Our Holiday on the Bellarine Peninsula

Jeff, Jacob, Christian and I are currently having a fantastic time staying at the Big4 Bellarine.  We leisurely headed up on Friday, stopping for lunch, and the boys have had a great time playing on the playground, jumping pillows (which Jacob calls the bouncy blobs lol!!), swimming in the pool, riding go-carts, etc…..

We spent Saturday driving to Torquay for a play at the beach and lunch, the heading to Amaze N’ Games for a round of Mini Golf and a bit of competitive mazing!



There are any pictures of us in the maze, because Christian and I were running around like mad people trying to beat Jeff and Jacob to the four flags and exit - which we did by about 5 minutes!
Of course, when we arrived back at our cabin, the first thing the boys wanted to do was head back to the pool!

Speaking of the cabins, they are amazing! And after sleeping in this…..

I don’t think we are looking at replacing our old double bed with a queen anymore – King-size all the way baby!! Honestly, I wouldn’t have even know anyone else was in the bed there was so much room :)
We are hoping the weather holds up tomorrow as we are planning on visiting the Werribee open Range Zoo on the way hope! Cross fingers :)

A Midsummer Night’s Dream

After months of rehearsals, Zachary has performed in his school production of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” and, without any mummy bias at all, it was fantastic! I wasn’t able to get many photos during the performance, but here is a few that were displayed on the night.

Well done to all the cast & crew members - you did a brilliant job and the performance was enjoyed by everyone :)

Mary Poppins!

Well I’ve managed to complete numbers 11 and 38 of my 40 Things Before 40 list. For my Mum’s birthday, I got tickets to see Mary Poppins at Her Majesty's Theatre in Melbourne.

We had originally planned to spend the afternoon in the city beforehand, but the weather was not being kind :( So, we started out with a cuppa at Mum and Dad’s before heading to the station to catch the train in.
Our first stop was the Elephant & Wheelbarrow for a coffee and a snack – honestly, we really didn’t think we could eat all those yummy steakhouse fries!! 
But hey, we persevered……………
Next stop, the main attraction.
I have to say the show was AMAZING!!!!!!! The music, the dancing, the atmosphere, all simply incredible!!
