Phew, we made it! Gone is the year of the renovation, and hello to a relaxing 2013. That was Brendan's resolution for the entire year, to just sit. The past few days have been lovely; eating alfresco on our new terrace, day trips to the beach, a ferry ride, skipping (a resolution to get more fit and less jiggly at home). And for an upcoming week away in Hawkes Bay (just us girls) we almost contemplated driving the five plus hours but a recent overnight stay elsewhere which equated to a drive just over an hour almost wrecked the girls. Actually, Audrey's very good (plentiful food helps a great deal). It's Lucy asking 'how much further' every five minutes, and declarations of boredom that sealed the fate of a plane ride there. As my mother always used to tell us 'a bored person is a boring person'. I am my mother now for I told Lucy that very same thing.
A very, very happy new year to you all. Make it magical.
Happy New Year to you too Catherine. I hear ya - we got back today from Hawkes Bay after a VERY long car journey with 3 kids flying would of been a better option! Actually we went to the Lolly shop today and I went past Falkirk which I recognised from your blog :-) Anyway have a great time in the bay x
ReplyDeleteHow funny, we're planning a visit to that little lolly cottage shop next week! And how cool you recognised Falkirk.
