Toowoon Bay

this year jevan and i decided to do something a little different.
jevan would take off a day during the holidays and 
we would spend the day doing something fun with the boys.
the last holidays he took a monday off and we turned it into a long weekend.
we spent it camping up at Toowoon Bay,
(just near The Entrance.)
we had such a great time,
our boys LOVE camping.
they can get messy,
run a muck around the camp site without being told to shush,
they can have days skipping showers and its completely acceptable.
jevan and i love it because they wake up early and go to sleep straight after dinner.
this holiday we ticked off some of my bucket list items.
caves beach - AMAZING !
we had the best time exploring all the entrances in and out of the caves
and swimming in rock pools.
we had seaweed fights and built the land of zarahemla (makai named it)
out of large rocks we found.
sunrise watching.
the coastal walk at the Bouddi National Park.
this walk was beautiful.
the sandstone walls with a never-ending ocean on one side and bush on the other.
it took us FOREVER to walk one way,
so jevan and i devised a plan to help speed up the way back.
one - zayden went in the carrier
two - zayden and jevan were the burgens and makai, brax and i were the trolls.
we had the best fun and by the time we made it back to the car we were all dripping with sweat.
we headed to the pelican feeding at the entrance on the way back to our site.
this was the boys favourite but jevan and my least favourite.
the crowds were insane.
 monday saw us pack up our holiday and begin to head home,
but before heading back we decided to use up our whole day.
we went to Norah Head Lighthouse.
the boys thought it was pretty neat that they got to go right up the top of a real working lighthouse.
then to finish off our holiday we had a classic fish and chips for lunch,
followed by a swim at the beach.
this little getaway was a perfect way too finish the school holidays.
also we ate way too many marshmallows,
- braxton was in heaven.
