Olivia and Gerrard's Birthday last weekend.

We had a lovely Saturday afternoon celebrating Olivia's 19th Birthday and Gerrard's 40+ Birthday last weekend.  It was great to catch up with everyone, as we only get to see Gerrard's side of the family at birthdays.

Trowunna Wildlife Park

We spent a lovely morning at Trowunna Wildlife Park at Mole Creek, we could pat the wombat and Tasmanian Devil.  It was a cold frosty start to the day but was so much fun.
