OUT FOR LUNCH

Today, for the first time since we moved here, a member of our FAMILY has invited us to their home for lunch!

Took long enough!  But, THANK YOU Russell and Ange, we can't wait to come over and hang out with you guys for a while.

There's nothing else on our agenda today... so an easy day.

And that's all I have for now!  

ONWARD...

I went to bed last night without seeing the live feed come back on of April.  I stressed over it all night... then checked on her at around 3am and the live feed was back.
And thankfully, no baby giraffe yet.  I didn't miss it.  
There was a lot of angst all over the world while the live feed was down, it was even on the news in the USA!  LOL, this giraffe has a HUGE following!

I'm just hoping she has it NOW, before they lose the feed for longer!  (they had snow and an internet/power outage apparently). 

My head is pounding and my back is killing me ... so taking it easy today.

 ABOVE:  I dragged Stew outside this morning... there was a huge flax like plant too close to that little tree, so I got him to dig it out and break it up... so now instead of one big plant, we got 6 !  Arrow pointing at the moved, propagated plant.

 ABOVE:  Everything is growing like crazy.

 ABOVE: When our friend Martyn was here last, he declared the blue fantail pole was in the wrong place, and 'helped' me find it a better place.  Now it's there, and we have to admit, it does look better there.

Nearly time to head off to Hamilton for lunch.   Catch ya later.
Keep an eye on April for me!

Lunch was just so lovely!  Ange had made mini pizza buns and hot dogs AND blueberry muffins!  A veritable feast, which we all enjoyed.
Lots of happy yakking, and we even played some pool.

ABOVE:  I hadn't played pool in over 40 years!  It was fun.  The kids would LOVE us to get a pool table... but two problems with that.
Room for one, and the cost.   Really can't justify it right now...and once we can, the kids will probably have left home. 

IF. THAT. EVER. HAPPENS.  *smiles*

End of Day:  it's been a nice day ... and evening.  Enjoying Broadchurch, even though it seems to be a bit slow, with lots of 'red herrings'.  Par for the course.  Still watching April, though she's being a REALLY tardy tart now.
