us in auckland!

then we headed down to visit chris’ friend in snell’s beach. i have to go outside to use the internet. this was much earlier in the day.

right now it’s 1am and i am sitting in the same spot but in the pitch black. yes. very scary. but i wanted the kids to have a post to wake up to! i miss you guys!!!! 🙂 while we’re near the beach, daddy went snorkling. mom watched and read. she’s so adventurous! 🙂

mom made you a message:


and she also gets a huge award for going in creepy scary barn to pose for daddy. 🙂

the trip has been lovely so far…even if mommy forgot her luggage of clothes at home. but she didn’t forget her supplies for class! priorities! haha! good thing grammies and grampies are delivering them tomorrow!
ok. that’s it. more tomorrow. i feel the mosquitos biting. big hugs and kisses!
Hi Jamie, Looks great there. Hope you’ll have loads of fun and I can understand you miss your kids. I think they’ll love your message. Bye from Holland
