We have had some record temperatures here in the Hutt Valley over the last few weeks and just as it was starting to cool down guess what I did! I went to Brisbane for the weekend. Not long after I got there, it rained!! The heat returned the next day and it wasn’t much different to how it has been here in New Zealand.
My eldest son, his wife and their two boys live in Brisbane so as often as I can I head over the ditch to visit with them. It was a very short trip this time – just the weekend – but it gave me time to see my grandsons and take some photographs of them to keep me going until the next visit.
The two boys couldn’t be more different. Lucas is very strong willed and is very particular about what he wants, with “eggs” being the food of the moment. I did introduce him to corn flakes while I was there though. Elijah on the other hand is very easy going and just likes food! He is a happy wee chap and only seems to cry when he is tired or hungry.
On Sunday evening – my last night with them – we went to a park to get some family photographs. Lucas was more interested in pulling the bark off the trees than sitting for a photo and Elijah would look anywhere except where the camera was. But we managed to get some lovely images and I hope my son and his wife are happy with them.
And yes this is me with my grandsons 🙂
