October – The first holiday (long weekend) in ages.
I was off the Christchurch for 2 days before the long weekend to the annual PMINZ conference (that’s the New Zealand Project Management Institute conference) for work. It provided some food for thought and had some good speakers. (If you’re interested let me know and we can have a chat).
Anyway, Amanda, Lyla & I all went down to Christchurch to have a holiday. We caught up with Dick, Erica and their new addition to the family, 5 week old Micah (he’s so small, Lyla was that size only 9 months ago!). All are well and we all managed to get out to Springfield to see their new house under construction (only 4 weeks away the builder tells them). Must admit, a house in the country appeals.
Also caught up with Griff, Tarsh and Aiden for brunch in the Port Hills before heading to Akaroa for a holiday. Lyla had here first go on a swing and we tried out my Father’s day pressie, a Macpac Possum with a 3 hour bushwalk. We all survived the walk, must remember to watch out for low hanging branches otherwise Lyla’s head might get taken off.
Also managed to catch up with Toby and Rach who were having a party that weekend. The party looked like fun and think it was going be an all nighter by the looks of things. I’m sure I could of handled the party but not sure how long it would take to recover nowadays (at least 2 days I reckon!)
We stayed with Amanda’s, Aunty Pam, whose little dog “Louie” loved Lyla and decided to share his dog biscuits with her. Lyla decide they looked tasty too.
Lyla has started swimming lessons and seems to be enjoying them, check out the photos
Buenos Dias Amigos
