On Saturday we were up early for a fun filled morning. One of J's good friends was celebrating his 13th birthday out at Jonkershoek, paintballing. We all went along to enjoy the excitement and the company of the other families who were there.It brought back wonderful memories of childhood picnics and walks with my mom and dad and siblings. I remember swimming in the river and enjoying many a family outing to Jonkershoek. It is a place that has stuck in my memory of happier childhood days when my parents were still together...
Our teens are getting so big and it is amazing to watch these young adults who have a close bond enjoying each others company. Here they are all kitted out and ready to go! The birthday boy's sister was the only girl among all the guys, a brave young lady who joins in with all the adventures there are to be had!
The other girls and younger siblings all stood glued to the protective net to watch the action as it began!
Z and the birthday boys youngest brother were treated to 100 paint balls for target practice. They were thrilled to have a chance to get in on some of the action.
Above is the group of happy paint ballers who had an morning of great fun!
The moms had a chance to chat and enjoy catching up with one another while the younger kiddies ran around excitedly collecting all the paint balls they could find that had not burst on impact or simply had not hit a target. These cannot be used in the guns again as the sand on them would cause problems. They plan to shoot them with their catties in a nearby forest.
