Just for you, Ruan!

Here we go, Ruan! Jy lyk gorgeous!!!

Ruan was our Christmas clown - he handed out all the presents - hysterical!

We love the Cape!

Yesterday we decided to spend the day traveling around the Cape area - we left home at 10am and zoomed off to Rhodes Memorial - it really is such a beautiful place to go - the views are fantastic and lots of fun (and a bit of terror) climbing onto the big lions!

Next we tried Kirstenbosch Gardens but they were VERY expensive, so gave that a skip.

Then we went to the Cape Town Museum and the kids loved showing us their favourite exhibitions!

Then we drove past Camps Bay and stopped at Llandadno beach - Jared had fallen asleep so I didn't get to go on the beach, but the kids said it was lovely.

Had lunch at Hout Bay and the kids went for a swim in that cold sea - crazy!

Then drove along Chapman's Peak - closed unfortunately but Robyn got to experience her first longdrop toilet there! She was disgusted...

After that we went to Camps Bay (swam again), up to Signal Hill lookout point, up to the Cable Car and finally home!

We got home just before 7pm! It really was a great day out and we've decided to try and do an outing like that once a month! Enjoy the photos!!!

What awaits?....

I've decided that I am not going to let my frustrations take control of how I feel - I have a lot to be grateful and thankful for.

My family is a huge blessing in my life - I am so very grateful that we are healthy, happy and strong!

I have a hubbie who loves me and does everything in his power to look after me. I have 3 gorgeous kids - yes, each one with their issues, but each one with their joys too!

I am going to be happy! Mwah!
