School holidays in Victoria are underway, and what better way for them to begin than our annual trip up to Mum and Dad's at Puckapunyal for Oktoberfest. This year we left the big boys to go have the alcoholic 'fun' whilst mum, Kati and I took the kids up to Shepparton for SheppKidsFest.
We could not believe how many people there were! For only $2 for each adult to get in and the kids free it was a great way to spend a gorgeous spring day. First point of call after a most important coffee stop was the miniature railway, though the queue to get the tickets probably took up more of our time than the actual train journey. The kids did love it though, and Ollie didn't want to get off.
After some nostalgia with a Humphrey show the kids pretty much spent the remainder of the afternoon playing on all the different playgrounds. I doubt there was a slide left the Ella had not slid down.
We could not leave without visiting the animals, though they were mostly goats. The kids loved it and Ayden was super excited to see a turkey.
The most exciting part of the weekend was definitely still to come. Sunday morning before we all headed off home we took all 4 puppies for a walk round the base and came across the CFA doing their training in the yard of the fire station. After walking over to take a look at the fire truck we were offered the opportunity to climb all over it. Given Ollie is adoring Fireman Sam at the moment there could not have been a better offer made to him.
And after lunch that was another weekend over and one tuckered little toddler who slept the whole way home.
