Eight Excellent Experiences

Patrick's 8th Party Last year

"The Hub" Kids Paradise

(not a great photo but he was sick for a week after this

and we didn't take many photos)

Patrick is 9 tomorrow, and we've been talking about the highlights of his year, and came up with these...

January

The first time we knew which kitten was ours - the lovely Sassy! We had "met" her before, but weren't sure at that stage which one was ours. Patrick loves Sassy, and she loves him - they are very cute together!
February
Patrick started Scouts and Grade Three on the same day. Guess which one he loves??
March
Patrick began drumming with the Esk Band in March, and loves the hour and a half lesson every Tuesday - doesn't love the practise though!!!
April
This month was very exciting as Patrick was invested at Cubs, and also went in his first march - the ANZAC Day Parade - with his Pack.
May
Patrick began school swimming lessons at Grammar every day for 2 weeks. There were Grade 3 and 4's, and he made it into the top group - and stayed there!
June
We went to New Zealand, and although Paddy lived their briefly as a baby, it was the first time he remembered meeting all his sisters together, and his Grandad. We had a fantastic time!
July
Tracey and Quinn came back with us from New Zealand in June, and Patrick has spend time in July getting to know his nephew!
August
August has been a busy month with lots of things happening. A fantastic new billy cart, the Olympics, meeting Andy Griffiths, getting his Bronze Boomerang, playing in the snow for the first time, and of course - the big day tomorrow!

HAPPY LAST DAY BEING 8 PATRICK!
