TODAY: we are off to Hamilton at midday to have a catch up with Amanda and Kelly. This will be the first chance to get a recent photo of all our Grandkids together! All 7 of them right now.
Our next Grandbaby is due in about 12 days!!! Only it's being born in Perth, Australia. So it's unlikely we will get to see him/her for ages.
Travelling to Aussy is just NOT in the budget for a long time sadly.
Hopefully we will be sent MASSES of photos though.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my niece in Melbourne, Australia. I can never forget her birthday, it's always on ANZAC Day! lol
Right, off to make a start on the day...
Well we got to Hamilton... picked up Rena and met up with Amanda, Andrew and kids at the mall... got a few photos of all 7 grandkids (plus Damien who's our bonus grandkid) ... gave the kids an ice cream and headed home.
The drive home was SLOW and TEDIOUS... we got caught in holiday traffic. The trip usually takes about an hour and 10 minutes. Today: 2 and a half hours! At least 3/4ers of the trip was stop/start/crawl along the road.
AND it rained non-stop. So we played 'I SPY'...
It is very interesting playing it with little kids.
Damien: "I spy with my little eye something beginning with 'R'..."
We all guessed lot of things until we gave up.
The answer? GRASS!
So... finally home... feeding the kids chocolate easter eggs for dinner (and a sausage thrown in)... lol.
I'll post more photos tomorrow of the kids ....and of course some of wee Emily.... I am sure she has grown even more adorable in a week!
End of Day: well we had a lovely day ... ended with easter eggs! What more could ya ask for?
lol
DIET: me lips are sealed.
nite nite.
