2006-11-28 Fireworks!

A: Last weekend was really hot! We did lots of jobs on Saturday in preparation for all our guests on Sunday - we went to Wanaroo market to get veggies and fruit, especially mangos, then went to Woodvale to do the rest of the shopping. We then went home for some lunch and we ended up doing lots of jobs in the afternoon for our guests, and for Uncle Dave. We decided to go out for dinner as we were all very tired, and so Mummy and Daddy drove down the coast to about 4 different restaurants, and they were all full! We saw a sign for fireworks at Hillary's, so that must be the reason. I asked Mummy and Daddy if I could see the fireworks, and they said it was quite late - 8pm, which is a lot past my bedtime!

We finally found a table at the Wild Fig, which is just north of the Bennion, and Mummy had the most beautiful steak! Daddy had lamb, but kept on stealing Mummy's steak! Cheeky boy! And just when we walked out of the restaurant, the fireworks started! We watched them from the top of the walkway outside the restaurant, and it looked amazing! I was so happy!

I fell asleep on the way home, so I missed brushing my teeth! YEAH!

On Sunday, Daddy had a little lie in, but he had a big headache, so after doing a few jobs before our guests arrived, we decided to dive in the pool! It was so funny, and it seemed like our party had started before our guests had even arrived! Daddy felt much better after his swim, and I jumped on him lots of times!

Jeremy arrived with Josh, and then Claire, Paul, Jemma, Brendan and their new baby arrived! I took all the kids into the games room while the grown ups did boring things like talk, and then Daddy put the BBQ on. They loved the salad, and the chicken wings, and adored the desserts Mummy made! We then all went into the pool, and had the best time ever! We threw balls around, jumped in and out of the boat, and played with the whale. Daddy, Jeremy and Paul decided to pick us up one by one, and throw us as far as they could into the pool, and that was so funny - I curled up into the smallest ball, and went so far!

I was upset to see them go, but we had such a great time.

Daddy went to touch rugby while I stayed with Mummy.

C: We could see the Wanaroo fireworks from our balcony for 2 nights - amazing! What a view! Our first party was such a success - and hope to have many more!

S: Injured again...this time the knee...boo! Had a wonderful party though!

Uncle Dave arrived today, and can't wait to see Aiysha! She definitely cannot wait to see him!
