CFA Family Fun Day

About three weeks ago, I went to James and Stacey's for the CFA Family Fun Day. CFA being the Country Fire Authority, which they are both involved in.

So, the family got in the car and drove about an hour and a half to Rochwood Winery, where much fun was had.

There was food, games for kids, and, strangely enough, lots and lots of country music. Even a performer from Nashville!

When we got there, the security people took our umbrellas, saying they were not allowed. Apparently umbrellas are a danger at large gatherings? But they later gave them back, deciding it'd be safe after all.

This was a good thing, since it rained!

But then it stopped. Hooray!

Here is a picture of Myles chilling out on my lap.

At some point in the day, I noticed that there was a giant kangaroo and giant koala wandering around. I later learnt that they were Ranger Roo and Captain Koala. I was so excited!! I wanted to have my picture taken with them. But I couldn't get close enough to them. Too many kids!

So I convinced Amity that it was actually her who really wanted her picture with the giant animals. She asked if I would please take her to be photographed with Ranger Roo and Captain Koala, and I kindly obliged.

Off we went!

Ranger Roo!!

Captain Koala!!!

Also, at some point during the day, Amity had her first try at drinking out of a big girl cup (as opposed to bottle). But she couldn't get it to work and was sad. I think she can do it now though But anyway, I thought I ought to capture the occasion, so here it is!

And that was the family fun day! Yay!
