Smokin'

Hello everyone and thank you for all the messages during the week. As you know by now Victoria was hit by some disastrous bushfires. They were for the most part, north of us but one or two were only a 10 minute drive away. We are fine though and the one that was in Bendigo didn't harm any of Brad's family so we are very thankful. Last week we didn't get up to much. There has been a lot of focus on the fires and the victims killed and the houses lost. We went out for Valentines night on Thursday to Koko at Crown (domo arigato Leanne for the voucher which we only used now!). It was lovely Japanese and we had lots of food. Yesterday we went to visit with Brad's parents in Bendigo. We had lunch with Helen, John, Heather and Les before working on our invitaions for our blessing in June. We also stopped by Brad's grandparents for a visit too!

Yes so there's plenty of smoke around Melbourne the past few days. Luckily everyone I know is alright although a friend from work lost his home and belongings. Weather has cooled a little this week after Saturdays record 47 degree day.
Koko was great (thanks again Leanne). I ate seaweed, sushimi, prawns (Aimee's as well), squid, rice, salad, fish, chicken, steak and icecream. I felt like I was going to explode! Put in the official notice at work too this week so i'll be all done on the 11th of March. Hopefully that should leave enough time for me to sort things out here before the big move!
