2ND WEEK OF THE HOLIDAYS

Monday of the Second week rolled on and it was a 'Picture Perfect' day!  And nearly the whole of that week was.  We didn't do much in the way of spending money but we were at the park nearly every day and we also had cousins come and stay for sleep overs.  Here are some photos that I pinched off Renee's blog of our day at Onepoto Domain.  We had a lovely picnic and the kids rode their bikes around the track nearly all day,  none of them wanted to leave.  The most special thing was that MacKay learnt to ride his two wheeler bike on that very day,  it was so so cool for him.  So him and Niwa spent the rest of the day riding around and around!   We met up again that week for several Mac and Niwa bike riding trips.  They are both big boys now!


See below,  Big boy Mac on his' two wheeler' , 9th of July,  a day in History!




Our little picnic,  Agnus Roding and family, Aunty Nix and kids and Renee and Kids.  Aunty Nix lemon muffins and her dip that day were so YUM!  I got those two recipes thanks very much!

On another cool note, Niwa lost his little police balance bike so we were looking all around for it for ages and we were almost convinced it was gone for good when we decided to stop & say a prayer. Nix, Niwa, Emil & Renee stood around in a little huddle while I said a prayer that we'd be able to find it & as we finished & opened our eyes, there was Arama walking towards us having just found it!!! It was probably the most instantaneous answer to a prayer that I've ever witnessed. It was awesome :)

SPENCE AND NIWA BELOW JUST AFTER THE PRAYER EXPERIENCE!

I hope Renee doesn't mind but I stole her video of Mac riding his bike with only two wheels  for the first time,  I just think it is so cute.
