Summer Sunset

By

We've been enjoying our summer (of course!) so I thought I'd share a couple photos. This was a sunset dog walk at back beach and Dustin was kicking himself for not bringing his board! The waves were stunning and perfect.


This was celebrating Rachel's birthday (the actual day of, not the Tarantino-themed party the weekend before!)


This was our Christmas camping trip (and incidentally, we returned on new year's eve). We just stayed a night each time but it was only about 45 minutes away so it was easy.

Dustin worked through the non public holidays but my office was closed so I was off but went back last Tuesday. This week most other companies are now back too so we're back into routines.

Lots of concerts at the park coming up though with the festival of lights on so we're trying to hit up a few more, they are free so it's a great night out with a picnic and some drinks!

We're moving slowly through the kitchen reno, bit by bit. We're trying to get some plans together for another visit to the kai festival next month so a little weekend away is on the books!

Hope that your winter or summer breaks were relaxing!!

Taranaki Rugby!

Some photos from the game on Saturday afternoon. The wind caused a few wayward kicks and the torrential downpour mid-game made the ball slip all over the place but then the sun came out and Taranaki won! They were playing Canterbury who are now behind them by one place in the rankings. We had fun and managed to walk there and back without catching any of the rain. The steam-breathing drivable mascot I don't think the photo does justice to just how much it was raining! Line out Go the 'Naki! (They are the yellow and black team.)

Not for the squeamish

By
Well the long hours of work and planning and helping friends demo sheds and paper shuffling and biking and cooking and eating and cleaning have caught up with us and Dustin has relinquished his right to tell his story from last week. **Note, the pictures are gross so beware if you are a little faint seeing blood... So, last Friday I had worked the early shift and was back at home on a call with a virtual assisting client, so naturally my mobile was on silent, and as soon as I hung up, the home phone rang. (This is a phone that only people who have had a part in giving birth to one of us tend to use... that and wrong numbers, we get a surprising number of wrong numbers...) Anyways when Dustin's voice was on the other end the confusion began. "Hi, I'm at the hospital. Come here now." "What happened??" "I'm fine. Just come up here." (Wheels spinning in my head...) "Are you sure? I think it will take me too long to bike because I
