The Big Daddy Giraffe

So we have been very busy in Auckland this week. We have been to Kelly Tarlton's (an aquarium) and to the Zoo. The Auckland Zoo was so cool. We saw them give an elephant a bath, the hippos roll around in the mud, but the coolest thing was that Allie got to feed a giraffe a piece of celery! As Allie would say " I fed a Big Daddy Giraffe at the zoo." It was so cool!

Visit with Nana Latta- Gatt

We had a great visit with Nana. She was so surprised that Justin had come down to see her. She loved the girls and kept saying how "Bonny" Brinley was. She just loved being able to hold her name sake ( Brinley was named after her). We also got to visit Auntie Rose and Michael and Julia. We had an awesome time!

Land of the Long White Cloud

Hello from down under! We finally made it to see the Latta's in New Zealand. We are having a great time. We have been to One Tree Hill where Allie has loved feeding the sheep and looking at all the baby lambs. We, of course, have been to Eve's Pantry. Yummy..... we've eaten our favourite mince pies and sausage rolls! We are just having a fabulous time, so stay tuned as we update our page!

Grandad's Visit

It was so much
fun having Grandad
come visit. He was teaching
Allie a few tricks on the piano. He also gave Brinley lots of cuddles and kisses.
We can't wait to see him again soon!

Brinley's Blessing

Okay, so Brinley was blessed the first weekend in August, but I am just now getting the photos of it. She looked so cute in her blessing dress. It was very nice to have our family here.
