In Brisbane for Ellie's Birthday Party





Therese, Josita and Sebina came home this week-end for Ellie's birthday, and for the party to celebrate Ellie's First Confession.

They started at the Indooroopilly Swimming Club where one of the members just broke an Australian Record - and will probably go to the next Olympics. The Coach Rob Cusack would love to go and help Tiwi swimming.

On Saturday we went to the Tennis at the University of Queensland - but it rained all day, and the fixture was washed out

On Sunday we started at mass and then Therese, Josita and Sebina helped with Ellie's party. They were a great hit with Ellie's friends - they did the face painting and ran the treasure hunt. Therese's face painting had no 23 for Collingwood's Anthony Rocca!
