A Day Out: GOMA

In December we went to the most recent exhibition at GOMA in Brisbane, and it was so much fun!!

We lined up for about 20 minutes to stand in this room for 30 seconds! We are standing on a platform which is surrounded by water. 

A cube full of lights and mirrors!

In its previous life, this piano belonged to my friend Kay, who had recently decided to pass it on. I'd originally been a bit sad that they'd covered a piano with stickers for the purpose of the exhibition, but when I found out it was Kay's old piano, I thought it was kind of cool it got a new lease of life in that way!

I'm so thankful for days out with my family!  Whether at an art exhibition, getting ice cream, or going for a scenic drive, being in each other's presence reminds me of how important family is.

A Day Out: Daisy Hill Koala Centre

On Father's Day we took a picnic lunch to the Daisy Hill Koala Centre which is just 10 minutes from our place.  We saw a wallaby in the bushes and a few koalas in the centre, walked around the picnic ground, and did some slack lining.  It was such a fun, relaxing day!

A Day Out: Gold Coast

Winter in Queensland looks like this!  Perfect days for weekend outings and beach trips.  I am so happy to share this place with my family!

Playing with Lego

Last month I visited my family in South Australia.  It was an amazing time!!

A highlight was building a perfectly symmetrical, colour-coordinated lego house with my youngest brother.  He is the BEST person to build lego with, because we both have a tendency to be rather particular about symmetry and colour-coordination ;)

The photos took after we completed our project are... well... you can insert the adjective here ;)

Love you bro!!
