Queen's B.Day

this year we had a quiet long weekend celebrating our queen's bday.

we took the boys on a hike to horseshoe falls in hazel brook.

we thought after the recent rain the waterfalls would be pretty sweet.

and they were.

you could hear them as soon as we got out of the car.

the walk down to the waterfall was FULL of water.

i came ill-prepared and had white chucks on.

let's take a moment to be honest

- jevan and i had been fighting all morning,

the plans i wanted to do fell through so i was being a bit of a grump.

jevan told me to get ready and we would just go somewhere.

i really didn't think we would end up hiking

but we did.

my once white chucks are now a very yuck brown colour.

i got the way down there with them being white,

probably 50m to the car i stepped in a massive massive puddle of water,

and that was the end of that.

even though the morning was pretty crappy,

the afternoon was so much fun.

there was a cave we crawled into behind the waterfall,

there were trees fallen down that we climbed on,

massive rocks to try and fit through.

the best thing about having all boys is the toilet issue isn't really an issue.

they go wherever whenever.

we had a family dinner that night,

church on sunday followed by dinner at friends

and then on monday we had a day at home,

playing basketball and rugby with each other.

we also realise NONE of the boys are great losers.
