Two really special things happened this stormy, rainy week in Wellington.



The first was the boys getting their first pair of gumboots. It was a momentous and exciting occassion, all the way to the "Warehouse" the boys kept up a chorus of "new gumboots" from the back seat and then after trying on a million pairs the decision for both was "piderman, piderman" they don't actually know who Spiderman is, but they were very determined that's what they wanted (I did wonder if they'd had a sneaky chat to their cousin Elise on what to choose!). The rain hasn't let up for most of the week so we had a lot of puddle splashing and running through mud, all good fun.

The second exciting thing was that my Uncle Karl and Aunty Val were in Wellington for the weekend from Invercargill and we had great fun catching up together and the boys loved having all the extra attention. Karl helped Adrian put up the swing set and slide, much to the delight of the boys and Val spent most of the weekend helping me with my mountains of washing, much to the delight of me (it's fun holidaying with the Sealy-O'Donnells!).

We've finally got the last of the house things unpacked, Adrian even managed an hour tiyding up his garage today (he was in his element - he says he was in his garage!). We've also finally got with the 21st century and are on broadband so will be working out how to do the webcam thing as soon as we can.

Have a great week all :0) Pictures of the house below:
