Time to Go Home

Well both cars were packed to the brim, it was time to say good-bye to Janni and the family and head on home..

With the kilometers racing on by, the beautiful landscapes ever changing out of my window,

Kenzie Mae, was as happy as a lark, with her drawing pad, and munchies (the big girls were travelling with Dawn behind us)

I could let my mind wonder and re-live the wonderful memories made over the last two weeks.

Our last day was spent, having fun quality time. Ian, Brett and Dawn took the bigger girls out for the morning, first to go-carting, and then to the super tubing fun park.

While Kenzie slept, Jan and I spent a bit of time behind the sewing machine. That was fun, teaching Janni to sew. I am sure that she will be posting pic's very soon on her blog

After Kenzie woke it was her turn to spend a little time in the pool 'fimmimg' as she says :)

We ended off our holiday with a sushi feast, provided for by our precious Mommy darling!

What better way to top off the evening, than with one of Brett's fantastic milkshakes for the girls, and Dom Pedro's for the adults!

Thank You Janni and Brett, for such a special holiday!!

I have returned home, feeling revived and refreshed. I am excited to see what this year holds!

Lotsa love

A Day Spent in Jeffrey's Bay

We all decided that today was the day to visit J-Bay. It is a 45 minute drive from Jan's house.

 Ian has really been looking forward to this visit. Jeffrey's is his most favourite place in the Eastern Cape...

After we set up camp, it was time for a swim,

Me, I was nice and comfy in my chair (^^,)

Then we grabbed a bite to eat,

Yay, now it's time to stroll along the beach and hunt for shells,

Ewww!! Gross!!! A jellyfish.

Okay, back to the hunt...

Yay, we found loads of treasures!

On our walk back, I turned back and saw Ash and Tianna in deep conversation, these two darlings have such a precious relationship. Their love for each other runs very deep!

And ahead of me, Kenzie and HER Daddy (^^,)

After a very relaxing morning we all hopped in the car to take advantage of the outlet surf shops! Oh yes! We scored some major bargains!!

After a successful shopping adventure it was time to say TTFN to J-Bay, and head back to P.E.

Once we got home, the big girls, took a little time out, and we shared a cuppa and slice of cake at a quaint little coffee shop, topped off with more shopping...of course!! LOL

Our holiday is fast coming to and end! This was such a special day, jam packed with so many beautiful memories made and shared.

Lotsa love

Getting Off to a Flying Start

I cannot think of a better way to start off the year, than to be treated to a helicopter ride (^^,)

Well first we had to push the chopper out of the hanger,

First up was the girls...

And they're off!!

Time to land,

What fun!!!

My turn,

What a spectacular view, on this magnificent day!

Feet back on the ground, and time to put the chopper back in the hanger (^^,)

What a wonderful memory

Ahhh, I am so blessed! I have a huge grin on my face!

Lotsa love

Wonderful Summer's Day

Pure bliss (^^,)

Happy New Year

Our tradition for Old Year's Eve is a prawn braai (BBQ)...

Ian and Brett were in charge of the very important task of cooking to prawns to absolute perfection! (Don't you just love the apron teehee!!)

They did a superb job!

Champers ready...

Shew, it's a tough job staying awake till 12!!

But we made it!!

Happy New Year!!

I pray that this will be spectacular year, filled with many wonderful opportunities to make wonderful memories. Time to live, laugh and learn, and to work on the legacy that we want to leave!!

I was woken this morning, by precious cuddies from Kenzie and Cosmo (^^,)

Thank you Jesus!! I am forever grateful!

Lotsa love
