Happy Happy New Year!

Another STONKING New Year courtesy of our gorgeous buddies Gillian, Simon and Archie!

We stayed for the Midnight fireworks (as opposed to just the Family 9am show) and they BLEW OUR MINDS! 20 minutes of fire-cracking glory!  Just brilliant!

Here's the calm-before-the-storm view from Gillian's place...

And here's the calm-after-the-storm view of our beautiful Megan on Gillian's rug at about 12:25am, Jan 1 2012!...
Have an awesome 2012!

What a Christmas!

Hi everyone and Happy New Year!
Us lucky lucky Anscombes had the most amazing Christmas lead up celebrating the wonderful nuptials of Matt & Mel and then celebrated an awesome festive weekend with many special friends xx

Sharing Matt & Mel's wedding in Sydney was incredible.  Whilst bitter-sweet that Matt's eldest brother Chris was not able to make it from the US due to serious illness, we treasured every second that we were able to share with the Rawbone clan and I think Chris & Michelle's spirit was in me (Mama A) as I captured some magic moments of the day...








A wonderful and amazing day - more photos are on Mama A's facebook page.

Then came Christmas Day and we were thrilled to host Noel & Heather, Greg & Alison with Jacob and Taylor, Dawn and Malcolm, and Lara & Jespa with little James!  Captain A really had his cooking pants on and did us proud with full Roast Chicken Dinner (... with yorkshire puds, of course!).  Noel swam more than he thinks he's ever swum in his life!... and boy, did the children all appreciate his endless and joyous enthusiasm! xx

Pippa, conspicuous by her absence, was swimming... all day!
"Touch"
"Pause..."
"ENGAGE!"

Happy happy happy days!
