Melton Sports Day!

It's the Australian Football League Grand Final weekend this week and last weekend we went to a community hosted family fun sports day!
The event was filled with entertainment such as face painting, balloon animals, popcorn, fairy floss and a sports carnival where everyone who attended
was provided with either a football, soccer ball, basketball or grid iron ball.

The open field was used for kids to play with their newly aquired balls and have fun with their parents and FREE food and coffee was on hand for people
to stay caffined up and have their tummies filled.

Also located at the park is play equipment for all ages fun and plenty of kids to make new friends with.

The weather wasn't the best and it brought down some showers which dampened the sporting fun despite some kids taking the opportunity to
slip and slide in the mud making the event a whole new level of fun!

We enjoyed music from a live band and when the rain hit the entertainers took to the shelter to continue the fun with all the kids and finding new things
to do and keep the kids occupied.

Little miss was determined to have her face painted and withstood the storm in line to ensure she had her face painted. If you have followed my previous stories
you might be aware how quite often we spend hours in line waiting for face painting often moving close to having it done only for the face painters to close shop.
Out of the 20+ times we have waited in line this is the second time little miss has had her face painted! Success!

Mum had to work at the hospital today so she wasn't able to join us but Nan came along to join in on the family fun and we had an absolute ball riding the zip line and
both riding down the extra large slide!

Over 200 families attended the event marking one of the best sporting day events we have had in our community for a long time starting at 10am finishing at 3:30pm
It was a full day with plenty of time to explore and enjoy what the event had on offer.

We look forward to the next event and can't wait to do more exploring!
