With Ray & Viv home for the summer it was a really good excuse for some family and friends get togethers    Over the last few weeks there have been barbecues, dinner out, drinks, you name it we found an excuse to spend time with family and friends. Even a rather wet and blustery beer festival didn't dampen out spirits.

On bank holiday Monday we all gathered at Hils where despite torrential rain for days the sky cleared and summer appeared!  It was so nice sitting in the sun and catching up with friends and family we had not seen for a while. 

I am used to Ray & Viv living so far away but now they have been back for a couple of months I  realise how much we miss them being near us.  It's just as well we love Queensland and can plan our next visit
