Family Business

Last weekend we got to spend some time with some relatives we hadn't met before. Izzy (my cousin's daughter) is visiting as an exchange student. Also on the guest list was Daniel (my other cousin's son) who lives here in Melbourne. Izzy's host Madi, two of my kids, and Daniel's three half-siblings were all there, so it was a fun filled day for them, all put on by Deb and David, the host parents for the student exchange. Thanks to everyone for coming together and having such a lovely day!
Madi is on the left here, and Izzy in the middle.













Here's all the kids - oops, Thomas must be getting more sausages off the barbeque....












And here's Daniel with Karen and Royston - relationships too hard to describe, but they're all our people now!

Oh, Lindsay, you signed on anonymously, so I can't get in touch properly! Looks like I'm collecting cousins today!
