The Dodd's

We had a great evening with one of Andrew's oldest friends Chris Dodd and his wife Bernie. He has 4 beautiful little girls, Molly, Alice, Gracie and Georgia. Piper and Polly were having so much fun with the girls. The evening culimnated with 4 little girls in the tub, what fun they had!

Immogen and Piper Meet Again!

So the first time Immogen and Piper met was in London. Then we went to Houston to visit. Then it was off to Mexico where they ran along the beach together. Immogen visited us here in LA and this time they got to meet up in their dad's home city of Melborne. Immogen was off to live in Singapore for the next few years so we were so glad we got to catch up.

Beach Boxes Take Two

We had a chance to go back to the beach boxes and play a bit. We searched for shells and now have quite a collection. It was a cool breezy morning but well worth it.

Sue's House

We went to visit Sue. It was a great morning and the crew played so well together. At one point, I entered Bens's room where I found the boys playing video games while blasting techno. I found Piper in there sitting with the boys bouncing to the beat, too cute!

Lizards in a Pram

We were visiting, Andrew's sister Sue, and Piper discovered they had lizards. Needless to say, the lizards were not left alone from that point on. Alice was very patient with her and help her get use to their sharp claws. We were all in the kitchen chatting when the lizards made their apperance via pram (stroller). Poor lizards.

Yummy Dinner!

Mary cooked a yummy dinner for us while we were visiting. It had some delicious Aussie staples; roast lamb with pavlova for dessert. To say Polly enjoyed the pavlova would be an understatement! FYI- pavlova is a meriange and cream dessert with fruit on top, so good!

Luna Park with Natalie

On the way over on the plane, Piper made quick friends with a little girl named Natalie. Her mom is from the states and her dad is Australian. She also goes to a Montessori school in New Hampshire. We were able to catch up with Natalie and her family at Luna Park. The girls had so much fun together, riding the rides and playing games. Andy, came with us too. He was such a huge help, he would go on rides with the girls, and was patient while they were riding the smaller rides.
