Happy Monday :)

Sunday

Good morning all! Happy Monday! Good weekend? Mine was busy, busy, busy as usual but good, good, good at the same time. Spent Saturday afternoon curling my sister's beautiful long blonde locks and doing her makeup for her last ever school ball (will post pictures tomorrow), then stayed to watch the All Blacks beat the Wallabies (again), winning the Bledisloe Cup (again) with my parents. Was kinda weird saying "I should go home now" once the game was over, but a cool feeling all the same.
Yesterday I wrote some of my novel! Which led to a discussion about grenades, cannons and landmines with dad and Joshua last night when we had my family round for dinner. Very excited to be making some headway, and it's all thanks to the wonderful comments on this post from you lovely people. I've also promised a friend in America I will send him part one of my novel at the end of the year, so I'm getting it done man!

Happy Monday :)

My what a weekend it has been! I feel like I need another weekend just to get over this one - I mean, I love being busy, but sometimes I just wish for a weekend where there is absolutely nothing on; a weekend that is sunny of course; one that we can spend lazing on the beach. Lucky for us it's spring in less than two weeks! The light is already lasting longer at night... bring on daylight savings!
On Saturday my brother and his girlfriend came back from a trip overseas - she had been gone three months, he was gone for five weeks - and we welcomed them back with a very kiwi weekend (quite unintentionally - the kiwi stuff just kinda happened...) We had a barbecue with both families, drank some beer and some wine, played Pictionary, then watched the All Blacks beat the Wallabies. Then on Sunday we had roast lamb and I made Lemon Meringue Pie, which was pretty darned amazing for a first attempt, and they showed us their photos - yes I was jealous (I've been trying very hard not to be, telling myself "it will be your turn soon") It was great to have them back and hear their stories, and it has definitely made Joshua and I think more about our own trip, which will be happening in 2014.
So what did you get up to this weekend friends? Have a lovely week! xo
