This is the first of my #project365 photos with me in it! 
This photo was taken on the 11th of January, I have just been a little bust and pre-occupied over the past couple of days with the current flooding here in Brisbane, as well as Central Queensland and through Queensland’s Outback.
So, this photo is Jackson and I playing the wii. The game is Rugby League 3 and Jackson LOVES it… He’s getting better at the game too but he HATES being beaten… and i REFUSE to let the Raiders get beaten, so games where I’m the Raiders are very difficult balancing game between me not wanting the Raiders to lose and Jackson’s frustration.
The game was Jackson and Kylie’s present to me for Christmas… It’s a great Christmas presie!
I am shocking with change…. I hate carrying around any change in my pocket and that normally means I dump all the change, at the end of everyday on the counter in the kitchen. From there it gets transferred to the piggy bank and then from there to the secret hiding spot and never seen again. Poor plan huh!
Andrew Sinclair introduced me to this beautiful machine. It’s a coin counter! You take all your loose change in, tip it into a tray and the machine starts sorting the change and counts it for you. After counting the change, you’re issued with a receipt that you take to the teller. The teller then can deposit the funds into your NAB account, or, cash you out and provide you with the funds in notes
OK, that’s the cool part. The not-so-cool part is that if you are not an NAB customer, the service charge to use this service is 10% of the value of the transaction.
I’m not aware of it in any other banks, but would be great to know if they’re out there.
Love the machine NAB, I’ll be using it a lot.
My nephew’s name is Harry and he’s three years old, turning four in April.
Harry’s got a great cranky face which he pulls nearly on command.
This photo was taken at Mum & Dad’s on Friday night, after Jackson and Harry had spent the day there. Apparently the highlights of the day were seeing the movie “Tangled”, swimming in the pool, watching tele at home and running around chasing each other.
Hi Harry!
The Brisbane International is a tennis tournament played annually in Brisbane. It’s an ATP World Tour event and brings some pretty big tennis names to Brisbane. In the mens draw Andy Roddick and Robin Soderling lead the way and in the womens side of the draw Nadia Petrova and Sam Stosser are the main drawcards.
The venue is fantastic, with the main court covered and close by to a train station. Further information on the Queensland Tennis Centre, which is where the tournament is, have a look at http://www.queenslandtenniscentre.com.au/

Today’s photo is not one of me directly, but rather something about my beautiful State. Areas of Queensland are experiencing terrible flooding currently & I thought today I’d post a photo of the web page which has information about how to donate to the premier’s flood appeal.

This gekko found its way into Kylie’s handbag this morning.
I am not sure whether he was looking to be turned into a pair of shoes or wanted to go to work with Kylie. Neither happened, I fished him out and put him outside.
This is my January 3rd entry for the #365project where I am taking a photo a day for 365 days.
This is a photo of New Orleans Saints Quarterback Drew Brees and it was taken during the broadcast of the Tampa Bay vs New Orleans match on Fox Sports. it was taken from my couch, it’s not a live photo. 
During the NFL season I get up at around 3am each Monday and watch the game on the web or on Foxtel if they are broadcasting a match. Mostly I like watching the games because I enjoy playing fantasy football.
These early morning wake ups are why I usually need a redbull around 230pm on a Monday afternoon.
Photo Taken: 25th June, 2009
Photo Location: Hamilton Island, Queensland
This photo was taken at qualia, on Hamilton Island.
I love this shot because it captures a wonderful moment and a beautiful scene. The gum, with the sun setting in the background, with the waters of the Whitsundays behind it and the plunge pool in the foreground.
And soon enough we’ll be back there

Photo Taken: 27th December 2009
Photo Location: Palazzo, Las Vegas
From our room in the Palazzo we could see out towards the Mountains in the distance and had a view of the Mirage, Treasure Island (including the Pirate ships in the front of the Treasure Island) and the Fashion Mall.
On the 27th we had in-room dining for breakfast and took in the view. A cracking big breakfast with a beautiful view of the Strip.

Photo Location: Outback Northern Territory somewhere…
In September 2009 I went to Darwin & then toured out to Arnhem Land. This photo, with the road stretching off into the distance and seemingly never, never ending was taken somewhere on that tour…
