Andy got some good work done today, pretty soon we’ll be able to use the rainwater tank which is already full:
Then Andy discovered a new piece of furniture to sit on:
In the meantime I got a fun action shot of Jam:
Got to love action shots, ten points for anyone who can spot Jelly in the same picture.
…and we never did share those photos we took when that building in Silverwater caught on fire ages ago did we? It was a plastics building so lots of black smoke and this is what we could see from our house.

Mal came around to say hi to Jelly and Jam a fortnight ago, they’ve grown a bit since then:
We took a couple of photos…
They seem to really enjoy rolling around in fresh kitty litter, playing in the shower and pouncing on each other:

Went to Salamander Bay with the family for a sort of long weekend, we took the motorbike up and stayed at the Oaks Pacific Blue Resort which was really cool.
We stayed in a 3 bedroom townhouse which had a private plunge pool although the entire resort was surrounded by a man made lagoon with little spas and beaches around it, we’d highly recommend staying there if you ever go up near Port Stephens.
We also hung out at the beach and found an awesome beach with dogs that chewy would have loved.
The place was really very comfortable, it had laundry stuff so we could wash our towels during the day. Me and Andy got the bedroom with the TV and balcony which was nice. 
We had buffet dinner there the first night which wasn’t as nice as it should have been because they stopped making food while we were there and we had to keep asking for stuff and the dessert was all gone by the time we got to it. Word to the wise, never arrive late to a buffet.
We took Putty Road on the way home which had heaps of motorbike danger signs, it’s nice and windy so it’s popular with the bike hoons. Thanks goes to Mala and Andrew for the awesome short break from work (and working on the house).

It was actually a few weeks ago but little miss Mia Ivy came to see us (and Jojo and Dana too!) and we never ended up taking any pics with our camera. Joanne has been kind enough to send us her photos to share with you all on our blog. Enjoy:
Mia is so welcome to come back any time, everybody loved her (and Jojo and Dana).
Padma Wijesekara, my grandmother on my mothers side, passed away quietly in her sleep last week with the funeral taking place tomorrow. 
Having left Sri Lanka shortly after we settled in Australia, she kept an eye on us kids and we have so many funny and wonderful stories from those years but in recent years she had been quite ill and was being taken care of by the lovely nurses at the Donald Coburn Center nearby when she passed away. We saw her the night before and it did look like she was at peace but she will be missed greatly.
Chewy has discovered out bean bags…

Your kitty cats are so cute! Chewy’s not bad either!

*laughs* Aww, did Andy nudge Chewy out of the “comfy chair” or vice versa? =) Great job on the water tank! Will it be linked to watering systems? Jam & Jelly are so adorable. ><

Hi Cynthia!
Haha yeah chewy’s used to it. Yup the tank will be linked to the watering system according to Andy, almost everything will I think.
