Off Hunting!

There's been an awful lot of preparation of kit for John's hunting weekend, he should be ready for anything! Should I get the freezer clear ready for the lovely big venison that he's going to bring home?

The Pink Walk!

Mum, Adele and I met up with hundreds of others this evening on the Green next to the Lake in Rotorua to take part in 'The Pink Walk' for Breast Cancer. It was a beautiful sunny evening and hopefully they managed to raise lots of money.

Mum's Arrived!

Has it really been five and half months since she was last here? It's wonderful to have her back and with the addition of a lovely little bach for her at the top of the garden, I'm hoping she'll feel right at home. Welcome home! xxx

Skiing!!

Now this is why we moved to New Zealand......
A couple of hours drive from home and we spend the day on the ski fields, unbroken sunshine and lots of lovely snow. With my new skis I managed to ski on my first black run today so very pleased with myself.

Beaching Again

It was a lovely sunny day again on Sunday so we all (Kate, John, dogs and Pete & Adele) all headed off to Nudics beach for a relax, play some frisbee and walk the dogs. We were also joined by a very cute seal who decided to head back to the water when I got too close, oops! x Managed to get a photo though!

Beach Bumming

The sun was shining so friend Lindsay and I headed down to a local beach to exercise the dogs. It was just heaven and the water almost felt warm enough for a swim. Roll on Summer days!

A true Kiwi!

To break Pete in gently to the New Zealand way of life, John gave him some chainsaw and log splitting lessons over the weekend. You can tell by the photo that he mastered the art of wielding an axe pretty quickly.
