Playing Outside

On a warm humid day in Townsville there is nothing more fun than harassing the dog in the back yard. So that's what the kids did. Alex liked to throw the ball for the dog while everyone watched.

Sharing Cousins

This is a picture of Charlotte teaching Lincoln to share. He might need to get a second opinon about the rules of sharing, though. I'm not sure Charlotte got it right.

So Much Fun

Ella always has a smile for the camera but today her smile was extra extra big. We all had a great day playing at the lagoon at Airlie Beach. They have a great kid's pool with sand for building sandcastles! By the time we were done a lot of that sand was in the pool.

Won't Wear Swimmers

When we arrived at the pool, Charlotte refused to put on her swimmers because she didn't want to go into the water. Funny how quickly she changed her mind.

Smiles A Mile Wide

Alex had a great time splashing in the water.

Serious Business

Building sandcastles is serious business with our kids. There is planning involved, organisation or labour (mummy must help) and appropriate safety equipment must be worn. Love the new sunglasses.

She Loves Wearing Gobbles

Charlotte found these. She won't get into the pool much less put her head under water but she insists on wearing her 'gobbles' at every opportunity.

101 Things You Can Do With Chalk

Personally, I don't see the appeal but the kids had fun today 'painting' themselves with chalk.

More Pictures

After the last two blogs both Alex and Ella have gotten the drawing bug. They wanted to draw a picture for dad and here they are.

Alex's Quiz

Alex wrote this quiz today "Is the ball going to go into the hoop? Yes No" Charlotte had to take the quiz and she answered "No" which was the right answer.
