I had a lovely break at home...catching up with family and friends.These are some of the family snaps.....
Hugo- now 2. We celebrated his 2nd birthday while I was in Auckland. It was a very special time to be included in a morning tea for 7 2yr olds!!And making an aeroplane birthday cake.
Madison and I enjoyed catching up with my cat- Silka.She's living in my house still-seems to be happy with her new(temporary )mum.
Laura(and her sisters) put on a surprise birthday for me. It was a wonderful day catching up with some dear rellies......and friends.
Anna had us for Christmas tea- this is her labrador doing his party trick...he will sit with something on his nose until you tell him he can eat......(not chocolate bell tho).
Cooling down on Boxing day- Craig with the 2 dogs in the pool!!!
My dear friend Jude and I made time to have a holiday- we had a few days staying in the camping ground in Naseby.It was relaxing, and the weather behaved.We chased sunsets, got stuck in mud (not good with a rental car !)....had many laughs. I really enjoy returning to an area I know- rephotographed this lovely old cookhouse. Spent a lot of time in the Maniototo- it is very special.
I am heading home again at Easter- so roll on the weeks.
Take care everyone especially on the roads. I lost 2 friends(a couple) to a nasty motorbike accident just after Christmas- makes one realise how fragile life is- please make the most of everyday.
