The last few weeks have been busy as usual ... we have mainly been pre-occupied with back to school and organising to get our 4wd back from Port Macquarie!
Blake has settled into another school year (a few dramas to begin with but all sorted now) ... Year 6 this year {sigh} ... i so hope the year slows down 'cause i'm can't get my head around the thought of him going to highschool next year!!
Last weekend we re-visited Port Macquarie to collect our repaired 4wd and to finish off the weekend away we never got to enjoy 2 weeks ago !!
Blake brought one of his best little mates along again ... we stayed at Rydges Port Macquarie (highly recommend to anyone looking for a lovely weekend away ... situated on the waterfront, beautiful facilities and walk across the road to CBD). Even though the weather was very ordinary, we still had a lovely time.
On Saturday afternoon the rain held off enough for us to go for a walk along the breakwall ... love this walk, looking at all the painted rocks is quite entertaining!
On Sunday we were determined not to let the weather spoil our plans to visit TimberTown (hadn't been there since i was a kid)!
We purchased 4 cheap umbrellas from GoLo and off we went ...
The upside to visiting places like this on a wet day is that you don't have to share with many other people ... no crowds or waiting !
The boys were quite fascinated by the replicated olden day lifestyle (they are at a good age to comprehend the vast difference compared to today's way of life) ...
Love this pic of Blake at the water pump
and this is one of my favourites too (is a little hazy as it was quite dark in the stable and i didn't want to use a flash in case i frightened 'stewart' (the horse) so i had to try and enhance the photo as best i could with my photo software)
Lousy weather again today ... had to work for a few hours but spent the rest of the day indoors scrapping ... will be back to share soon!
Hope you are enjoying your weekend!

Great pics. Looks like you had a good time away.
It's nice to see the rain. Up here in Qld we were starting to wonder what it was...We do now! It hasn't stopped raining in weeks! :)
