A bit of fun

In fact we had a lot of fun on Australia Day.  For breakfast we joined our church's ward in it's annual Australia Day breakfast at the park.  There was lots of food to eat, cricket played and lots of climbing,

flags flying,

kids spinning,

photo's being taken,

sliding,

and pirate ship sailing.  

I really enjoyed the morning, apart from the tears when two of my boys whacked their heads on the same bar over the slippery slide, but I actually managed to have some adult conversation with some of the lovely ladies from church.  I felt rejuvenated so when we got home I made some damper for lunch with butter and golden syrup, rather scrumptious.

 

For family home evening we played some charades.  Toby is getting better and more hilarious when he plays.  Under Donald's guidance Toby came out with his fingers snipping like scissors, the concentration on his face was priceless and his little snipping fingers were just beautiful.  Unfortunately I didn't get a photo, but the next pics are of Toby being a seed growing into a sun flower, a rather jumpy sunflower.
