Holiday

If you're looking for us, we are on holiday as of tomorrow. Church in the morning, then pack and off to Waihi for 2 nights with Nate's family then 7 nights at Cook's Beach with our friends. We weren't going to go to Waihi but now we are. I'm just hoping we remember to pack everything! It's not like we can do a quick trip home to pick things up that we forgot like we could this past week at the farm.
We went to the family farm to camp from Monday to Thursday with our friends the Robinson's, Hapuku's and Tini's. It was a GREAT time and boy there are some stories that will be told and retold for some time to come. Motorbikes, swimming, eeling, fireworks, roasted marshmallows, wave pool, Wendy's, Articulate (the game).... ah so fun.
Emmy's birthday was on Thursday. She was very happy to get her itunes cards from Uncle Regan and Uncle Andre. And she has spent them already. She's loving it. She also got a baptism dress, scriptures, CTR ring, clothes, journal, chocolate, skipping rope, books, pen and headbands. Oh and a necklace from Great-Grandma. Granny is going to take her shoe shopping when we get home from holiday for some church shoes.
New Years Eve was spent at the Robinson's for dinner and a swim and another game of Articulate. That is one game I would like to get for our family. It gets the brain thinking. We saw in the new year (even Emerson did, the other 3 fell asleep) and Nate thought that deserved a celebratory swim. Brrrrrr.....
So we have some pretty tired kids, and it's not going to get much better for a couple days yet. Ah well, it's holidays!
See you on the 11th.

To Jacinda: H A P P Y B I R T H D A Y for tomorrow! I hope you have a really great day with your family. xx
