Just letting you know!

Yes it is on again!
Each year the woman of our family youngest to oldest gather together and have a great time visiting with each other over a few days.
So this weekend it is on again. We have hired a seaside home (even if it is winter) and we are going to learn how to make a sponge cake and other great idears.
I am going to travel over on Thursday to meet up with most of the other woman of our family so I will be away for a few days but will bring back some great photos and stories to share.

This is one of those events a few years ago.
The funny thing is the men all have to stay home while we all get together. I am not sure if the men are happy but it is great for us girls.
In the past we have had gatherings that spanned over 5 generations and the great memories we make on these trips are wonderful and for forever.
So I fly out tomorrow and will be back Sunday night so will visit you all next week my dear blogger friends.
This is my Wednesday - filled with anticipation

Fabulous idea, the world would be a better place if more people did this kind of thing.

Hope you had plenty of rain up there, Lee-Ann. There was a good old fashioned downpour in Melbourne today.

Janice said...

Lucky you to have so many women in your family! And to get away like that for some fun - fabulous idea! Have a great time and I look forward to photos.

This sounds like a great way to spend some time, it's nice to hear of a family that still makes the effort to meet up like this, so many families now hardly see each other apart fom weddings and funerals. Hope you have a wonderful time.

Hi there's some lovely photos on this blog. I love that nowadays people share their family albums etc... why not?!?
Came here via Merle's Aussie List ...
I've loads of family Down Under and yet I hardly ever seemed to meet bloggers from Australia... no idea why. It's not like Aussies are thin on the ground, is it?
This is a lovely site, I'm glad I came.
I'm at http://gledwood2.blogspot.com
if you want to drop by any time you're most welcome.
See you later maybe ...
All the best

Have a wonderful time..... I am also looking forward to the photos! By the way, your anniversary post was absolutely beautiful. Sorry I am a little late catching up. Congratulations, belatedly!

Annie Jeffries said...

Oh Lee-Ann, I would give anything in the world to do something like that. But small families don't themselves to such gatherings. I'm with you in the spirit of the idea though.

You have a wonderful time with your female relatives. What a wonderful idea. Are we going to get photos?
