make for a happy life! We’ve been out and about having fun in the sun!
During the holidays, i packed up a picnic and we went to Maroochydore beach (but not before going to the library first!). The boys played for hours and not once did I hear, can we go home yet?? I managed to read a whole book, something I’ve not done for a very long time!
we haven’t been to Maroochydore Beach for I honestly don’t know how many years, have promised myself we shall return!
The following day we decided to head up the range to Gardiner’s Falls, I’d never been there, so it was a bit of an adventure! Would have been better had I not had an allergy to something in flower, I spent the 2 hours we were there, sneezing my head off..needless to say, we did have a good time though. There is something strangely weird about taking photo’s of your children jumping off a small cliff sort of rock into a deep body of water..Aaryn was very nervous at first, but after the first jump, I couldn’t keep him grounded. He had a ball! Naturally, Cam, the adventurous, having been there before, had a great time ordering everyone around showing us the correct way to jump etc. Aaryn found a rope swing and was in his element as he’s part monkey, he climbed that tree and tarzan swung into the water..
When we were walking to the falls, Cam screamed out Snake…i thought he was joking until i saw the look on his face. He was then mortified when i put my bag down, got out the camera and took a photo..after taking the photo, I realized the snake was indeed a Red Bellied Black..so, hightailed it out of there!
I did inform some Pakistani tourists, to be careful with their small children as there were snakes on the track (we saw 2 in all). After finally managing to get through to him that yes, they were real snakes..it was hilarious to see him tie towels around his legs, just incase the snake decided to bite him! He didn’t show the same concern for his pregnant wife and small children…How I wish I’d taken photo’s of him!
Sunday saw us spending the day helping… supervising watching Gary and Jason, as they used the Cherry picker to clean the Private hospital at Kawana Lake. I was wondering what to do with the boys for the whole day, but as luck would have it, one empty car park, 2 scooters, and one lake not 1 minute walk other end of carpark away, led to a fun filled day and lots of photo’s. There was a regatta on the Lake,so we went down and watched that for a while, then the boys got hot, stripped off and went in for a swim for a while. I was exhausted when we got home!
the boys wanted me to take photo’s for ‘their portfolio’ who knew they even had one..apparently they would like to be male models..please keep your eye out for the new calendar Aaryn will be mr July!!! LOL they look more like an ad for norsca deodorant LOL..had to laugh at the splash one..Aaryn told Cam to slowly splash to get a ‘sexy’ scene, i tee’d it up with Cam that when i nod, he splash totally..Aaryn was NOT amused LOL. Cam gets too self conscious..so only a couple of pics of him!
