Last Saturday

We headed out for the day with our 'Besties'... The Mathers. First stop Govetts Leap, Blackheath in the Blue Mountains.
Just one of the pretty waterfalls as you hike down the mountain.
We hiked down to the water and on the way back the boys (Don & Mark) decided they would make there way up the mountain 'Bear Grylls' style. Ill have to find some photos of them climbing back up. They were pumped by the time they meet up with us.
We had a picnic lunch and enjoyed the scenery and it was off to... I'm actually not quite sure what the place was called but its near Mt Victoria I think.
Aahhh! Look at that view!
Mark decided this was a perfect place to Abseil and rock climb. So after a quick run back to the car, he grabed his ropes and thought it a good idea to tie off on these 2 little rocks!!! I was freaking out! And after Mark went, Don decided to give it a go! He wanted me to take photos but all I could think about was not throwing up!!! I was so scared for him!
Next up Don's turn...
And then Kristen had a turn...

What a great way to end a perfect day!

Don & I spent Sunday down at the river... It was so relaxing and great to just spend a little time together. We went for the Bridge to Bridge Race. Water skiiers racing each other for the best times. They flew past us and we were lucky to get a few pictures. We were at Wisemens Ferry and we love it there. Its about a 45 minute drive and feels like a different world to what we live in. Time seems to slowly pass by and you feel carefree. The scenery is beautiful... what more could you ask for?!
EASTER... Was fantastic... We all stayed at mum and dads for the extra long weekend. Matt, Jade and Pacey came down, Tayce and Josh, Don and I and Marley and Krystal and Kyle. We did miss the other Krokies... but after reading their blog sounds like they had a wonderful time too!
Pacey had her second 1st Birthday party for those of us in Sydney. She is so adorable! I wish I had a picture of the cake Jade made, it was amazing!
The girls loved the flapping eyes of Eeyore.
Every girl loves shoes...

Sydney by night is just stunning... Last month I surprised Don and took him to the Ballet. We meet Tayce & Josh and had a fantastic night in the city.
