Some "not so new" photos and a quick Alison update

Okay so these photos were taken of Aimee and Lucy enjoying some time feeding the fish in the pond at home. Must admit we were very sceptical when plans for The Pond were announced but it has turned out really well and proves to be a nice little walk away from home. Before the weather really started heating up, the girls would ask to walk to the pond and feed the fish. These photos were taken during one of Mom's breaks while putting together the school yearbook.



Okay along with the pond photos, this is us at Lucy's Preschool Graduation.
AND Andre got to meet a few more international rugby players when he reffed or ran touch (I honestly can't remember sorry my love) at an international day at Bahrain Rugby Club. Seen here with my man are Colin Charvis and Dan van Zyl although his photo with 7's legend Waisale Serevi at the Dubai 7's a year or so ago (when he ran touch in the final, along with reffing etc.) was a HUGE thing - if I can find the photo I'll post it :)


News on Alison :
She is coming on so well. We had a good weekend at home this last one - of course Alison getting very frustrated with all of us as we tried to ensure she didn't fall. (She is not 100% on her right leg and still catches her toes occassionally as she walks). Back to Entebeni Rehab on Monday morning and we started doing stair work to get Alison into bending her right knee so that would enable her to walk straight not swing her leg out to move around. It was hard work and after a few times up and down the flight, we were both glad therapy was over for the morning. Her speech is also improving daily and over the weekend she even managed to tell me I was getting fat and developing a bit of a double chin, I should be doing all the situps; bumlifts, leglifts and squats with her ! Sorry to say - NO ! Andre you'll just have to live with the fat, I have no energy to do any exercise :)
Taken a break from therapy today as Alison seems to have a little bug and needs to rest. God is so good and His hand is really on her as she gets well again, Thankyou to everyone who continues to pray for her.

My darling - I miss you and can't wait to have you here with us soon xxxxx

Thanks for the note Tafeltjie.
Andre is still away on the other side of Saudi but I have passed on the news and he is thrilled.
