Beautiful weekend

The good news is, this mum survived 5 days and 4 nights alone with her 2 active kids! So, daddy dearest wanted to make up for lost time by bringing us on a long weekend trip to Wanganui and to see the West Coast. When I was planning for the weekend and booking the hotel, the weather forecast said that it would be a cold, wet and gloomy weekend. We decided we'd just go by faith and enjoy our family time together. By the grace of God, the weather was perfect. It was even warmer than we'd expected! We had a great time. The highlight of our trip was going up Mt Taranaki, seeing Dawson Falls, and the one and a half hour trek through a trail while covered in clouds. The best bit was on the way out of the trail, che K was voted the best downhill walker of all time, jumping over roots and muddy patches. Such a change from the grouch we had on the way in who even pretended to sleep on daddy's shoulder so that she could be carried. 

The better news is still to come!!!
