Happy Easter to all.Always late.That's me!
It was an exhausting but fun weekend full of family,friends,and yeah-predictably,chocolate. There was a lovely lunch/dinner at our fine friends on Good Friday which included a very lord-of-the-flies-rugby-match,a tad too much alcohol,a furry jacket to take you to the heights of rockstar, and some serious laughter.
Saturday was the first family day we have had in months.All 5 of us.Together.All day.With no outside interruptions.The girl child and I got painting on some canvases.The boys got busy making car models. Nerdy I know. But they were into it.So all good.
Sunday was spent with my family at Mt Macedon.As soon as I get there, I feel relaxed. The trees,the birds,the leaves...aaaah!
Instead of buying all the kids eggs, we had a big hunt instead...and this hunt was dubbed the "never ending hunt" as my brother in law continually tormented the kids by tipping out their egg collections....the hunt went for over an hour and was like some bizarre scene out of a comedy film.
It was a great day.
Monday morning we did the dawn service. Beautiful,moving,spiritual. Makes me miss my pa and my Nonno.
Then we ventured off to the Botanical Gardens for a picnic with C's family. It was perfect weather and the gardens are so divine. The grass is almost flourescent....don't know what they are feeding that grass!
There were many birds...
A patchwork quilt...
A spot of twister..
and my favourite 1 year old...Mr Leery.
All in all a happy easter had by all.
