Bunbury - Sierra's Birthday

On the weekend just gone we headed down to Bunbury to celebrate Sierra's 2nd birthday. Its hard to imagine that in a few short months our little monkey will be 2 too! (Yep, for those that aren't aware, my 2 SIL's and myself all had babies within 5 months of each other).

We drove down very early on Saturday morning and had a good run. Lucas was mostly good and kept telling Chris to lower his (passenger) chair so that he could "rub back".  Lucky me got to drive all the way down :) I love the drive, its a nice road and the double lane is fantastic!

Our present - a boogie board and book

After the party us, the older Vdl's and the Janssen's went home via Harvey. We had decided to stop there at the cheese and ice cream factory. We enjoyed a nice 3/4 of an hour browsing and having something to eat and drink.

Then just as we were packing up to head home we saw our BIL head out to the car with a worried look. He had just realised that he had locked the keys in the car!! So for the next hour the men tried to unlock the car. Finally, with the help of some wire and little bit of luck they managed to flick the drivers' side lock and we were back on our way again. Thankfully it was a pleasant 25 degs (ish) and not any warmer, as the sun reflecting off the car park was very warm! Many of us came home with sunburns from either the party or Harvey.

And this was Lucas (below) after we got home...he didn't want to sleep, so he sat in bed with his cup of milk, surrounded by his teddies, reading them a story :)


It was one of many very busy weekend that we have in the lead up to Christmas...but we had a lovely time in Bunbury, seeing family and catching up with friends :)
