A family birthday

I seem to be slacking already, no real excuse other than life is busy. We seem to be already over half way into the month and no entry made for November as yet! So thought to at least mention my sister in-laws Hellen's birthday at the start of the month and grace this blog with the scrap page made to date so far. Hubby and I decided to make it an extra long 5-day weekend up in Tauranga with reasonable weather to be had. The highlight was the birthday celebration at local Thai restaurant booked out for the occasion and the partying lasted to the late wee hour. Happy birthday Hellen, we hope you enjoyed your night with family and friends, we sure did thanks.

Halloween Party Time

Back again, it's Sunday night here in New Zealand. Thought to better post this as I'm already on the computer and wanted to get at least a photo of the 3 of us up, all be it in costume! We don't celebrate Halloween here, but sure were looking forward to Saturday's bbq invite at Steve & Jade's. Jade being American, from San Diego, sure went out the full hog. I should have known from the party invite 3 weeks ago, that this was an experience to remember. The party house was decked out inside and out, and Jade must have been up till late finishing off the last of the baking. Anyway, we 3 made sure we turned up in costume, one witch, one monster and one scary pumpkin scarecrow! The weather let us down a bit, with the Wellington southerly keeping temperatures some what cool, brrrr. Would you know, the wind died down early evening in time for the local fireworks display, typical!
Our hosts were wonderful of course and sure gave us an experience to remember. Thanks S&J, for a wonderful afternoon/evening.
