Follow Us on Our Adventures
It already feels like it’s been forever since Clay and his family were here, but it was two weeks of fun filled adventures. We had a blast having them here, but the kids are missing Kirsten and Kendall greatly. I hear about them all the time. They can’t wait to get to America to see them. Things started off a…
First off, as I’m sure you have noticed, I’m a blog-slacker. So, now, why am I a blog-slacker? First, I’ll blame it on our company! We had such a nice visit with Clay, Heidi and the girls, and I’ve started a blog post… But, I took so many pictures that I’ve been procrastinating with going through them all and uploading…
I hope everyone had a lovely Mother’s Day. I certainly did, especially because I got to experience my first Mother’s Day celebration at Isla’s school. Isla was so excited to have me come to the celebration- so much so that we had to count it down for a week. It was really interesting to see how she handled it too….
Yes, he’s 3! Although, when I kept saying to him before his birthday, “You are going to be 3!” He said that he did not want to be 3, and when I asked why, he said, “I don’t want to be a number.” My sentiments exactly as I approach a milestone birthday… Nevertheless, he came around and graciously accepted his…
Over the past few weekends, we’ve gotten out and explored a little. After a girls’ night out and little sleep, Brent decided it was a really great day for a hike! I wasn’t as thrilled, but it turned out to be a nice day trip. We drove about 1 hour (of which I got to nap!) towards the Dandenong mountains…
By this point, this post is probably more for me (and the kids in the future) so that I actually go through our remaining vacation pictures and document what we did….Anyhow, here we go…. We spent about six days finishing our route of the North Island which is highlighted in black. As anticipated, the day traveling to the North Island…
Even though Brent says it’s made up, I still like Valentine’s Day. And since it doesn’t seem like the season for Valentine’s Day (it was sunny and in the 70s today), I didn’t put much thought into it. Plus Brent had been away for over a week, so I was focused on keeping things fairly simple! However, yesterday, I realized…
Our summer has officially come to an end already. And, it’s still not as warm as I expected it to be! Isla started back to St. Leonard’s on Monday and is in the 4 year old early learning centre class. Monday morning may have been more exciting than Christmas morning. She was thrilled to return. Yes, we are slightly breaking…
Big surprise- I’ve taken way too many pictures of our trip, so I’m going to separate them into more than one post. But, beware, this one is a long one! Some trip highlights are: Visited both the South Island and North Island flying into Christchurch to start the journey and flying out of Auckland to return to AU. Traveled over…
