There is nothing like family

So it has been a while since I've typed up my last blog. Things here have been busy. My family came over for Passover. It was fantastic.
First parents came over with Jonny. They all played with Kayla and let Robyn and me relax for a bit. Later my siblings came and we had a grand time. The Seder at my place went well as did the one in the shul on the second day. Afterward we went to the Koala sanctuary and pet some kangaroos and koalas. Next was Surfer's Paradise and hitting the beach. We had a great time. I drove this minibus to get everyone around. It was really something else to see me drive this massive bus on the 'wrong' side of the road. Mom kept talking to the passenger thinking he was driving. It's nice just being around family. They enjoyed seeing Kayla grow up.
When we went to Sydney, we explored the city, climbed the bridge and saw a show at the opera house. Then back in Brisbane, we chilled and saw Thor.
While we did a lot, having the family there as just great. Michelle flew in for only a few days. It meant a lot to me that she made this much effort to see Robyn, Kayla and I. Elliot and I had a great walk by the river and discussed life like we usually do. Ariel and Jonny added their own touch to the holiday and we loved every minute of it.
Spending time with the family like this reminds me why I could never live that far from family. They enrich my life. I love them and was really glad they came to visit.
