Rhode Island #2

Last weekend we ventured back to Rhode Island to visit Jeff, Zenna and Christopher. We had a fantastic time hanging out.........














......enjoying the scenic views and having some drinks.....















.....maybe a few too many drinks.....















.......and eating as many freshly shucked oysters......



















.......and lobster as possible.........



















........decadence people.......... decadence!

Scotty G & Brooke

Late last week our favorite Kiwi's were in town! Scotty G and gorgeous wife Brooke paid us a visit during their 6 week USA extravaganza.

We headed to Southern Hospitality, where the fabulous southern food is served in a welcoming NYC setting. It is co-owned by Justin Timberlake who is not just dedicated to bringing sexy back but also baby back ribs & deep friend chicken!














Scotty G almost cried himself a river over the collard greens & ham hocks y'all!

Baby Gabby!

Last week Jay and Erica were in town with Baby Gabby. It was the first time we had seen her, she is as cute as hell and very cuddly!

Yummy mummy and bubb...














David was in heaven, I was worried he would not give her back!














Have you seen 2 more attractive brunette's? I think not.

Christmas in July

Last weekend David and I hosted Christmas in July.

Back in Australia, we sometimes celebrated Christmas during July when it was cold, because my Dad was English. Seeing it is the middle of Summer and really feels like christmas weather to us, I thought a similar celebration might be in order.....hence Christmas in July.

Plus it was a good opportunity to catch-up with our favorite Aussie everyone before the summer was over and the cold set in.......again.















Of course it was also a reason for a round of Sonia's famous sausage rolls and Ruth's marshmallow balls :)















We had a traditional hot lunch.......



















..........happily sweated as our beer/champagne got warm............















......................and were all in need of an afternoon nap once the meal was over!
