A very Smurfy day

What a Smurfabulous day today was. It started out pretty slow. I spent the morning painting the back fence. since the big ol ugly palms were  cut down the ugly fence needed to be finished off now we can get to it. gun metal grey is the colour. but it looks steel blue to me. It took a while with the cool morning for the first coat and I was loosing motivation. but I got the second coat done as far as I can until the last 2 sheets of super6 are fixed(reason the big ol ugly palms had to go). Was getting a little frustrated with the lack of  movement with everyone else in the house and then Oscar reminded me he had organized to catch up with an old friend.

So the kids and I along with Princess Sasha decided to make the most of such a beautiful afternoon and went for a walk/swim at the beach. Considering it was meant to rain all day today, we donned our hats and sunscreen and  even I went ankle deep in the ocean(tad frigid for me). Leaving the  kids to swim and mess around, Princess Sasha and I had done our bit for our butts and tums so we sat and soaked up the rays while I read for a while.. It was bliss. After that we raced home and got ourselves sorted in record time for the movie's. Finally I got to  see my beloved Smurfs.

To say as a child I was obsessed with smurfs was an understatement. I collected every single smurf there was to collect. I bought stuffed smurfs with my pocket money. I watched the cartoons religiously. I knew every smurf's name by sight. So when the movie come out I was  determined to to see it. to day was the 3rd attempt to see it and I was not disappointed.. I sang along and danced in my seat in the cinema. I didnt care there was only 1 other family in there so I had fun.

On the way home while the sun was getting ready to set, we got to see the most impressive cloud formations I have seen in a while. the kids and I were mesmerized by the glowing and pure fluffiness of them. Then we got home and what do I find.. Oscar putting the finishing touches to dinner.

Yep, today really was Smurftasticly magical. Just the  lift each of us needed. I think I can confidently  add today in the memory banks as  one of the top moments to remember in old age.
