One of the best things was my daughters 21st last Sat. Great party with responsible kids. They grow up so quick.

At the beginning of this year I went out on my own and left my previous real estate company.

I was scared s...less in the beginning but it has been the best year and I've thoroughly enjoyed it!!

the best thing this year would have been our 2 week holiday out to Birdsville and back again.  things didn't go smoothly on the trip to say the least, but it's still great to get away with the family and go camping no matter what happens IMHO. yesterday our kids gave us (the wife and myself) a folder they had made at after school care, it was wishing us a Merry Xmas and inside was some pictures of what they'd been up through the year etc etc. on one page is labelled "MY FAVURITE MEMORY OF 2013 WILL ALWAYS BE".....one child has drawn a picture of a tent and campfire, listing "going to Cania Gorge Big 4 Caravan Park Water Park" as their favourite memory (which we did on said holiday), whilst the other has drawn another camping themed picture and written "Camping" as her favourite memory for the year
got to be happy with those response i reckon  8) 8) 8)

2013 has been a hell of a year. A couple of major injuries to contend with but the highlight of the year would have to be the fact that we are ending the year having created a new family unit that is strong and can survive whatever Shit is thrown our way.

It's been a really bad year for us with bad news after bad news. Hopefully with our wedding just before Christmas we can finish off the year on a high and bring on a better year in 2014

Weekends & Holidays.   :cup:

But apart from that, I've started 'giving back' by volunteering for QLPR as well as becoming a Foster Mum for 'between home' cats.

And we've camped in the CT more this year than any before.  That's always good!   ;D
