Meet the newest family member - Emilia Florence!

Soooo sweet and precious! Little Emilia made here entry into the World in the early morning hours of the same day as her cousin's wedding. September 7th, is a such special day for the whole Patrick clan! Another niece celebrated her 5th Wedding Anniversary, and the happy Wedding couple actually had their first date, on September 7th too! Below are proud parents of Emilia, Laura and Chris!

And below is proud Grandparents - my brother Pappa John and Nonna Joan! Such a blessing to be home for this special moment!


Tully is a small sugar mill town about 2 hours south of Cairns and we traveled here with a group of about 20 other residents to go white water rafting in the Tully River at the Gorge in the National Park. It is the beginning of the wet season and the river was running at a high level, so the rapids were class 4 out of 5. We had some trepidation, but were excited for the adventure! OMG so much FUN!!
