Movies, Barbies, and Cricket

This was a nice and relaxing weekend after having so many visitors in January. We didn't do too much. On Friday night we went to the Moonlight Cinemas (the outdoor movie theater in the parklands) to see Quantum of Solace. It was really good! I really enjoy going to the Moonlight Cinemas because for some reason watching a movie outside is just more fun! This was our third time going!

Saturday was pretty lazy during the day since it was really hot again. But Saturday night we met up with Rowan and Nyoli for a barbie in the park.


Here are Rowan and Nyoli cooking up our yummy dinner! Oh, and finally on Saturday night the heat went away and as you can see jackets were required! Yay! It is still nice and cool and shouldn't heat back up until the weekends, so we are enjoying the relief while we can!

This is Justin with his boomerang that he brought to the barbie. Now, this is his 3rd boomerang he has had since we have been here. He doesn't have too much luck with them.
Boomerang #1 : Bought at the resort at Uluru. What a great souvenir. Nope, after about three or four good throws, broken in half.
Boomerang #2: Bought in Adelaide. We brought it to another barbie with Rowan and Nyoli. After a few close calls of it getting it caught in a tree and thinking it was lost, it was thrown and broken in two.
Boomerang #3: Bought at Manly Beach in Sydney. First use on Saturday night. Right after the picture above was taken, Justin threw it and it landed on a roof of a building. Rowan had to help get it down. After a full night of throwing it, this boomerang is still in one full piece! Yay! We might even have it when we come back home in May! You never know.
On Sunday, we had a nice lazy day watching the Cricket. Australia has been doing pretty bad lately and have lost like the last 5 games. But on Sunday, they won! Yay!! We were really excited! We are really going to miss Cricket back home.
Well, that was our weekend in a nutshell. This coming up weekend we are heading down to Victor Harbour with some friends from church so that will be nice! We miss you all!!
