Halloween Party

As we hadn't hosted a party in a while and with Halloween being a fun time (although not really celebrated here in Perth much) we decided to go for the party at our house.

After several change of plans we settled on costumes of a black widow spider and the fly caught in the web, with Logan going from a spider to a superhero in a realisation that he wouldn't probably wear a costume that was too elaborate!

The Black widow and Zombie woman

And Yes I am wearing tights (they told me I had to...)
We had a really turn out as everyone got very dressed up and the ladies did a very good job of lots of ghoul-tastic food, especially the cup cakes and dead mans hand punch.




Romping around Rotto

After a lot of planning we took a few days break over on Rottnest Island (rotto) with the "crew" which coincided with Ollies birthday and was coincidentally 4 years since we had last spent a night on the island.

So after packing the car with more biking gear than Hoppys(an old reference) we got the ferry from Hillary's on Friday morning and got over there around midday. Wandered round the main area for a while and I took Logan on his first island ride in his trailer, where he prompted fell asleep, so first brownie points for Phil!

Just back from a swim

Then our accommodation was available so we got things sorted and were pleasantly surprised by the old style wooden house compared to the brick building we had stayed in last time.



Was great staying there for a few days so we could really get into the swing of things and take some rides round the island, with some sucker(yours truly) pulling the trailer for about 2 hours up and down the hills :)



Chilling out at some beaches (with some snorkelling of course) and having some good evenings with everyone, especially down at the bar right at the beach!


And I think Logan found his first girlfriend, Harriet.



And some of the best moments where when Logan met the Quokkas, including one morning when a particularly inquisitive Quokka came visiting one morning.

Are you after my breakfast?
