Jack's Mates Team

 Jack and some school mates formed a basketball team.  They were concerned about having enough players but all of the invitees joined, so they now have 9 in the team and plenty of rotations! They played a tall skillful team yesterday but all the boys enjoy the challenge.

Cooper Basketball

 It is Cooper's first season for some time so he feels a little rusty but his coach is happy with his progress and he is good in defence.  They missed a win but played well yesterday.

Back In the Game

 Jack has had a couple of weeks off (illness, avoiding Covid and wedding) so he was back in action last night.  Unfortunately they were up against a very skilled team so there was no resting on the sidelines.  It was a real workout.  The boys did well but were not quite up to it.

Honeymoon

 Early Monday morning Lisa and Mark departed for their Queensland honeymoon accompanied by Jason who was heading home.

While away, Granny was Chief Nutritionist at Ringwood.
The nutrition plan incorporated all the food groups.
Apparently Lisa and Mark felt the same way.
The only problem they face while away is keeping out of the sun.
While away they kept the health food shops busy.

Lisa and Mark's Wedding (The Official Photos)

Kellie was the Photographer and these are some of her photos.

Lisa and Mark's Wedding

 The wedding had been planned for quite a while but the intervention of Covid had forced a couple of delays so there was some apprehension that all would go well on the third attempt.  It did!  Mark and the boys dressed at their house and Lisa dressed with us.  (The "real" photos are yet to come so here are some snippets.)

Lisa was never one to stick with convention so she drove us to the wedding to find the boys ready to escort her into the chapel.
It was a great venue for all the friends and family to gather for the ceremony.
Then some pre-dinner drinks in some wonderful evening light before the reception.
Everyone came ready to enjoy the occasion with good will, good food, good wine and a great band.
