The Leyden-Daymond Clan Blog

An Introduction…

G’day! Welcome to our blog :) We have created this as a way to stay in touch with family and friends throughout the world…. but who are we?

Well, first there is Halim… aka ‘Daddy’ - he loves his computer games, 80’s music and kids - and especially all things aviation. He gets to play with planes most days as an Air Traffic Controller.

Then there is Christine… aka ‘Mummy’ - she LOVES cooking, cookbooks, googling, watching Dr Phil and doing things with the kids. She is currently at home but also works as a Public Servant.

Next there is Christian - he LOVES his lego, science, soccer, playstation and DVDs… not such a big fan of school though ;P

Not far behind is Jocelyn… aka ‘Jocie’ - she is the chatterbox of the family… and has a ‘vivid’ imagination, making for some lengthy and colourful conversations… and she certainly doesn’t mince words!

Last but certainly not least is Ember-Lyn… aka ‘Emmie’ - the youngest… although you would not believe it if you have ever met her :) She loves her food, a cuddle and to be in arms reach of Eeyore.

Oh! Not to forget - Jessie, our puppy dog (see photo posted below). She is a Miniature Australian Bulldog and is not with us ‘yet’ as she lives in Victoria with her Mum. She turns 8 weeks old near Halim’s birthday (20th July 2009) so not too much longer before she comes home.

We have a chronic case of art fever in this household… many get ‘re-homed’ others unfortunately visit ‘the rubbish fairy’… mmm… so we are taking to cataloguing their art so in some ways it can live on forever….
