Where has the year gone? Since moving to our new home in January 2008 we have a year of head down Monday through Friday and then Saturdays and Sundays spent mowing, unpacking, settling in, furniture shopping (we had a few months of newspaper stuck together in the measurements of potential furniture purchases – Team Kealey [...]

The life and times of Team Kealey
Team Kealey is on the move!
Posted in January 2nd, 2008
For those that we haven’t been seeing regularly for the last month or so, feel privileged that you haven’t been swept up in operation “migrate”. For those few lucky people, you have been spared from us talking incessantly about our new.
So, from experience we can now strongly recommend against trying to move over Christmas/New Years [...]

Translation …. Hello! Only thirteen weeks to go !! To South America that is …..
We started Spanish lessons at Ithica TAFE 6 weeks ago and are starting to get the basics – how to say our name, numbers, days of the weeks, months, how to say the time, etc. The most confusing part is something [...]
Autumn is here – what happened to Summer?
Posted in March 27th, 2007
It’s been some time since we’ve provided an update on what’s been happening in the Kealey household. Where to begin … the last 2 months have been an absolute whirlwind and our feet are just skimming the ground. The biggest news is of course is Brian started his new job on 1st February which saw [...]

Well, not exactly like Willie meant it, but we have finally taken delivery of our new car. We were looking at upgrading our WRX to a new Liberty GT Spec.B for the extra creature comforts of SatNav, electric seats, full climate control, leather and more importantly, one less pedal to deal with in traffic. As [...]

The Kealey’s celebrated Christmas in Melbourne this year. Our trip started at 2 am on Friday 22nd December. Our flight from Brisbane was at 5 am – well we never thought it would be possible to suffer from jet lag for interstate travel but after 1 hours sleep for Brian and 2 hours sleep for [...]

On Sunday we said farewell to some of our Melbourne family who stayed with us for a week and bit – the wonderful Uncle Maurice & Aunty Judy. Their visit to our humble abode allowed us to venture out for some new dining experiences, much needed catch up with the Hartley/Simpson/Kealey families and lots of laughs, hugs, [...]

What a great weekend we’ve just had. Our dear friends Neale and Narelle wanted to celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary (Congratulations guys!) and thought we were worthy candidates to be the primary carers of their two precious bundles for 47 hours (give or take – not that we were counting).
So our weekend began when [...]

On 23rd September we celebrated our good friend Brad’s 30th Birthday the only way we knew how – a party at the Kealey’s !!!!!!!!
A great night was had by all the guests and especially the birthday boy. His only requests for the night were lollies, balloons, cake, girls – just the usual. Well many pitched [...]
Time for catching up with our Auckland friends
Posted in July 15th, 2006
Today we’ve managed to spend some time with some very wonderful people.
This afternoon we had coffee with Scott (who use to share an office with Brian at WebCentral). While the boys had a “what’s been happening back home at work” conversation and great catch-up (with a big congrats to Scott who is still continuing to [...]
