September 29: Manly Lantern Parade




















This weekend saw the annual Manly Lantern Parade.  The weather wasn't great and when we arrived there were very few people around.  We thought that the event may have been cancelled but actually the start of the parade had moved to the other side of town!  By the time the parade arrived at the art gallery there were so many people around that it was almost impossible to get a decent photo - never mind Daisy had a go at capturing a few 'atmospheric' shots for the blog.  Surprisingly they were better than our efforts!

September 23: Jack's party






















Todays was Jack's 4th birthday party at North Harbour Reserve.  The kids all had a great time tearing around the playground and filling their faces with loads of yummy party food.  There were even bacon & egg rolls for the grown-ups (thanks Matt & Tess!).  As you can see from the photos the weather was fantastic for a party.  Lets hope the rest of the summer will be like today!
