Photos from granny and papa's visit

Just a few more photos from while Granny and Papa were around...

Trying out the new sand pit. Serious business. Thanks Lawrence for the sand!


Papa pushing Ginny.

The house and gardens at Bushy Park on our way home on Monday from Wanganui.




The view back toward Wanganui and Taupo.
Fern.

Sheep.....
At Bushy Park Monday morning before coming home. A lovely old house and nature reserve and gardens. We enjoyed the peaceful setting and gardens a lot - so much that we had a picnic lunch!


Our lovely holiday house...




At the tower of some kind in Wanganui.... I dunno, it was a tourist thing.... I wasn't really interested.... hahaha
At the holiday house after a quick spa - too hot for granny, we were all VERY toasty afterwards.

After a slide with Mummy at Kowhai Park in Wanganui.


On the dino slide. Love it.

He got up here all by himself - in fact nearly everything he does by himself at Parks these days and does not want help! His confidence has increased so much!

Look how chuffed she is to be here -
Trying to get a nice one of both of them... impossible I tell you!


The ducks out our back verandah that came walking around Saturday morning in Wanganui...

Owie getting ready to play cards - he learnt to play switch!

Both tuckered out on the way to Wanganui... such peace and quiet!


In the forrest

We went to Mt Bruce to visit the Kiwi exhibit and see the birds and what not... wasa lovely Thursday afternoon. Sun even came out most the time.


At the Kiwi exhibit...
The reason Owen was not in that photo... He needed his own photo with the sign despite not wanting to be in the first one...

The new sand pit was a pretty big effort... ripped some bushes out (Owie loved helping Papa use the saw!) and then had to go to Mitre 10 about 3 times...

Getting in the way really...
"Helping"
The old little one looks a bit pathetic next to the new construction!

Using a man's drill - no, its not plugged in!

Lawrence came with a load of wood and everyone was hands on to stack it on the pile - big and little boys included!

Unloading wood, helping the MEN.
At Carols (and Pauls!!). A usual Thursday.

She loves Jazzy so much. We are sad that he is sick and might not be round much longer :(
