Day Off Relaxing

Had the day off today... felt it was due.

After a small lay in, I got up and cooked pancakes for breakfast and
then we bummed around the house some before heading off to the Nepean
River with a picanic basket and the dog.

Spent the lunch time / early arvo walking along the river's edge where
they have set up riding / walking paths and a few kids playgrounds. Zoe
the Dog enjoyed going in the car other than for a trip to the vet and
the girls rode their scooters. Brookie took her bike as well and we
finally took the training wheels off. She was very wobbly and couldnt
get far without my guiding hand, but at least she's started.

Went home after picking up a new set of taps for the bathroom vanity
(tomorrow's job) and had a brief nap. You know when you sleep very
soundly for like 45mins and you feel as though you've slept for 8
hours... it was one of those.

Then we went to the Drive Ins! Hadnt been in years (10+) and the girls
were amazed. Kate thought we would watch the movie on our own little TV
in the car, but was very surprised at the massive white screen. We
watched The Shaggy Dog with Tim Allen (shithouse movie, but the kids
loved it) and had McDonalds for tea and a Choc Top ice cream in the car.

The girls sat in the front seats and watched the movie whilst Niki and I
hopped in the back ;-)

The Drive In - one of those things you go "oh yeah, we should do that"
but never do... well we finally did it and 'twas fun!
