Instalment #4: Ferry to Waiheke

Dad, Mum, Darryn, Denise, Eldon and I and Rhys took the car ferry to Waiheke on Thursday, the day before the wedding. It was rotten weather...windy and raining and awful...we didn't hold out much hope for a sunny wedding day.

Rhys loved climbing up and down the stairs on the ferry

Going round and round on the swivel chairs

"Are we there yet?"

You can see the wonderful weather we were having as we pulled into Waiheke

Instalment #3: Bridal Shower

The Bride-to-be on her throneThe "beautiful" dress Denise and I bought for her


Lovely flower arrangement by Denise and the purple cake (made with lots of food coloring!)

We had a tea party style shower with purple and silver for colors

The boys showed up at the end and we just couldn't keep them apart...

Instalment #2: Visiting Rohan and Michelle and littlies

I had a really nice day visiting Rohan and Michelle and their little family (although not so little anymore!). Unfortunately, I got away without any photos of them!!! I did get some nice pics of Rhys around their property...it was such a beautiful day that day!

"Look, Mom, I found this really cool mower and it has wheels!"

Our budding mechanic...

Trip to NZ for Roz and Mike's Wedding: Instalment #1

Ok folks, I have a bunch of pictures to blog and I know some of you are (im)patiently waiting for the wedding photos!! I will do my best to get these done as fast as possible...I just can't bring myself to do them out of order! :) So you'll have to put up with some photos of Rhys beforehand!!!

New addition to our meeting

This is Tim and Danielle, some of our friends in Mt Isa. They have a new baby, Eva and she is adorable!!!

Rhys loves dogs and isn't the least bit afraid of them. Tim and Danielle have two dogs, a yellow lab and a new rottweiler puppy, Bruce. Rhys was so taken with him, he wanted to get right down and touch his nose, as you can see!!
