Weekend XXX :: uncle nick

My brother Nick is in town for a week, supposedly to catch up with everyone but really to meet the new little pork chop. On Sunday, we all had a family picnic together, and Nick got to spend some quality time with Abby Victoria. Things went along swimmingly.

And Abby thought the attention was grand -- at least for a little while.

But eventually it was all too much. She Is Not Amused.

* * * * *

Conversations:

Katie -- I can relate to that, too. So many of my dearest friends are ones I met online. One of them (hello, Ruth!) I met when she lived in far NSW but now we're both south east Queenslanders. It's very cool. Hopefully you, too, will end up with an excellent online buddy right around the corner (and I mean that in the least weird way possible)!

Laura Elizabeth -- I still haven't found The Eagle available ANYWHERE in Australia but I finally caved and ordered it from Amazon UK. I hope it arrives this week! I've lurked a few YouTube clips which of course are all a bit slashy owing to the bromantic nature of the story and I like what I've seen. I hope it's not too terrible!

Jessica -- it's definitely a cool story. It amazes me still, now, four years later! Haha and you're right about the 'present husband' bit. I amended it a little ;).

Mothercare -- she is :)

Rebecca Simon -- yes, it's such an awesome little present from God! I'm amazed how many people I've met long distance who have become friends to keep in touch with throughout all the new seasons of life -- you included!

Bek Axe -- YOU are the seriously cool one.

  1. Little Abby is too cute in her little headband!!
    And going back to our Eagle conversation... I saw it playing last week at my local cinema on the Gold Coast at 8.45pm on a Saturday but couldn't wheedle my mum into going with me, so I thought I'd just go and see it in Brisbane, but you're right... it's nowhere to be found! You'll have to let me know how it is!

  4. Aww - she is SO CUTE!! I think my nephew's checks might equal (if not rival:) hers when he is that old. So glad that Nick gets to visit. Nothing quite fills the whole brothers create when they leave.
    Hugs honey!
