Plumbing

David's Cousin and his wife (newly weds) have come to stay with us for about a month so he can get some more work in the big smoke. They live remotely and are fixing up an old house, gardening etc. etc. in between a few plumbing jobs. We have managed to keep Uncle C busy with some plumbing jobs at our house for a while, then after a few other local jobs she will be flying down to Melbourne where they will meet up again and she will have their baby in a couple of

months.

The trench diggers hard at work. David dug a big trench along the fence line so we could replace some faulty/old pipes.

Aunty S getting plenty of practise before her little bundle arrives (this was actually taken a month or so ago when they popped in) so her bump is much more ripe now...

The view of the neighborhood is always quite different when you gain height:) David had Uncle C take some pictures when climbing up on our back patio roof:

Rosa and Owen enjoyed some new play equipment:

As for me, I have been enjoying some adult female company - lots of chats about giving birth, parenting, etc. etc. I have been spoilt having Aunty S around - I have recently been running around taking Joshua to his NAPLAN test to come home and find my washing done and folded and my dishes washed and kitchen clean (and I know it is a woman who has done the job because it is definitely done with detail and a woman's touch:) I have been spoilt.

I think that the greatest thing I have enjoyed/been challenged about, however in having Uncle C and Aunty S staying with us is their dedication and devotion to studying God's Word. Even plumbing jobs fit around midday worship. They guard their times of study and diligently study the Bible and it is precious to hear them singing songs of praise as I go about the house.
