally got our solar panels added to our roof. Hopefully we will see a huge reduction to our power bills. Next on the agenda is a water tank then more food storage. After that we save for our next holiday?! Hmm...camping is cheap! :)

Today we bought Julian a flute so that he can continue with lessons at school. Thanks to Hailey, we managed to find a few in the papers - we found a suitable one in Ellenbrook for $175. Could have been hundreds more so I was grateful for the find ! We also signed up for another season of soccer, which will begin in April sometime.
