School bush dance

Tonight, we helped out with a local Christian school with their year 6 graduation celebration. Many of our church parents send their children there. So our church music team help to provide live music to the event. The theme is Bush Dance. As for us, Eric (& I) help them with the audio sound equipment.

Overall, it went well, but it started very chaotic, as the IT personnel from the school did not leave the keys to the rooms, leave relevant equipment which he has promised to do. So it was a mad panic. Glad that God was watching over the whole event, and our saviour was a high school student from the same school, who knew the insides out of the school audio system. And he knew where to get the keys too! Without him, I think everything won't go according to plan. And in the rehearsal, I also realised some parent was plugging their computer into the system to play a PowerPoint. The IT guy did not mentioned anything regarding the using the projector in the event. So it came as a big surprise for us. 

Here's our 'home' for the 6-7 hours, sitting behind the sound desk. 

Here's the music crew from our church (minus the lady in the middle of the stage).

The set up of the dinning space in the hall. 

The finale dance. 

The dances involves the whole family. 

Good night!

Hello hello!

Hi everyone! 

Sorry for the MIA for the past weeks. Since Tomato's health check, we drove up all the way from Sydney to Brisbane, and back to Sydney again! Total of 2087 km over 5 days. 

Since then, praise God that we had been good busy with the patients and working around the long standing house renovation. (Explaining the MIA)

I'll try to post more updates on our road trip very soon! So stay tune!!

Here's some snippets of what we were up to in our road trip. =)

Pack pack pack!

Tomato's health check day

My trusty Tomato has his health check at the workshop the other day. We drove to Eric's sister's workplace. 

Here's Tomato on the hoist, ready to get lifted.

Tada! This is the first time I see the underside of Tomato. 

First, Tomato was drained off the old engine oil. Look at how black that is!! *shocked* 

Later on the new engine oil is poured in and it was Golden in colour!! 

Shows that the car had done quite a bit of driving and there are impurities which stains the oil black.

An oil filter was changed too. 

Tomato relaxing up there on the hoist.

Next, they look into the engine section. They pulled out the air filter and it's shockingly black!! During my three years in Canberra, never did I need to change them, as Canberra was less polluted. And this filter was only changed in March this year. Oh my oh my. 

They looked at my car battery and asked when was the last time I changed the battery. Nope I did not. My dear Tomato still has the original manufacture battery!! A normal battery last normally 5 years, while my Tomato is already 8 yo! Even though the battery was still going ok, they did a test and found that it had gradually loss it's charge. So we have it replaced too.

Next, they took off Tomato's shoes and tighten the hand break. They also found the front tyres had finally worn off to the thread line. So we had two of the tyres changed too. Now the driving is much smoother and it does not screech when turning in shopping centres car park. =)

After doing all that, Tomato gets a bubble bath too!

See! Looking nice and clean. 

Now Tomato is all ready for its long drive to Brisbane coming weekend. =) 

And I'm $340 poorer after the health check. >_<

Sky message

On my way back from clinic, I saw a plane writing message in the sky. So I stopped at the side of the road to take a pic. Let's see if you know what they want to say? =D

It started with MA.

Then, MARP.

Driving further, it's MARRY.

MARRY (who?)

And finally when I hit home, the aircraft had finally finished the message. 

MARRY ME

(So sweet!!)

By then the wind had blowned the first few letters apart. 

Aww, wonder who's the lucky lady? 

Did she say yes?! 

Is anyone out there keen to share their husband's proposal? =)

My Eric did not do this kind of romantic thing. Lol. Though he proposed infront of the fireplace where we rented as housemates in Canberra. =) 

Have a good Sunday everyone!
