Family Visiting NZ...

Many in my family have been planning their “trip of a lifetime” since they originally met Amy – long before we got engaged. Now most of them are here – and are enjoying the beautiful country they call “Gods Zone”. Mum & Dad have happily used our new home as “home base” then done some travelling and sight seeing around the South Island. Ian and Jen have safely arrived from their travels in Aussie and again settled into our home – paying for their board by helping John with the house renovations! Mark & Kizzy arrived via China and headed to a rather large hill called Mount Cook. Aunty Sheila & Co landed in Christchurch and are doing a South Island trip before coming back for the wedding. The last of the 12 is my friend Simon who is doing his own world trip – that’s a courageous guy – especially as he’s heading to Fiji! Sadly my sister & family couldn’t make it – but I’ll have to forgive them – as she’s pregnant! Good on ya Mandy! It’ll be the first time my family have had Christmas away from home – and I’m so blessed to have them here with me!
