The rest of our Hols...

Well I am finally trying to catch up on this blog..
We had quite a relaxing time for the rest of our hols.. Greg got in the habit of taking the boys to the Beach first thing in the morning.. home for some quiet time and an afternoon rest and then into the pool for the afternoon..
We also had a couple of other visitors while we were there.. and Chrissie, Jane and the boys also came down for a couple of days.. that worked out very well.. We let Greg go off fishing by himself for the morning and then he looked after the kids and one arvo we went shopping and the next we went to see Avatar at the movies.. It was a great movie and it was wonderful just to spend time with Chrissie again. I really miss seeing her.

We also had David & Hayley and come to visit with their four girls too.. The boys loved catching up with everyone and we loved the distraction it provided..lol.. Got to relax and have a few drinks..yeah..

We ended up getting the boys a boogie board and didn't they love it... Connor and Declan did really well but when Greg first Brodie on it he started him too far out and let him go.. so he ended up head first in the sand.. Got the pics below but I didn't get one of his final dump.. legs in the air as I was too busy screaming at Greg to get him.. After that I had to take him to the park as he was soo not into the ocean.. luckily he got over it the next day and was happy to go swimming but there was no way he was getting back on that boogie board.. lol poor kid..

We also took the boys to Underwater World.. and they had a great time.. checking out all the sharks and stingrays and they absolutely loooved the Seal show.. We went downstairs to the seal viewing area and 'Portia' the star of the seal show took a liking to the boys.. She kept coming to them and copying what they were doing.. it was soo funny.. She was just so gorgeous..
