Possums, synchronised couch play and mandos!

At lunchtime today we were sitting down to eat when we heard quite a ruckus coming from the garage. My brave Dave decided to take a peek and after much investigation (another ruckus) he discovered the culprit was this rather voluptuous beady-eyed possum...

Now to lure him out of our ceiling and convince him to make his home somewhere else !

...and some humour from those who are welcome in our home:

the latest tryouts for the 2012 Olympic games... synchronised couch play! (and no, seriously I didn't set this up - just happened to have the camera ready at the right time)
Other things we did on the weekend...Juiced up some fruit before Daddy and Josh brought the next load home from the markets!

David pruned a few branches to stop the nasty bird deposits from landing on my washing - that's my hero! Oh and here he is stopping to pose for his wife - as you do when you are in the middle of landing a huge branch on the ground!
David and Josh picked a big bowl of delicious mandarines from our lil'
tree out back - I do get so excited when even I (a very dodgy gardener) can
see some home grown fruit grace our table.... but they didn't last on our table very
long, I can assure you... fruit bats that we are!
Thank you Lord for little pleasures, blessings and fun moments!
Oh, and for answered prayers!
Andy - mentioned in previous post is doing much better (still has some radiation treatment to endure but worst seems over for now) and she and her fiance are now married - were married in the hospital on Saturday. I have been encouraged by their dedication to each other and sacrificial desire to be be there 'in sickness and in health'... They certainly had to start practicing this so early in their life together. May God's abundant Grace be felt by them both!
