Easter Picnic by the Lake

We weren't exactly ON the lake, but we were close enough. What I mean is, we could SEE one of its "tributaries". :D

We packed up a picnic lunch and headed out to SeaBee Park with Uncle Lin for an Easter Picnic.

It was bright and sunshiny, but the only thing was THE WIND!

We made do, and tried to pin everything down as much as we could.. but nothing could be done about the little boy's hair, tho. :P


It was quite a feast. The hubs baked some chicken and slow-cooked beans, and I prepared watermelon, cornbread, bacon ranch potato salad and macaroni & cheese.


After lunch, the little boy was raring to go run on the big field - a plastic sack got caught by the wind, and he took that opportunity to run off after it.


The little boy had won a prize at one of the Easter Egg Hunts the day before - a Rocketcopter dealy...
and so this was the perfect time to give them a go.


After that, the little boy and I sat and relaxed and watched Daddy do some fancy kite-flying with the Dual Line kite.


Uncle Lin was so intrigued, he asked if HE could have a turn.


It was pleasant enough out in the sun, not too hot, so the little boy and I were content to just watch the big boys play.




We've been out here a few time when the RC Society were doing their aerial acrobatics, but the wind was probably too strong even for the hard core types today.

OR, they could just have been at home spending Easter with their families.


Soon it was time to go, grateful for a full belly and a fun day out with the boys.
