Went shooting

beretta

So we went clay shooting yesterday with Adam Tyler (an Athen’s Olympic Bronze medalist and two time Commonwealth Gold medalist) showing us how it’s done.

After playing Counter Strike with the guys at office it felt good too hold a real live Beretta shot gun. Got four of the first five shots in the first round.

Here’s one where I hit the clay.

Melbourne

It’s been nearly four months since I moved to Melbourne and having been in Sydney six months prior, Melbourne was indeed a welcome change.

Although it’s very easy to forget how beautiful it is here. My favorite part of the daily commute is the ten minute walk through Fawkner Park (named after Melbourne’s co-founder).

Here’s a bird’s eye view of Fawkner park.

A few from today’s morning walk.

On sunny days we grab our lunch and head downstairs to have it at the park. It’s no wonder Melboune has consistently been at the top spot in the World’s Most Livable Cities list over the years.

Someone turns two

It was Joshua’s 2nd birthday yesterday. All the kids had a blast at the local Playzone. Check out the rest of the pictures.

Rafael’s first steps

Rafael took his first steps at home yesterday and unlike Joshua who had an audience to cheer his first step, Rafael had only his mamma to congratulate him.

I’ll try to get a video the next time he does it again. He’s a month ahead of when Joshua started walking.

Oh Christmas Tree

Looks like we weren’t the only people putting up the Christmas tree over the weekend. Nethmi seems to be having a whale of a time making up her own jingle.

In our case it wasn’t a jingle and we knew the tree wouldn’t last with our two rascals. So I get home today to find the tree missing all the decorations a two year old can reach.

And the culprit tired after a day’s work.
