Christmas in The Big Smoke:
The Gang's first ever trip to Rainbow's End.hubby and i have great teenage memories
of The Log Flume Ride lol
these guys all *loved* the Fear Fall and went on it again and again.
Little Miss Sunshine
the whole crew went to Devonporton the bus and the ferry and Shank's Pony.
ferry ride
the higher up the mountain,the greener grows the grass...
view from the top of Mt Victoria, Devonport
looking across to Rangitoto,our childhood mountain island
spying out the land: D18's new digs for 2008
J11 found a grand piano
walking across Grafton Bridge
walking across Grafton Bridge
big bruvva, little bruvva
i would walk five hundred miles(guess the song lyrics)
*sold*yeah, he's mine.
The New Year in The Sunny Bay:
"say, cheese"(it took about five billion tries
to get this one shot,
gosh Ken, you kept us giggling)
poseurs
pouncersjust an aside: Louise and i floated down this stream in tyres, i assed out! and have bruised my shoulder and scratched various parts of my anatomy (everybody chorus, "Poor Katie!")
it's ok Dad, i didn't lose my glasses (i've lost countless pairs of specs over the years jumping off waterfalls, tumbling in the surf, but i do like to see you know)
roll out the barrell
"Watch out for that TREE!!"(guess the movie line)
"R-A-W-R!!!"
told ya my toenails are cute Xand thus ends the photofest.
there are a billion more wonderful memories besides (except Christmas day. i was sick-as-a-dog on Christmas day. huge ups to my dahling mum and dad who canned their plans and nursed me and J11, we were all devastated to miss the Christmas party with Hubby's rellies), but my brain is so blonde and my pilates is calling me so i ain't gonna write 'em.
i don't traditionally make New Year's Reso's, cos they only last two weeks. but i think i'll break with tradition and say: "i won't willingly have a two week hiatus from blogging again."
*grin*
Happy New Year to you and yours.
here's to finding the *sparkle* in every day in 2008.
