Wet and wild in Wellington.......



Friday was a "teacher only day" last week so I had a lovely extra day with the boys. I took them to Story Time at the Library and then for a coffee and play around before meeting Adrian for lunch.

Saturday we headed into town to arrange some boys birthday surprises and and then took the boys to the city art gallery to make some stars for the Matariki (Maori New Year) celebrations so we added their beautiful stars next to all the other 100's (see Adrian's 3D creation in the middle - I didn't put his age on his!).

We had a great Saturday night as it was our inaugural "Saturday night family Movie Night" which was a real hit. We chose Shrek 2 and had popcorn and all snuggled in to watch it. The boys were so excited and have been asking "when do we have movie night again?".

Sunday morning Adrian took the boys for a wet run around Makara Beach and to look at all the wet animals and flooded paddocks. They also tested the 4WD in the flooded roads (glad I wasn't there to panic), before we headed to a local mall for lunch and to look at some birthday presents for the boys which they thought was a brilliant idea.

Pic below taken by Adrian now explains why the boys no longer have pants in their trousers!
