Pre Christmas Lunch at the Beach

Every year we do a Pre Christmas Lunch with our good friend Edward,Eleanor and their son Branden, Last year we went to Wivenhoe Dam and it rained but we had a great time! This year we decided to have it at the beach and of coarse it was raining(The wettest December no less!)So the kids were all prepared with new togs and couldn't wait to try them out! I had bought a new pair of togs in Cairns and wanted to try them out too! So we arrived at Moffets beach, it's really nice there, and set up our lunch under the gazebo in the pouring rain. the kids were all "Can we go for a swim yet?" a hundred times while we were setting up lol! So we had our lunch and poped our Bon bons. Then Eleanor and i went down with the kids to the beach..It was lovely and warm in the water and we had the clouds lighten up and stop raining for a while so that was good! But then Eleanor started freezing and her lips were turning blue lol so we all got out and had nice warm showers and went back to our table for dessert, then we did a swap over and Edward and Fitzpatrick took the kids back down to the beach while Eleanor and i caught up. (we hadn't seen each other in a while) So when the boys got back with the kids Eleanor and i took all the kids down and got them changed and on the way back of coarse Lizzie tripped over and and skinned herself. So we had to do the band aid Treatment as usual. lol Poor little thing!
So we sat around and chatted while Lydia chased the albatross in the rain. (Lucky i had bought three changes of clothes for her). Then we headed off about just before dark, in the rain :) It was so much fun though!
