Happy Australia Day!!!!


Tuesday 26th January 2010

What a day it was as well.. The 4 of us had an awesome day, but a day that almost didn't happen.

Richard has been pretty sick over the past few days, he had a bad case of gastro. He was still a little iffy this morning, but made the call to go out with us, and I'm so glad that he did.

We went to the Zoo, and then to a friends place for a BBQ in the afternoon. While we were at the Zoo we got to see the Panda's, Wang Wang and Funi. OMG it was completely AMAZING to stand there and watch them in the real. The exhibit it amazing as well, such a HUGE open area for them, and what really made if for me, was there was no glass wall in front of you. Out in the enclosure, you could actually see them as if you were looking at a person dead in front of you. Ooopppssss I think I'm rambling, if you get the chance, GO AND SEE THEM!!!! You won't be disappointed I promise.

Then as I said, after the Zoo we went to Lauren and Peter's for an Australia Day BBQ. We were only going to go for an hour, as we had to come home and get things ready for back to Kindy tomorrow, but I think we ended up leaving about 4 hours later. For once Richard was enjoying himself, and had a GREAT time, the boys were the most well behaved I've seen them in a LONG TIME, and Mum and I had fun talking and laughing. Now we can't wait for Lauren and Peter to come here this weekend for Richard's birthday dinner.

Here are a few pics of our day at the Zoo...
