Moving On!

Well... well... well! I have finally caught this blog up to my New Blog, which I started in April in hopes that I could keep that going whilst I caught this one up. But it just didn't happen. It's been a busy year, and I have just found myself doing other things other than blogging. Which is okay I guess, because we can't do everything!!

Anyway, now I will work on getting my new blog up to date (hopefully before Christmas)!

I will no longer be using this one as my storage level is just about full... I'm going private again so if you would like to keep reading, (sorry that there has not been anything to read lately!) leave me your email address or email me at hannahchallis@gmail.com and I'll add you to the list.

Oh... and don't forget to check the new one from now on and not this!!

Easter Up North

We drove up to Launceston on Good Friday and spent the night at Grandma & Poppa's house. The kids were really excited to have all their cousins there too. We had a nice relaxing day on Saturday together with lots of yummy chocolate to go around - what more could you want really!!

Pictures of You

Saturday afternoon Leilani, Emily, Mum and I headed over to Bruny to meet up with Dad at Nan & Bill's. Dad was out fishing so we went and said hello and then the girls and I played on the rocks while Mum went out and caught some fish with Dad.

It's fun taking photos of these two...

















Mystery . Magic . Mayhem

Mount Stuart Primary held their fair on Saturday 27th March with a Mystery, Magic and Mayhem theme. Unfortunately we (girls & I) already had plans to head over to Bruny Island on this day and Mick was studying at work. But we all headed up first thing in the morning for an hour - which was probably enough anyway!

The day before I made a big batch of Rocky Road for the cake stall.


There were heaps of activities and games to play as well as a couple of jumping castles.





Leilani dressed up as a fairy to go along with the 'magic' theme!


This hand rigged contraption (that looked like something Dad had invented) was the dodgiest looking swing ever.... Emily was a little unsure at first - but then LOVED it!


It's so much fun watching your kids squeal with glee!







They were going around a motorised trailer thing and then the man would spin each of them in their seats as well! They loved it!

Bike Riding

Mum was looking after Zak one day for Ange so I headed down for a play. We decided to take the kids to the bike track at Dru Point - but Zak fell asleep on the way, so it was just the girls that got to ride the bikes! Poor Zak. He did wake up in time for a play at the park though!

Here are some photos taken with my iphone of the girls on their bikes. It was such a nice day, quite hot if I remember correctly. They had fun with the traffic lights and stop signs!









Milk and Cookies

We love milk and cookies in this house (and watching the telly whilst having our treat!) We also love to stay in our pj's in the morning for as long as we can!










Because everyday is different and we can't remember them all, I thought I had better start writing them down. Welcome to life in the Challis home - where everyday is different!
