Here we are!



 Us and our cheesey grins at a lovely barbecue for our lovely friends, who up and moved to Australia this week (sniff).
Mr Leota is holding our 3 year old, we only stopped calling him "The Baby" over Christmastime.  I am holding our 5 year old - I'm the one with my sunglasses still on my head.  In the dark.  I've been known to leave them up there until 11 at night. Sad but true!  Mr 9 year-old is showing off his humungous teeth - they look too big for him, he's so cute... and Miss 7 is doing a nice little model pose but unfortunately in this shot, not looking at the camera.  But she's pretty cute too!
I permit myself some bias, I am, after all, their mother...
