Chinese New Year and Australia Day

Sally particularly enjoyed Chinese New Year this year since it coincided with Australia Day and she had the day off to enjoy it!!! We celebrated by going over to Sally's uncle's place for a yummy dinner with everyone on New Year's Eve. Thanks Aunty Jas and Susan for all the fantastic dishes, and the doggy bag!!!
We also made some dumplings, pork with lemongrass, Chinese cabbage and ginger.






The Governor of Victoria had an open day to celebrate the national day. It was good to see what our tax money was being used for. We met up with Mam, Dad, Stephen, Karen, Aidan, Emma and Brendan there. It was fantastic, with Aboriginal music, BBQ, fairy/puppet show, face painting.








There were heaps of other entertainment in the Botanical Gardens, an animal farm, rides, dog rac, and a vintage car parade!!
