I know it has been so long since I posted. I think when I know I have a big post to do I get overwhelmed and keep putting it off since its such a pain to upload pics. Well I think I finally figured out the easiest way to do it! Use Picasa...so easy. I wish I would have figured that out a long time ago. Get ready for a picture overload. At the beginning of July my wonderful mother-in-law came and got the Sydney experience! Unfortunately it was pretty cold while she was here so we tried our best to stay bundled up and still go out and see all the sights. Its so nice to have family visit and I think she really enjoyed being here.
We had a lot of fun shopping and visiting the outdoor markets.
Took a ferry ride...
Visited the Opera House...
Had a picnic at the Botanic Gardens...
Went to church...
(Jett always falls asleep on the way home)
Enjoyed some spectacular views...
Cuddled the koalas...(Susan's favorite part!)
(I love the look on Jett's face in this one)
Watched all the pretty butterflies at the Wildlife World...
Admired the amazing creatures at the Aquarium...
Walked around Todd's school...
Laughed at all the Asian tourists taking pictures of Jett...
Went to the world famous Bondi Beach on a freezing day (they had an ice rink set up right on the sand!)
Went on another ferry ride...
Saw even more animals at the Taronga Zoo...
Smiled at the cute little red pandas which are almost as cute as little Jett...
And enjoyed the last sunset from the comfort of our cozy little apartment. It was a great week filled with fun outings, awesome food, and most importantly...family! We are already getting excited to go home to the states and be closer to family. Less than 3 months left! Crazy!

Sounds like it was all so much fun and I'm sure she had a great time!!
But noooooooooooo don't move back! Stay here in Aussie Land just a little longer! :)
I am pretty much the worst blog-checker ever. Sounds like Todd is especially busy with school and work! I can't believe that Jett is 15 months already. He is SO handsome and getting so big! I have such a soft spot for little boys. :) I absolutely love that picture of you changing his diaper with him in a headstand. So funny! I know Grandma Holbrook had a fantastic time there with you guys. We heard all about it, and it sounded like so much fun in spite of the cold. We love you guys and miss you madly! We'll have to Skype SOON and catch up a bit. XOXO
