ANZAC DAY..... 2008



This morning we went to our first ANZAC parade in Darwin... the boys were all excited... Justin 'daddy' was all dressed up in his uniform with his medals for the parade... the boys excitedly waived their Aussie flags... and loved the armoured cars, the horses, the air-dogs and the helicopters that were doing fly-bys throughout the parade...but missed daddy walking past! We were lucky to secure a shadyish spot on the side of the road... and we were glad as by the end of the parade... at 9.30ish it was getting hot..

After the parade we returned home to watch the Dawn Service in GAllipoli and Villers-Bretoneirs.... on TV... and have a sleep!!!

Joshie I am sure has an ear for music... the only parts of the Dawn Service he watched were the National Anthems of Turkey, NZ and Australia...which were all sang by Tenors... he was glued to the TV... he might have talent yet... NO pressure here Josh... but the next Aussie Hugh Jackman would make mummy & Nanny very happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope everyone had a great Anzac Day... since having the kids this is the first Anzac Day I have had in which I didn't SCRAP.... another tradition quashed by the move North Trace?


Cheers
