October

Leverne and Liz over for dinner

Graham and Kaylene had their friends over from the States who are presently living in China, Geoff and Bonita

My Hubby built me a new arch for the garden, we've just got to get the roses growing on it again:-)

Jess is discovering her green fingers and planting some herbs and veggies:-)

The end result which they'r now enjoying

In the holidays we put a few plants from Grandma's garden into Jess's front garden:-)

We had a wee re-arrange of furniture in their flat:-) 

And finished with a lovely dinner

Lew making his present for Savannah. He made Kingston a Snowboard, Nikita a Wakeboard and I think this one is a Surf board :-)

This is a happy photo of Rob and Junia at their apartment 

We had a family potluck to farewell Scott before he left for the States in the private Dinning Room at the Retirement  Village

Thalia cutting her delicious Oreo dessert

Lew and I went into the city on the Ferry at Labour Weekend to watch some of the World Triathlon Event

Then we went for a drive out in the country for a ride in the MG

We took Ruth to Little and Friday Cafe when she was on her way over to see Jen

Jess and I went to see Mary Poppins

At our potluck at Jo and Irene's. Joseph had just got an electronic organ so Jo and the boys showed us some of their musical talent :-)

Ross came up to pick Ruth up. We went and did the tourist thing  as Ross doesn't usually have time for such things. We went into the Wynyard Quarter

And had a delicious lunch

At the Viaduct

Ross commented that he'd never been up the Sky Tower so we booked to go up for dinner:-) 

I've never seen a tube dished up on your plate before:-)

The City as the sunset

It was very pleasant as we viewed the city going by:-)
