Greta and Ab and their kids Aya, Griffin and Lily are currently in Melbourne.  We stayed with them for a few days (this is them doing a bit of karaoke in Washington DC) when we did our world tour, and now they are scoping out Melbourne with the prospect of moving out here.

Anyway, it was Aya's birthday, and they are staying about 3 minutes walk away from it, so it was off to the Collingwood Children's Farm again.  Yay!

]]> And ANOTHER farm! tag:vox.com,2007-10-14:asset-6a00ccff84f428985d00e398b2ac660004 2007-10-14T09:47:48Z 2007-10-14T09:47:48Z C&N&Gen http://gcb.vox.com/?_c=feed-atom-full

It was the Playgroup catchup on Saturday so we decided to all go to the Collingwood Children's Farm as the farmer's market was on.

The kids had a ball!  Genevieve signed a petition against GE Foods, adopted 2 trees for the farm and saw lots of animals.  There were cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, goats and pigs.  Everything was going well until a pig stole Genevieve's pear so she stuck her finger up his nostril. 

That wasn't the funniest thing though, Henry was giving the goats cuddles and kisses but unfortunately the goat had his back to him so Henry planted one right on the goat's bottom.

]]> An afternoon on the farm tag:vox.com,2007-10-07:asset-6a00ccff84f428985d00e398b042db0003 2007-10-07T10:51:02Z 2007-10-07T10:51:02Z C&N&Gen http://gcb.vox.com/?_c=feed-atom-full

My Aunty Verna turned 80, so there was a big party at my Cousin's - Kerrie.  We were lured by the prospect of some great food (CWA Cookbook goodness), but once we got there, we realised the highlight would be the fact that Genevieve would get to see (and hear) cows and sheep in real life.

Moooo
Nanna really wanted to show her off so it was a given that we'd go.  I also managed to get a haircut beforehand too, so she was happy about that (although she didn't want to say anything about it).

The food was great.  The sponge was awesome (I generally don't like sponge).  There was a huge array of slices including one with bananas in it.  No... not 'real' bananas.  The lolly ones!  Hey... don't knock it until you've tried it!
