Parents Arrive!

Hi there!
I had a busy day yesterday getting the house nice and the dining room table cleared off so I could impress my Mum πŸ™‚
It was lovely to see my folks again… hadn’t seen Dad in nearly a year!
They came over with their car on the Spirit of Tasmania boat. They travelled overnight and disembarked early this morning.

They kindly collaborated with Ruby and went in to have breakfast with her so they would arrive at our place not so early (because we all know how great I am at early mornings hee hee)
Ruby was so excited about having them come in for breakfast! She was all ready the other day!!

We had a second breakfast here and a late lunch after a tour around the property so they could see the million half done projects and check out our fallen tree.
I had to duck into town, so we swung by Fossil Bluff to get a bit of beach time!

I knitted Dad that beanie and I think it really suits him! The pure home spun wool is nice and warm too!

It was a bit chilly today, not too bad, but harder for Mum and Dad to walk about in t-shirts as they aren’t used to the Tassie weather just yet! (Ok… I wasn’t in a t-shirt either!!)

Was great watching this parachutist glide in over the bluff! I could only imagine the gorgeous views he/she would have been getting!

It was nice to go back home to the warm fire and relax. I had put a slow cooked beef casserole in the oven at midday so all I had to do tonight was put the rice on and we were set! Just the thing.
Everyone is now in bed and I should follow suit so I don’t sleep in too much! Things to do tomorrow!
Cheers!
