It's been amazing weather this week, I'm starting to get use to not having Uni. I met up with a friend from Uni at mission bay one evening,



We tried the new ice cream place, Kiwiyo, you fill a tub up all sorts of different flavours and then top it off with lollies and fresh fruit, not that mine had any fruit. Very yummy!!




This week the Korean War ships were in Auckland, so I took Marco and Leo for a look, they were very cool!








Marco quite liked the guns


Mr. Leo still a wee cutie,



Look at all my teeth


I'm house sitting for Caroline's mum for the next week, it's a lovely wee villa.




Lovely back garden



Hmmm what a busy week.

Recent happenings

It has been a while but I haven't really had anything to blog about. Not much has changed but anyway.

I dropped my last assignments off at Uni this week, it was a bit of a strange feeling leaving for the last time.


This was the location of the endless hours of study (or not)

My peonies looked amazing while they were out



And even when they dropped all their petals they looked quite lovely



Had another trip to the zoo recently, it's one place I never get sick of, it's different every time.



Cute wee chick on the path



Leo is growing and looks like a little boy now instead of a baby, quite likes my shoes



Today I came to visit boss while Amy and matt were away and made my lunch while I was there. Boss helped


It was a good lunch





That's all, night night.

Such cuteness

Marco and Leo have just been so cute lately.
Leo just loves making noise



The more the better


Tonight I was trying to get off to Uni but Leo just wanted cuddles and Marco was telling me all about his birthday party (which isn't till next year), then went on to tell me that he has a christmas present for me, I told him to look after it till then. When I got home tonight this was on my bed. Guess he couldn't wait till Christmas.



Which was this




He has 'borrowed' his mum's ring to give me, Amy you may get expensive gifts from your kids, but mine are hand stolen and wrapped in tin foil. He's just so cute.

The holidays

We've been having amazing weather here lately, I've had about five weeks holiday from Uni and just started back this week. Here is a few photos from the holidays.

Beautiful day at the Beach in mission bay.



The four kids I look after on Monday mornings, a bit of puddle splashing on the way to play group. Not quite the size puddles that Isaac has.



A trip to a farm in Henderson, awesome cow. You could start up a petting farm Stace, it makes for an awesome day out.



Feeding the goats, sheep, lamas,


Pony rides



Tractor rides



Had to try out my new boots ( I found one pair wasn't quite enough for Auckland)



Today I helped Amy and Matt clean up their job site, it was a little muddy.



Took me awhile to clean them tonight but they are back to shiny in my room again tonight.



That's all for now. Night
