Emily, Katie and Saro

The girls playing Kubb

Every night we played the same game "name in the hat".

Ellie and Alex on our walk to see the Pinnacles.

Katie, Saro and Emily enjoying the bath.

Becs and Christine drove out from Wellington and Jen came over for lunch.

Lovely to have a full table.

We sure missed Jo but she was having a great time with Lucy and Sashi.

Tablelands!!

On our way to the farm - only Chloe rode with me! Meggie took her car and the other girls rode with Daddy in the van (better radio) so it was just me and my dog.

 

We are so lucky to be staying here - Rob and Liz were away for Easter so we got to spend our two-week break in this beautiful place instead of the construction zone at home.

Ellie had her friend Alex out for a week and we celebrated her birthday again with Alex and Laura.

The girls had fun with water balloons.

Ellie's cake.

Picked food out of the garden for lunch.

Those grapes were AMAZING.

Dad's hungry.

The girls had a bath in every tub on the farm.

Pete and Suz joined us for dinner, it was a very fun night.

Meanwhile Katie was having fun at Easter Camp

And Josie was in Taupo with Sashi. Meggie stayed in Wellington to go to a party.

Walking through the property

And delicious coffee

Ellie and Alex hunting Easter Eggs.

Ellie's Birthday

Dinner the night before at Ellie's favourite restaurant because she had a hip hop showcase on the night of her birthday. Missing Meggie :(.

And of course gelato for dessert.

Parental selfie. 

On her birthday she and Lauren and Anise went and got pedicures.

And hot chocolate.

Then it was the showcase - Ellie on the far right.

Josie far right in the back dancing.
