Busy Days

Well, life is mighty peachy in the Isa. We've just waved off the last of our company and now it's time to hit the sack for an early night!! We have had a busy few weeks and a full house, but it has been tremendous fun! The workers came to stay for about a week and Rhys was spoiled rotten with so much attention and so many friends! Lucky that when the workers moved on we had some more friends coming to stay the next day...no time for withdrawals! Our friend from WA, Helena Bruce, brought some of her friends from England (Marcus and Wilma) over to Mt Isa to give them the "outback" experience! We had so much fun playing games until wee hours of the night, and when our brains were exhausted, we listened to hilarious Scottish comedy until the wee-er hours of the morning! Now with our guests well and truly on their way, Eldon and I are contemplating an early night...we are getting old! Anyway, it was worth the lost sleep!
Rhys is walking like a champ now! He is growing into such a little boy! He is teething like crazy at the moment...ugh! Anyway, here are some random pictures of our busy days!

Lake Moondarra...actually a dam, but a very nice place for picnic lunch

This is one of many peacocks and hens which live around the lake
