While we were in the metropolis of Brisbane we attended to some improvements to the van, organised flu vaccinations and tried to catch up with our family, in between all the work they do in second and third jobs !
They were very busy unfortunately, but we did what we could and then there were preparations for Jessica's engagement celebration. A blue top for me to wear (as a connection of Jessica's) (red depicted Jason), decorations for the venue etc.
We packed up and moved on the Thursday to Scarborough C/Park where Chris and John had booked a unit to stay in.
It was hot and making it even worse it was humid, hard to live with - J and C turned up as we were setting up and it was a happy reunion.
We set about showing them some of the higlights of Brisbane that John and I had discovered - including the Sushi Train in Redcliffe - and they enjoyed it too.
Then it was Saturday afternoon and we were happy to meet up with all the members of our and Jason's family, including our son Michael and Tracy who had flown up from Temora that morning specially to attend his neice's celebration. A lovely time was had by all, the venue had been decorated by our daughter Leanne and her girls and it looked lovely. Jess and Jason were quizzed on aspects of their life together and that produced some jollity, the odd small speech and toasts.
All my girls looked beautiful in their special outfits and it was really joyous.
Afterward we went to Leanne & Scott's home, more food and some drinks.
Altogether a very lovely day.
