You slept for the trip out to Fernvale and woke happy as a lark once we got to the bakery where we all settled down for some yummy breakfast pies. It was not a sunny day but the clouds made it glary and you weren't too keen on that. That was easily fixed however when Mummy gave you her sunnies. You thought they were terrific.
Once Dan and Nadia and the girls arrived, we loaded up and headed off to the property we were 4WDing on. We weren't too sure what level of 4WDing to expect but as it turned out, it was pretty easy - which is lucky considering it was both yours and Beastie's first day out! We had a couple of water crossings which are always fun, then up and down the ridgelines we went in our conga line of 4WDs, stopping every now and then to admire the view and find the fenceline at which we were supposed to be dropping off star pickets and barbed wire. You slept through the whole thing!
On top of one ridgeline, with a spectacular view of Wivenhoe, we stopped for lunch. You and Jaime had lunch too, which is really why we chose to stay in that spot to eat ours! Everyone got out their pies they had bought that morning (ours was berry - yum!).
We finished up the day around 4.30pm and started to head home. You woke up in Fernvale when the road was smoother and the speed dropped to 60km/h - you don't like it when that happens so you started crying, then screaming, and continued all the way home - even though we changed your nappy, gave you a feed, and I climbed in the back to keep you entertained. Of course, you fell asleep two minutes away from home, so we had to wake you to get you out of the car!! A big day!
