Coff's Harbour #2- Dad's Brunch!

Thursday morning we celebrated an early 60th birthday for Dad.

We met at Sawtell for a brunch,and all the kids were so beautifully behaved.

Lexie deciding that a "sugar shot" is all she needs

" Maybe another??" Ryan all confused with the whole "brunch" thing

Coff's Harbour #1!

So on the Monday bright and early we headed to Coff's.

The day was special as it was Alyce's 21st birthday and the idea was to surprise her but that didn't quite go to plan.But we got her good as she finished Uni. Hiding in her car that we had trashed with balloons and streamer's (note:coloured streamer's on a wet car isn't good,the siggy sigma was abit discoloured for the week)

So here is the first couple of day's spent there.

Nathan being a gentleman and taking in my shopping after a day out with Mum. Tamara, Lindsay and the boy's rocked up in the late afternoon.

The afternoon's were nice and warm so playing on the equipment was a must for a break

Afternoon tea time and dry cereal was the go

Time for more playing and a walk to the beach on dusk

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Oh portrait shot's, gotta love them

My younger ......................

One of the few moments when Lexie and Ryan were hand in hand for joy and happiness.

Father's Day

Our holiday's had started and we were off!

First stop,Penrith,to visit Relle, Sami,and Alara.

Saturday night Relle cooked dinner and we had Aunty Ruth and Uncle Bill over.

A fabulous night with alot of laughs was had,and a great catch up also.(See Relle's blog for pic's)

Sunday of course was Father's day and to begin the day presents were given and hugs all round.

Relle and l also thought what better way for Nath and Sami to celebrate their day, then to look after their darling daughter's whilst us girls popped to the shop's.hehehe.

Sami opened his hand made gift which was a very yummy fruit and nut slice,decorated in a hand painted,finger printed box. Lexie giving Nath his gift but of course with abit of help opening "Feel the quality daddy!" My two sweetie's Different two sweetie's on a break from their quarrels Banana shuts them up,maybe it was a game who could put it in the fastest.....

La la wins!

Man of the house at the BBQ post!

(good thing he is a fireman,we had a fire start on the barbie,oops he started it)

Lucho with his mum and dad (Jill and Morgan) came around in the afternoon for lunch

Ah.. the tin of Milo was out and it was ice-cream time.

Look at Nath and Relle, first in line

Alara got her first taste of ice-cream (not sure if milo was applied) but she was into it like she had Heinrich blood in her?

Lexie loving every mouth full

Thankyou guy's for yet another great time spent together,

can't wait till next time for more tummy rumbler's!
