Our Adventures Down Under. Sunday, January 16, 2011. Koalas, Kangaroos, Wallabies, and Wombats. One rainy, but hot and humid, day we ventured out west to Featherdale Wildlife Park. We had a great day getting up close and personal with some of Australia's favorite furry friends! The kids absolutely loved it! Braden and Carson posing for a picture.it is almost next to impossible to get a "normal" picture these days! Petting a wallaby.Davis wasn't so sure yet! Davis was a bit more brave with this one.

The Helmer Family: June 2011
http://blog.helmerfamily.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Our Adventures Down Under. Thursday, June 16, 2011. I love riding the ferry from Manly to Circular Quay.it never gets old. There is just something about the Opera House that is amazing. It is iconic and majestic. I never get tired of seeing it. Lucy, Curly, and Mo. Puppy-sitting, again. We fell in love with these Spoodles over the 3-day weekend. And what trip to the city wouldn't be complete without a tantrum on the ferry from Carson! We usually go through this. And sometimes get a few of these. After I ...

The Helmer Family: February 2011
http://blog.helmerfamily.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Our Adventures Down Under. Sunday, February 13, 2011. Braden has loved snorkeling around the beaches, which has peaked his interest in scuba diving. However, he is not quite old enough to get certified, something he reminds of his irritation often! I did some researching and found out that at the Sydney Olympic Aquatic Center they offer a try-a-dive for kids ages 8-12. So we decided to give it a try! This post has a ton of pictures! They are begging for surfboards! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 1st dance c...

The Helmer Family: Cemetery
http://blog.helmerfamily.com/2011/11/cemetery.html
Our Adventures Down Under. Wednesday, November 30, 2011. Did you know we live across the street from a city cemetery? It is a very old cemetery, with dates back to the 1800's. My kids love to play in the cemetery. They look for lizards and bugs, they play Hide-n-Seek, and Tip (how the Aussie's say Tag). It's a bit creepy to me, but they sure have fun!

The Helmer Family: Swimming
http://blog.helmerfamily.com/2011/11/swimming.html
Our Adventures Down Under. Monday, November 28, 2011. The Aussie's are serious about swimming. You pretty much have to enroll your child in swim school before they are even born. But, after about a year on the waiting list, Davis finally was awarded a spot! So with his speedo, goggles and a cap he wouldn't wear, he was ready to go! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Helmer Family: Rock Climbing
http://blog.helmerfamily.com/2011/11/rock-climbing.html
Our Adventures Down Under. Wednesday, November 30, 2011. While I was getting a massage back at the hotel, Garrett and the kids went rock climbing in Melbourne. The kids loved it and had absolutely no fear. They all had sore arms the next day, though! Avery climbed to the top of this wall about 4 times. She was amazing! Braden was a super belayer!

The Helmer Family: Happy Thanksgiving
http://blog.helmerfamily.com/2011/11/happy-thanksgiving.html
Our Adventures Down Under. Wednesday, November 30, 2011. Thanksgiving was spent on a 14 hour train ride from Sydney to Melbourne. Garrett was working in Melbourne during the week, so the kids and I headed down to meet him for a long weekend and, of course, another Rubiks Cube Competition. I had been saving this $12 can of pumpkin I found last year at an import store for this special occasion. But, I figured pumpkin pie on the train wouldn't be the easiest endeavor. So we made Pumpkin Whoopie pies instead!

The Helmer Family: December 2010
http://blog.helmerfamily.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Our Adventures Down Under. Friday, December 17, 2010. After patiently, well maybe not so patiently, waiting, our container that left Temecula 8 weeks ago finally arrived! Everything made it safely across the Pacific in one piece with no major damage (well except a few Christmas decorations)! We were so happy to have a few of our things that make us feel a bit more at home! Now, where in the world are we going to put all of it? This is a small storage shed that we were thinking we could put the bikes and ...
