Countdown: 1 Month Left in Australia

I apologize to all of you who follow this blog that I haven't posted recently, but I've had some down and quiet time so there hasn't been much to post about. But for those of you who do not have facebook here have been my last two posts that I think you might enjoy.

This past Thursday was Rosie Blakston (my flute student) and Tamara Blackwood's (Daughter of the family I live with) birthdays! It was fun having Rosie over for her lesson on her birthday and then having her and her family over for dinner with the Blackwood family and I for dinner the following night (Friday).

Here is a picture from her birthday with the brand new music stand her family bought her.

Then this evening (Saturday) I cooked up a traditional American family meal that the Blackwood's couldn't remember the last time that they had it. Rather sad I think.....anyway, I made fried chicken, baked Mac and Cheese, green beans and sliced carrots. And to say the least, not much was said around the dinner table, people were to busy shoving food in their mouths! Always makes the cook feel good when that happens. :)

I apologize for the pictures being so blurry, but I think my camera is on it's last leg! Enjoy!
