Easter weekend 2010

Happy Easter everyone! Ok, so it's long past now and I'm just getting around to posting all these photos! We had a very busy weekend and it took a few days to get over it! We spent the weekend doing fun things with our friends. Saturday Eldon looked after Rhys while I did some baking with my friend Danielle for Easter Sunday dinner and then went bowling with some others in the afternoon. Sunday we drove to Cloncurry for the meeting. Then we all met up again back in the Isa for dinner and Tim and Danielle's. We had an easter egg hunt for the kiddies after they decorated their own baskets. Then on Monday we took a 4WD trip to a couple of interesting places around Mt Isa. That was a bigger day than we thought and so Monday night was not a very good night for Rhys. Anyway, we had a great weekend with friends and hope you all did too!

The Bandaid Tree...apparently the leaves are used by the Aborigines for bandaids and the fruit is seriously posionous
The old Mary Kathleen uranium mine, now abandoned...it's not a good idea to swim in this water, no matter how pretty...

Eva was really glad to be out of the car!
