Easter weekend

 I hope you had a wonderful Easter weekend, we certainly enjoyed our four day break.

We started the weekend with a very wet day on Good Friday, the tail end of Cyclone Tam, which had seen quite rough weather and flooding up the top of the North Island and Auckland. The rest of the weekend the weather was very warm and sunny. We spent our break working on some projects around home, catching up with family, a day out to Napier and just enjoying being around home.

We were treated to some yummy Easter goodies on Thursday morning at work. 

 It was a beautiful day on Saturday, just perfect for strolling around Napier, browsing the shops and enjoying our favourite Starbucks drinks.  Lots of people out and about enjoying the sunshine. 









We had a Jamieson family barbeque on Saturday evening and had a fun night catching up with Paul, Jude and the girls.

Of course we enjoyed some Easter treats!



Hannah's annual Easter basket, minus the new pj's she was already using lol.


We enjoyed our "cheese" o'clock on Easter Sunday after a day of gardening and other outside jobs. I cleaned the greenhouse out and emptied some of the vegetable gardens, all ready for winter. 


Glenn finished the new raised rose garden so a few new plants purchased and planted in the garden. 


My niece Zoe came home for a few days to stay with my parents so it was super lovely to catch up with her, and her Dad, my brother Marcus, came to stay too. I'm so proud of Zoe and her partner Dylan - they have recently purchased and moved into a new home, and Zoe has also changed positions at her current workplace, so busy times for her.  Diesel just loves Zoe and gives her lots of smoochy hugs whenever she comes to our house. 


This week has been zooming by, public holiday Monday, three days to work, another public holiday on Friday for ANZAC Day. I had thought about taking some time off  but I decided to wait until the next lot of holidays in July as we have bit of a holiday adventure planned, more about that another time!

Thanks for stopping by, see you soon x
