Welcome To Gateauland

Yes, I spent most of the weekend in Gateauland, that far away place full of toddlers.

It's been a while since I visited with Gateau and his family, so with the recent arrival of baby Grace, it was time to go visit.

For those new to the legacy of Gateau, I've known him for around 20 years, was his lodger for a few weeks that turned into months and was the best man at his wedding. He is also known as Mike (and various other names that are not really suitable for a family oriented blog such as this).

He and wife Lianna now have three kids (all under three years old - I think someone should have a little chat with them!), so I got to go visit with them all this weekend.

In the picture below, Gateau is mowing the lawn with Robbie (the eldest) joining in and Laura (the middle kid) tagging along.


Holy crap, dealing with three kids of that age is more than a full time job - I feel for Lianna, as basically she has four kids to deal with.

We all went to the mall, which turns out to be a logistical exercise a crack troop of Marines would be proud of accomplishing. Then in the evening, we went to dinner at a local Mexican restaurant, where Gateau and I posed (along with Robbie) for a typical Gateau/Tim photo.


It's good to know some things never change.
