Sunday Morning Pancakes. Living in Kalgoorlie for the past 3 1/2 years we didn't have the luxury of extended family around so it was lonely at times, especially when Erin worked so hard and was away from us more than we liked. I decided to create activities for us to look forward to like and we ended up with "Fun Friday", "Try something new Tuesday", "Techno free Thursday" and "Pancake Sunday". These have become part of our family traditions.
Papa Dave (Erin's Dad) started a new extended family tradition of monthly Family Home Evenings. It involves rotating around each families home to spend time together, have a short lesson, fun game and yumo dessert. This month was our turn. I love this new tradition, no matter how busy we all are during the month we spend time together as an extended whanau every month. The kids love hanging out with their cuzzies. Here's some pics from the most recent one at our place.

This guy is crack up.(Picture credit to Hannah). She was my kitchen hand and photography assistant, she will give anything a go!
Also she got selected with a few other students out of the whole school to do some extremely adventurous activities next year, like bungy jumping, white water rafting, etc. I heard from an inside source that she's pretty much the most liked student at her school.
