Highlights of our first night had to be taking turns sitting on the sofa chair doing sentry duty during a stretch of frequent getting up by Lukey. The funniest part was he got past me the first time (This sentry was snoring his head off!) and the second time he was sooo quiet and it was so dark I didn't spot him till he was about 2 ft in front of me!
Everyone was so happy waking up. Zachy seeing the bright blue sky was priceless. He loved being in the garden this morning with Mummy!
Lukey and Daddy jumped in the 4x4 and went on an adventure to the shops. We both loved even such a mundane task; sunny day, different cars & streets so Lukey was excited!
Triple J were counting down the hottest 100 so Daddy enjoyed that, and Lukey always loves a bit of loud music in the car: all good! Forgot they can swear, so I was pleased Lukey didn't pick up any words from the Kings of Leon Creole sketch which talked about macaroons being as dry as Kangaroo s**t. Pretty funny.
Then the family all arrived over. Was great to see them all and catch up. A very relaxed afternoon. The kids loved the pool and when everyone was all splashed out Uncle Lee & I hit the barby!
The volume of food was ridiculous! Prawn & pasta salads, 4 meats, bread city & sauces - what more do you need?!?!
Lee also brought a great Pale Ale called Fat Yak. Tasty.
After wolfing down some ice creams and getting beaten by J on MarioKart DS we headed off to the fireworks! Quite far out of the city but was so easy and handy; by the river and had a playpark and a good view. Plenty of people and atmosphere. Someone had a proper soundsystem and was playing out suitable choons to fit the mood and accompany the show! much fun was had by all. Sparklers, glowsticks, Aussie flags and tattoos ensured all the kids had fun!
Kids not in bed till almost 10!! Hope they sleep well tonight....I'm outta here....shattered......
