Manning Point -- Sunday 28th December 2008

For those of you that don't know where Manning Point is, its about 26klms east of Taree on the coast.

We went there for the day on Sunday and the nephews paddled their new rowboats they got for Christmas in the river, Kosmo even came along for the day as well, he did some swimming himself..Hubby did some fishing and caught a few fish..

Its a lovely place and we have been going there for many many years, it has been 20 yrs we have been going there on Boxing Day

"My Darling Nephews -- Jai & Sully"

Hey There

Well since Christmas Day life has been jammed packed with lots of Swimming, going to the Beach, getting sunburnt (yes like a tomato), spending time with family.. This is just a quick update, but believe me there is an even bigger update coming within the next few days..

I have taken lots of photos to scrap....Kosmo enjoyed his very first long day trip to Manning Point near Taree with us yesterday, (more about that later on).

These two photos are of me and my nephews, the first one is me with Jai he is now 13, and the second is me with Sully he is now 14, I can't believed they are all grown up, it seems like only yesterday that they were babies.

"Mum's Special Present"

Hey our Mum is one special lady, Look at what Dad gave her for Christmas, a lovely sterling silver locket and chain.

During the year Mum and Dad have brought lots of new furniture for their house, and they brought a new television just the other day, so that was a present to each other from each other(if you know what I mean).

Yes its an 50" inch LG Plasma Television..

MUM would just like to say to our Dad that she loves you very very much...

Mum, Dad and I took a little tikki tour to Nelson Bay today after lunch, we visited D'albora Marina (which you can see in the photo), we walked all the way along the breakwall and back again, there were some people fishing... Then on the way home we went to Anna Bay and went for a walk on the beach, and I got to get my paws wet. I was very well behaved.. The weather was great, and very hot..

"Special Project can now be Revealed"

Hey there,

The surprise that we wanted to show you all in the last post, was something that mum has been working on as a gift to a friend of hers for Christmas. Well we can now show you what it was she has been doing, as Mum gave the gift to her friend yesterday, and guess what she absolutely loved it.. Mum has spend a couple of weeks collecting the bits and pieces to make a Kaiser Album of her friends wedding for her....

This is a present for our Nana Mary, which is Mum's Mum...We hope she likes it..

Kosmo is very special to Santa

Well guess what happened to Kosmo this morning?

Kosmo and Beaver were sleeping on the lounge when all of a sudden we heard the local fire truck siren, and boy it was really loud, so Mum got up and looked out the door and Beaver and I were right beside her looking out the door as well.

Well to our surprise we seen Santa Claus on the back of a ute following the fire truck up the street. Apparently where we live Santa comes around on a fire truck every year to see all the good boys and girls, I decided to let out a little bark at Santa, cause he looks funny in his big red suit...and also a little scary to some of us animals... Well next thing you know Santa is yelling out STOP, go and give that nice lady being our Mum with the furbabies some lollies.

So Mum opened the door and let me out while Beaver stayed inside, the fireman came up to Mum and I and gave us some lollies, and he gave me a nice big pat...So I jumped off the verandah and followed him to the side of the road, but being road aware I came back to my Mum and inside we went, she gave me 2 of the lollies which were yummy snakes. Mum took a picture of my lollie for you all too see as well as a picture of me as well..

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all and to all the other furbabies out there like "SOLO", "CIMMI", "TEDDY" and "BEN"and "HARLEY"....and last but not least my best friend in the whole "BEAVER".....

"Beaver"

Well what can I say about this cat, other than he is my friend, and my best friend at that, last night while mum was at her computer table the cat was sitting behind her on the floor, so she swung around and took some updated photos of him... Sometimes I think he thinks he is just the best well let me tell you "Beaver" you are as far as cats are concerned but me "Kosmo" I am the king of Dogs and just remember that.

Beaver and I are looking forward to Christmas, Mum put up the Christmas Tree today, as well as wrapped all the presents and writing out Christmas Cards. I wonder what Santa will bring Beaver and I this year, last year I got one of those ropes with a ball on the end.

Well Beaver this is your first Christmas ever...We will make it special for you..I can't wait till Christmas Day because I get a fresh bone every year, it seems to take forever to eat it....
