I was a bit sneaky about going to Hunter V.alley Garden to see the snow. I told and showed you all and then told your father we were going. There was no way he could say no like he always does. I was sick of not being able to take you anywhere.
Zack you were so excited to be going to the snow. We had also planned to go go to aqua golf and you were also excited to go there. That was the place Dad wanted to go. I also planned to go to Hunter V.alley Zoo on the way home which we were all excited about.
We got to the gardens as it opened and went right up to the snow. It was a freezing day. Colder than it had been. We were all rugged up. There were people everywhere and you were all jumping around like cray. You all jumped into the snow to start to make a snowman. You quickly came back out to get your gloves. Zack you gave up pretty quickly because it was to cold. You wanted to go over to the other side to throw snowballs at people, so dad took you over but you chickened out. After about an hour we went to look at the gardens as we were all freezing and Zack you still wouldn't touch the snow LOL.
You all loved the rest of the gardens. Especially the children's garden. There they had a jumping castle which you all (bar Koen) jumped on. I large chair, face painting and clowns. We spent a long time there. The husky dogs and pups we also spent quite some time looking at.
It was drizzling rain so we went over to the shopping bit where we went to get some lunch. Got some lunch and ate it in the park. We then walked to the aqua golf. We didn't spend long there as the man was very rude.
By now it was time to head to the motel. We got lost on the way drove right past it, a long way past it. When we got there our room wasn't ready. We didn't have to wait long though. Our room was huge and very nice. DOuble story and big balcony. We watched some tv, played etc. For tea we drove to Harrington's pub and got takeaway. It was the yummiest. Zack you ate the BIGGEST steak and chips. Ashton you had fish and chips and Mahli you had some of everyones.
That night we were all very tired especially me who had had bearly 2 hours sleep the night before bc of Koen and then had to drive the next morning. You played musical beds a bit until finally Koen and Ashton slept in one bed with me and Zack and Mahli with dad.
The next morning we were up bright and early after a pretty good night sleep beside me finding Ashton asleep on the floor at one stage. We packed up and headed to the zoo. It was great everything was so hands on and you were all so excited. Feeding the sheep, goats and Kangaroo's where the highlight. The Kangaroo snatched the whole cup of food right out of Ashton's hand, a goat chased Zack after the food and a sheep tried to eat Mahli cardigan which was all very funny. We also got to pat the wombats and Koala's and the boys touched a crocodile and snake. There was a funny monkey show on that you all loved as well.
Love you all so much, Mum xoxox
