Happy New Year - 2009 !

Wow we are into Day Two of the New Year already... and I'm home alone - Kait is still over at Riversdale with her girlfriend and family (I go pick her up tomorrow - yippee - I miss her). Beck's overnighted at her girlfriends, Hubby has gone for a ride on his 'mistress' (his Triumph Bonneville motorbike) - and I'm home with the radio going, doing a bit of stitching and catching up on my blog .... ah bliss.


Yesterday was our 13th Wedding Anniversary - having been together a total of 18 years - wow where does that time go... Hubby and I wandered down to the recently revamped McCafe in Silverstream for brunch - a nice lazy start to the day. We are not very good at celebrating our wedding anniversary - after googling I've found out it is "LACE" - I don't think hubby would be that thrilled with lace anything as a gift LOL.

We had a wonderful Christmas day with family - they came to ours for a very leisurely BBQ and lazy afternoon - was so lovely to see them. It was rather freaky having nephews and nieces that now have boyfriends/girlfriends that joined us for the afternoon - crickey it really doesn't seem that long ago those same nephews and nieces were just little ones... ooh I felt old for a minute or two LOL. Another great part of Christmas was catching up with my Aunty Witch's son - who I haven't seen for oh maybe 10 years, I was so pleased that he came to join us, and I am sure he had as much fun catching up with the rest of the family.
Love to all
