WOW! What a Day!

 We had a fantastic time today at the Let's Get Stitched Stitching Day. But I'll tell you all about that in another post.
A less dramatic day at the river.
While I was having fun with the girls, Noel took the boys back to their favourite swimming place at Warrandyte. There Mitchell, together with his mate Dale, helped save a man who was struggling in the river and in quite a bit of trouble. 

Mitchell got to him first and the man, in his panic, pulled Mitchell down but Mitchell was able to get up and then he and Dale got the man to shallow water. Apparently they got quite an applause when they got back to the edge.

Well done Mitchell and Dale. 
 We are very proud of your bravery.
