The Long Weekend: Monday














On Monday we joined our cousins and friends at a park to acknowledge Australia Day. It was lovely to spend the day with friends and family, and although it did get insufferably hot, the lake was a good cooling down tool!

The Long Weekend: Sunday

On Sunday we had Carla and Meaghan stay for the day. They came at lunch time and left with us to got to our cousin's picnic on Monday.
We had a very enjoyable time! Here are some photos of what we did during the day and night:

Playing Articulate.

The last game we played was Jenga.
We were all a bit hysterical!

The Long Weekend: Saturday



The Long Weekend has been a very busy one for us; I will start by telling you about Saturday, the 24th, we drove to Bowral to help celebrate our friend Lara's 18th birthday.



During the 2 hour drive.










Bek and Bec.

The birthday girl.

Musical Chairs with the song "I'm On My Way" by the Proclaimers.

When the music started playing the partner sitting on your lap would have to jump up and start running; when the music stopped the partner had to get back to their person's lap as fast as possible.






Jamie and Jeremy won!

The next game was "Find Your Family."

Madd and Michael.


C.J. and Tiff played a duet before dinner with the flute and clarinet.
