Best day ever!

Bill and I had the most wonderful day yesterday! We celebrated our 9th Wedding Anniversary. Mum looked after the kids from 10am till 3pm while we went up to Auckland to look at our house. They are getting very near completion and I'm starting to get really excited. 27 days to go before move in day! Then we had lunch (at subway) and off to play a game of mini golf together. Bill whipped my butt ... seems I've lost my touch for mini golf lol. We used to play all the time while we were dating and had a trophy plate that we handed back and forth depending on who won. But he well and truelly won yesterday.

Then had a magnum icecream before heading back to Hamilton to pick up the kids. Relaxed for a bit at home then dressed up for dinner while mum came over again to look after the kids. Went to a restaurant where you get your meat/veges that you want, put the marinate you want and give it to someone who cooks it up for you infront of everyone. Was a great idea in that you got exactly what you wanted and knew there was nothing bad in there (like fat)

Then for dessert they cooked pancakes on another hotplate while you watched and you got to put your chosen syrup and icecream on top.

It meant I didn't go too high in points yet had a really enjoyable dinner.

Then we went for a stroll down by the river and headed off to a friends place who was house sitting a mansion for coffee!! Really nice house ... wow!! 6 bedrooms and amazing gardens! Then headed home. Huge day but a fantastic one!!

This Saturday is Malachi's 6th birthday and we're taking him to Candyland then out to lunch. He mentioned 6mths ago that he would love to go there so we're going to surprise him.

The month after Christmas is filled with celebrations with New Years, my birthday, wedding anniversary, malachi's birthday. Fun but have to be so careful with the overeating. Got through the first 3 without too much damage on the scales ... let's hope the last one is just as good. Luckily I'm not too much of a sweet tooth. Tend to be tempted more by the savory things.

I've started sorting out our stored boxes in the garage and have been chucking things out. I've filled up a trailer load already. Can't believe I shifted all that stuff down here from Auckland in the first place lol. But as a friend pointed out I am obviously ready to part with those things now that I wasn't able to when we moved here 6mths ago. Funny how priorities change when you don't use something for that long.

Busy day ahead with work, work, work.
Catcha all
