Kirsty's Wedding

We had an extended Easter weekend by cruising to Waiheke Island on Tuesday to attend my cousin Kirsty's wedding. The day was a bit overcast but was still lovely down on the beach. It as a beautiful wedding and the reception at Mudbrick Vineyard was great. Dean's mum came over to watch the kids which was awesome, then she and Nathan had to catch the early ferry home to work and preschool. We stayed a bit longer and caught up with the family before heading home.

My Cousin Cameron and his two kiddies, Jake and Zoe. Waiting for their Aunty to arrive.

Kirsty and Andy with Aunty Wendy and Uncle Kerry (Aunty Wendy is Dad's sister)

This little dude had the cutest suit on, and to see him charge into this big puddle for a swim in it was hilarious.

Zoe making Maia laugh

Maia takes after my Dads side in lots of ways, I think she and Zoe have similar eyes.

Easter

GOOD FRIDAY
Dean had the work boat booked so took a few of the boys fishing. We went round to his mums where all the kids had a good time playing under the sprinkler. Well Nathan wasn't too sure about it and would only go through with someone else. Kael the waterbaby didn't mind it at all.


SATURDAY

I had a day to myself while the kids stayed with Dean. I went into the city for a look around and to buy my cousin's wedding present. It was great to just take my time looking around. I went for a look through Borders, bought a CD and grabbed a coffee and chilled. Then it was off to the Mall which was pretty packed. With all the shopping getting to me I stopped and got a mean neck and shoulder massage in the mall which gave me the strength to carry on as there was still a dress to buy for the wedding and a few accessories also. Then it was home to my babies who also had a great day. Man I'm going to be doing that more often!! It was great.

EASTER SUNDAY

Nathan and I went to church and left Maia at home with dad to have a sleep. We got home to them chillin outside, so Nathan joined them for an apple and an Easter egg. Later in the afternoon Nanny and Poppa arrived and took over with the kids so we could cruise off to watch the Warriors kick some Eel butt! It was a choice game. Afterwards Fat Freddys Drop played in the supertop, thanks to Vodafone, although they can't have been paid much coz it was pretty short. We bumped into the Tok Crew there too which was awesome to catch up with them out of the blue.









EASTER MONDAY
Went to the Zoo for Cadence's 4th birthday, had a mean feed and a little look around. Dean went fishing again caught the limit again! Got snapper coming out of our ears, can't complain though it's great!!
