A night of splendour

I did all my things like shopping etc early so I could come home to watch the Royal Wedding....I loved every minute of it and found it so uplifting...I wanted to ask all the girls in my family around to have a special meal or something ..but we were going out later that night..... I thought it was all so uplifting and lovely...Tony is not into the Royals at all.....he took the dog for a long walk and stayed in the bedroom watching Keeping up Appearances....good choice.... if Mrs Bucket knew that it was Royal Wedding night she would have gotten out her Good China you know the ones with the periwinkles painted on them.......
Anyway I loved it all, made me feel good. Got to get ready for the F.H.Centre.

How far can one throw this ball

Would you believe that it was thrown and cought from the very back fence...I didn't do to bad in this one..this game lasted for ages as each one wanted to get further and further back...the weather was pleasant by now the shade had come over into the yard and the intense heat had gone...... this was the end of our Activity...some of our family went home and two families stayed and had dinner with us which was left overs from lunch and chips from the fish and chip shop....... being Good Friday we had a wait of 40 minutes that ended up being an hour...we didn't care as there was plenty of talking....all in all it was a superb day......oh there was one more game that was played into the night and that was Bochi...

Pretty tricky this one

Not many of us could stand here very long....... Matt, Brendon and Rhys were the best at this...Tony had made these boards and we borrowed Court's snooker balls..... the idea was to find balance...holding these balls on the board...I tried this one and I can assure you...it's hard..there were three sizes of conduit...the size of your foot dictated the size of conduit....

We had a two hour break between Nic and Van's activities..where we went to Nic's for lunch...while the little ones slept...then we started ours..I know I have put down a lot about our Friday..but it is for future generations hopefully to read ..and it hopefully will bring a smile to our family. Actaully the whole point of my blog is for my family and for future generations.... as long as it stays on the computer....no effort is to much really.
Never thought though that not having all of us there would happen so soon......even though I knew it had to happen. It goes to show though embrace what you have while you have it.

The Coin Thrower

Each person got $3 in fifty cent coins ...the older ones had to throw it in the cup that was buried in the centre of the ring...if you look closely you will see the cup...whatever anyone threw in the cup that 50 cents became theirs.....There were two circles one for the little ones and one for the older ones.....Sione wa so sure that he would get everyone of those coins in...but it was harder then anyone thought and none of his went in ..even when he tried to throw them in from the inner circle  haha  his a funny man !!!.......of course one or two went in by some....In the end we gave each child the three dollars worth of coins....it was a whole heap of fun though.
