4wd with our wonderful friends.

Well a big hello!  As the school holidays draw to an end and my lil' family winds down I thought i would blog about the day we enjoyed last Monday with our beautiful friends...Claire, Dave and their lovely daughters Megan and Olivia, Maddona and Eric, Larissa and Paul and their gorgouse kids Tiana, Jay & Ally....and the 4 of us, of course.

About a month ago my husband was lucky enough to get a 'brand spankin' new, off the showroom floor' work car.  It so happened to be the new B-50 Mazda 4WD duel cab ute.  It was a bit of a treat for us as we've never had a new, new car ever before.  My hubby is 40 at the end of this year and feels a bit chuffed that he actually got a brand spanker before he hit 40, LOL.

Somthing we never expected to ever have...that along with having our own home!!  The 2 things we NEVER  in our craziest thoughts we'd have...pretty exciting huh?

Anyhoo...back to last Monday.  We, along with our friends decided to head out west...just past beau dessert (around the scenic rim) and head for a 4WD track.  Now as ive mentioned many, many ties me and my husband are coasties.  We've only been 4WDing a couple of times and it was on Stradbroke island...along the beach another once when we camped at Balina beach.  So heading out to the dust and hills was a tad different...but it was such a fun, fun lovely day.  Just check out the scenery...

Can you see the waterfall in the distance?...

Sooooo Pretty....

Through the water....

Our friends poor car suffered a little...

When we pulled over a few horseback riders passed, was pretty cool...

  ...and moo cows greeted us on the road side, perfect...

After a big days driving we got home, tired, dirty and happy!  We all slept well that night.  It was the funnest day ever.  I must say, it does help when you have friends that make you laugh the whole day.  Im very thankful and lucky for that.
