Day Trip

The girls and I boarded the Australind today and headed on the 2hour journey south to Bunbury for a bit of shopping. We all had a great time and have come home very tired. The train was packed being school holidays with 131 seats taken on the way down and all 134 seats taken on the journey home. As you can see by the photos the weather was sunny going down but the trip home was overcast. I was hoping for some rain as it would have been nice splashing on the windows.

Happy Father's Day 2012

Sunday in Pictures

We've been enjoying the beautiful sunshine today and each others company. Hope you've all had a lovely Sunday too.

Mother's Day 2012

 Yesterday was a much quieter MD than usual with Phil, Brendan and Ruby all away. The girls woke me up with presents and cards and pictures!  Then Kate made me breakfast. It's nice when they get to an age where they can make me a meal!

 Kate, Ella and I met up with Amie and Jonah at Sizzler for lunch. It was really busy but we managed to get a table pretty quickly. The weather was cool and wet, so after lunch we went to Amie's house for awhile. I hardly took any photos, I'm a bit disappointed now I didn't take more - especially of each Mum with their kids!

These are all I took, and they were taken at Sizzler!

Ella always choose healthy food

Kate chooses more junky food!

I hope all Mums out there had a lovely day yesterday!

Mary Poppins

On Thursday night, the girls and I headed to see the musical Mary Poppins which was playing at the Burswood Theatre! It was Kate & Ella's favourite movie when they were small, and they still love it now.

Mary Poppins was amazing! We are huge fans of Disney and loved seeing it live on stage! The sets were amazing, the actors were absolutely fabulous, the costumes just fitting! And at the very end Mary Poppins flew right over our heads! Unreal!

The girls got a few treats from the store!

Kate studies the program!

Kings Park

You can't go past Kings Park for a place to take visitors. There is so much to see and do amongst the beautiful gardens and walkways. Playgrounds for the kids, picnic areas, many walks and cycle paths and cafes and restaurants with spectacular views across to the city and Swan river.

We had a lovely few hours out this afternoon in the glorious sunshine and a pleasant 25 deg!
I hope you all had a lovely Good Friday too, whatever you did!
