Seaworld and Wet N Wild...

Our family outing was twofold today... Seaworld then Wet N Wild...

At Seaworld we didn't go in any rides this time. We watched the Dolphin Show, which has been changed, touched the Stingrays, checked out the Sharks, enjoyed watching the Polar Bears that were very active today and also enjoyed watching the Penguins.

One penguin is sitting on an egg too :)

We left when it was pouring rain and there was a huge thunderstorm to boot.

Didn't get better at Wet N Wild. We went in but all rides and pools were shut due to the lingering thunderstorm and the accompanied lightening. Was eerily quiet and the wave pool with no one in it looked strange... We stayed for a little while but then left as there weren't any rides for the boys to go on. 

The ride home had patches of rain and now we're home it's raining, with a thunderstorm... I hope and pray it rains all night :)

Blessings,


Such posers :)

Jerry Coleby-Williams...

He spoke at Warwick Town Hall tonight. Perfect timing as the boys went to Youthgroup with two other friends.

For three hours (except a 20min break) he spoke for three hours on 'Bellis', his home in Wynnum, Moreton Bay. He spoke about his sustainable home and garden and how he's transformed his property in just 11 years... 

It is incredible how much food he harvestes every year. Russell and I got allot out of it and can't wait to get going more in our own...

Blessings,

Rolled ankle update...

Went to Physio yesterday and it was suggested to me that I take another week off work. 

My foot was tapped up and a compression bandage was also put on. I have three excercises to do till I see Heather again, Tuesday morning. I am going to try one sleepover shift and see how I go. Can't wait to go for a little walk tomorrow... I am also very nervous as I feel very unsteady on my feet at this point in time... I'm taking Josh with me just in case and for mora support. He wants to go shoot some hoops and I'm totally fine with that ;)

Blessings,

Table tennis...

Josh has started playing it at school with friends at lunchtimes...

He doesn't feel quite up to the challenge of flogging someone... So seeing we've had a table in perfect condition for about 8 years... We thought it'd be a great opportunity for the whole family to play the game and get good at it at the same time :)

So for now, my car lives outside the shed and the table had been set up in the shed! Love hearing the ball going back and forth. Love that the boys are choosing to play the game together... Just fantastic!

Bats, ball, table and net are all in excellent condition :) Might have a game tomorrow myself ;)

Blessings,

Venus Flytrap Flowering...

They're so dainty and lovely... Loved watching the buds form and then have them open up one by one...

Happiest when active...

Both the boys still love the trampoline... I am deeply thankful for the person that invented it :)

Josh loves doing backflips and yesterday he was having fun trying to jump as high as he could...

What's with the tongue though hehe...
