HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY DANTE

Today we head up to Auckland to spend the day with Steve, Bex and the boys.... as it is Dante's 5th Birthday.

There isn't a big party planned, they have far too much on right now with their move happening in under a week!

So, just a little gathering of a couple of his friends from Kindy and us.

While we are up there we plan on doing a drive by of their new home, and have a look around the area.  I want to show Keera her new school too.

She is super excited!  So many changes for all of them... new home, new car, new school, new SISTER/DAUGHTER!  

So as you can imagine, it's going to be a BIG day for everyone. 

We are leaving asap, so I better get a move on.  Luckily, we have a friend here in town coming over to check on the puppies for us a couple of times today, so I don't have to worry about them.  Yaaaa.

We should be back by dinnertime... so catch you then!

ONWARD...


ABOVE:  I made a couple of Mug Rugs (Coasters) last night.  I had forgotten how much fun they are to make.

4.50 pm:  And finally home after a long, hot, enjoyable day.

Some photos:

 ABOVE:  Gorgeous wee Sophie, hasn't been all that keen on Steve before today... but TODAY?  Decided he was rather lovely! So bloody cute.


ABOVE: Sophie's Mummy, Nicky.  LOL... sorry Chick... you really did set yourself up for that picture!   At least you tried... I was no way in hell gunna do it.  *smiles*

After the party, we went over to check out the new house/school and beach.  Which was nice... lovely area to be living in.

Then we went back to Steve and Bex's for a little while before coming home.

Puppies and Coco were just fine, such a relief to find Coco STILL at home!  I was worried she would do everything she could to escape, but NOPE, we have finally foiled her best attempts obviously.

10.41 pm:  After dinner we had a visit from Russell and Ange, which was lovely.  We might see them on Christmas Day all going well.

Time to sign off for the day.
