If you asked us two years ago if we’d ever think we’d be able to go to the football as a family our answer would have probably been no. Last night we ticked that box and it was an immensely proud moment for us as parents.

As most would know the footy can be bright, loud and extremely overwhelming (especially when Rio doesn’t like wearing headphones). We went to watch it last night with the hope we could watch one quarter, but to our delight we got to watch three quarters of the game. We even converted Mum from an Essendon supporter to a Collingwood supporter 😜

Rio continues to blow our minds with his progress and we are so proud of him 🤍

For months Rio has been asking to go to Movie World.
Yesterday we brought his dream to reality 😍

A huge shoutout to @movieworldaus who were incredible. Going to busy places can be extremely overwhelming for neurodivergent people but we’ve never felt more accommodated by an organisation. They allowed us to skip queues or book in a time for a ride so that we didn’t have to line up for hours.

For those of you like us, we presented our sunflower lanyard to the office at Movie World and they gave us a special wristband which allowed us the use of accessibility services to make ride experiences frictionless and we can’t recommend it enough.

🤍🎡🎢

We went quiet for a while.

Not because this didn’t matter but because everything at home needed us more. Last year was tough. As parents, as a family… it took a lot out of us.

So we took a step back. No noise, no pressure but just focusing on our families needs. Because at the end of the day, this isn’t just something we talk about, it’s something we live every single day.

If you’re a parent in this space you’ll get it. The highs are incredible but the weight can be heavy too.

That’s where we’re at - we’ll keep showing up, in our own way. 🤍🤍🤍 by @beyondtheboundaryau

Hi there 👋🏼

We’ve got lots of new faces here, so allow us to reintroduce ourselves. We are Dean & Stef and we co-founded Beyond the Boundary. We have two beautiful sons Roman & Rio and we understand first hand what life looks like as a parent with a child on the spectrum.

In a typically isolated world, our aim is to bring families together to enjoy the little things in life and if we can play a small part in changing one persons life then we consider our job done, but we won’t be stopping there! We have lots being planned in the background and are super excited to share with you all.

Thank you for joining us on this journey!
Our Vision, Your Path.
💙

CHEATS HOT CROSS BUNS 🐰

A hot cross bun hack for those that are time poor but still want to bake some goodies for Easter!

A calorie friendly version that has a decent hit of protein - zero complaints from me!

INGREDIENTS:
2.5 cups self raising flour
2 cups Greek yogurt
1tsp nutmeg
1tsp cinnamon
1tsp all spice
Rind of 1 orange
1 tsp vanilla essence
1/2 cup of sugar replacement

Flour paste for cross:
Flour and water- enough that it’s thick but runny

METHOD:
Add all ingredients to a bowl and combine well.
Flour your bench and add dough and mix and form a ball, adding more flour until it’s workable and not sticky.

Form balls and add to a lined baking tray.
Glaze with milk.
Mix paste and pipe crosses over rolls.

Place in a preheated oven on 160°C for 25 minutes.

Makes 10 buns.

It’s not an exact carbon copy but it has the same feel and is a delicious sweet roll at the very least!

World Autism Day 🩵

Dear Rio,
You’ve taught us everything we need to know about the world. You’ve taught us patience, adversity, persistence but most importantly you’ve taught us love and empathy! You’ve showed us that no matter how hard life can seem all you really need is love! You’ve made us better parents, Roman a better brother and you light up every room you walk into.

We are so proud to be your parents and we will embrace your differences and challenges every minute of every day! We love you so much, thank you for being you!

Six weeks ago Rio wouldn’t hold a pencil. Fast forward to today and he can write his name. We’re so proud of him, he has come leaps and bounds since starting school.

It may seem like such a small milestone for some but this a huge milestone for Ri 🩵

Part Two: Pit Lane Experience 🏎️

We were lucky enough to have a pit lane experience with other like minded organisations and participants. In a life that can be difficult to navigate it was so nice to see so many smiling faces!

We will be forever grateful for the opportunity to share this experience @whatability @whatabilityfoundation

Also super appreciate for all the teams who were so welcoming to help spread some love 🫶🏼
