Good Friday Easter Picnic

 We had our annual Good Friday Easter Picnic at Lennox Gardens again. It was a foggy start but then a lovely sunny day. Gary and Arlene were visiting from Melbourne so it was lovely to have them there with Ben and Matthew as well. It was the usual menu, hot cross buns, fruit, egg and bacon rolls and haloumi and then an Easter Egg Hunt. We had the Scott's and Stuarts, Gary and Arlene, Bill, Amy and I , Bindi and the kids and another family with young kids who are friends with Bindi.

After the picnic, Matthew and Gary went off to ride electric scooters around the lake, so Arlene and Ben came back with Amy and I, Matthew and Gary came out later. We had a lovely time catching up with them, they ended up staying for dinner, we got takeaway from the local Thai places. Gary and Arlene both had a snooze at some point. Ben had fun playing with Amy's squish mallows, her sensory toys and the bean bags and weighted blankets. It was lovely being able to spend time with them.



On the Sunday afternoon Amy and I glazed and baked a ham and we had a lovely family dinner with Bindi and the kids and Gary and the kids. We then played Gartic Phone and Family Feud that had us all in stitches. Was nice to see Matthew getting to know his cousins.
