This is our place for two nights! Lovely spot at Hawley beach..

Our daughter rang when we got here to say she’d had her 1st car accident and written off the car! Tears where flowing as shock set in..

We left the 3 younger kids with their aunty & younger kids and traveled back to Launceston to meet Nicola in the hospital – another hour in the car..

We picked up nik went to the car yard to check out the car and took Nikki to her grandmothers and finally headed back here to ‘really’ start our 2 day break!

Today started with news that a friend had lost her husband yesterday, just 4 months after she lost her son (we have been thinking about Lisa and her kids all day!). Then Nikki’s accident and all the driving, well we really just need some peace..

This place looks super peaceful! Fingers crossed we have no more unexpected and unwanted events/news for a couple of days!

I still haven’t recovered from 2 days of gingerbread house constructing, however all the hard work has been worth it!

The kids have not stopped smiling, even the ones who’s roofs caved in are smiling – mind you even a generous sprinkle of icing sugar didn’t hide what appeared to be the result of a major earthquake!

It certainly feels like Christmas around here with lots of gingerbread and lollies! The run to Christmas has started in the frost household and I don’t think anything could stop it now
