Anzac Day 2017

Today is ANZAC Day. A day we all remember a dark day in our history when two fledgling nations were tested and 

Although lost a battle forged their identities 

These two nations australia and New Zealand are forever connected by these bonds of mateship and endurance 

For us today we reflect on what this means and say thank you to all those that have served and are serving to preserve our freedoms 

 

Today I'll watch the services on television and this afternoon we will watch the traditional Anzac Day class between my footy team and Essendon 

And I'll continue doing what I always do 

I've started a skirt for Melody. I don't have a pattern. I'm going to wing it and see how it goes I've started it with a pattern edge and I'll continue in just plain until it's done 

The grey cardigan was just a tad short. She is going to be tall like her dad we think. So I undid it and added another repeat of the pattern edge 

 

The weather is rainy and bleak today. So lamb shanks are in the slow cooker 

It's wonderful living the simple life. A choice we made many years ago

And now that  we are getting older. Although our bodies are not as strong as they once were. 

We are greatful for what we can do. 

Have a lovely day where ever you are 

Lest we forget!
