Simon’s 2008 Movie Top 5

With all these babies, and moving to Queensland, 2008 was definitely the year I saw the least amount of movies in many years.

I could write a huge list of movies that came out in 2008 that I still want to see, they’ll be lots of DVD renting going on this year

So in saying that this is my slightly warped top 5 list of movies I did manage to see.

nocountrydvd_1705. No Country For Old Men

Thought this was a great film from the Coen Brothers, Javier Bardem was excellent and I had a bit of a freak-out moment when I realised Josh Brolin was one of the kids from The Goonies.

Who Are Ya

helloJust a reminder if your a regular visitor to the site, or even if this is your first time, take a look at the Google Friend Connect widget in the right sidebar.

Take a minute to sign-in so that we know who’s stopping by. Think of it as a guest book.

At the moment we only have two people (not including Val and I), and I know there’s alot more than that visiting the site every day.

The Talented Mrs Doyle

My amazingly talented Aunty Lynn sent us this beautiful painting for Christmas.

It’s a picture of Ella and me entitled “Paddling With Daddy”

I thought I’d show it off here. It is now proudly hanging on our living room wall. You can see a few more of her paintings here including the full size picture version of Paddling With Daddy.

Thanks again Lynn, it was the best present ever.

Merry Christmas

Boxing Day at the Mcaulys

Boxing Day at the Mcauleys

We’ve been having a lovely Christmas, mostly taking it easy with our newest family member.

Great to have Mum and Carlton here, as its making everything a lot easier while we get used to being a four member family.

We dropped in at the Mcauleys earlier this afternoon. They got the Nintendo Wii and the game Rockband for Christmas, so we all had a bit of a laugh pretending to be rock stars. It was a lot of fun.

New pictures up on flickr of Mums visit so far.
