Family Trip to Raglan

Well, we went to the beach yesterday. It was so hot that we just had to make the most of it. Me, Dupri, Pearl, Jaxon, Dionte, Kajsa, Tuaite and Tyler all went. Had a pretty good time. Pearl did not want to touch the water. She was fine if u took her out but once she touched the water, the legs would go up and the hands would dig into yours and her face screwed up and tears pouring out of her eyes. hahahaha. She enjoyed the beach tho. Jax had just gone for a surf, the waves were pretty small, excellent for learners. So it was a good day all round. I had another pic of Dionte scoping herself out on her camera. hahaha. couldnt fit it into this blog. stink. but i will tho so watch out Dionte. hahahaha.

Dupri kept on asking me 'mum, eyes, MUM EYES!!!!" I couldnt figure out what he meant till I saw the goggles. haha. Told him what they were called and put them on him. He didnt want to take them off at all.

Dionte and Tuaite took Pearl out to the water. She still didnt like it. Oh well, one of these days she will be a water baby.

Dupri didnt want to wear anything for his togs, so he was all commando. He cracked me up. Would run up to the water and when the next wave came, he would take off. And then run back, wave came and he would take off again. hahaha. Thats pretty much how his day went. I made sure that they wouldnt burn, packed them with sunscreen and what do i do, I forgot about the hard to reach places on my back. So now, I'm the one with the sunburn and not anyone else. It doesnt hurt at all tho, so thats good. Or maybe my pain threshold has gone up again. We were all so tired when it was time to go. I couldve stayed for another couple hours but the kids needed some sleep and quiet time. I wanted to at least have a swim, but of course, now the outings are no longer about me, but just to make sure that the kids are having fun.

So that was pretty much our day, it was heaps of fun. Man my flab really comes out when I'm wearing my swimmers. Gosh, definately need to get the gym a really good go. And my eating. thats just in the pits. hahaha. Ah well, Beach was fun. Was kool hanging out with the family.
