Last week my uncle Michael passed away after a battle with cancer, and we attended his funeral on Tuesday. If I was asked to describe him in a single phrase, I would choose “big hearted”. Michael was a kind, well-read and thoughtful man who passionately loved life and made friends wherever he went (evidenced by the packed funeral service and wake). His passing will leave a hole in our lives, but more so those of his wife, three children, mother and six siblings. Bye big fella - I’ll think of you whenever I open a bottle of shiraz.

Spooky Hugo just celebrated his first Halloween, shortly after his 1/4 birthday:

Hugo is about to celebrate his 2 month birthday on Thursday. He is growing well and is smiling all the time now, though this is pretty difficult to catch on camera because he tends to get distracted. Even when he isn’t smiling, he is very cute:

Well done sis! I know you put in a lot of effort and it is wonderful to see it pay off. Don’t stop your study, you will need it more than before now.
