Happy Australia Day fellow Aussies everywhere! We had a fabulous day today. The weather started of a little awful, but we dragged the children out of bed at 7am to make our way to the annual Charity fun run in our area. Lets just say that fun running is not considered 'fun' when running with your children when they 'don't want to run as everything hurts'...but it was a good morning and I am proud to say that my Jonah came in at 101st place out of nearly 400 people for the 3km run....He just took off and I didn't even know where he was!! haha. Good boy Jonah....here are some pics...so here is me with the kids..{Naomi looks really impressed hey...}
Here is hubby with the kids
This is Naomi taking OFF her bib as it was interfering with her sensory issues...and well, lets just say that she didn't get a recorded time on the day! :(
Here are all the runners....Naomi decided that it was more fun to cross into the path of the fast runners and nearly cause a collision...I promptly handed her over to hubby and continued the run with Hannah who complained about being 'tired' and needing to 'go to the toilet' the rest of the way!
All in all we finished the race. Not a bad effort for team Bunyon. :)
When we got home we had some of our close friends for lunch and this baby was part of the menu...If you are Australian, you have tried this..but nothing like this one..............
