Christmas Day

The Howes family spent Christmas in Blenheim with Lloyd and Anna,

We had a fantastic day, starting with Champaigne and Bar-B-Que,

A walk to the river with a picnic of nibbles and a swim,

Followed by an evening of relaxation and enjoying each others company.

Bradley, Lloyd and Logan,

Just what are those three boys up to?

We left Bradley in Wellington and picked up Logan on the way to Lloyd's.

Bradley followed on Christmas Eve.

Anna and Lloyd were still working so we kept ourselves busy during the day.

Bicycles and wine trails can be fun.

The scenery around Lloyd and Anna's house was spectacular.

Golden hills, wild flowers mixed with warm days and cool evenings


The Christmas day trek to the river for a swim.

Ruth was keen to try out the fire poi
It went well until the poi collided.

Logan seemed to get the idea very quickly.

Anna was very clever,

Even trying some tricks.

Zena enjoys life with Lloyd and Anna.

She still grabs the lead and takes herself for a walk.

A dog that was proud of her Christmas present.

She did not know what to do with it.

But she was keen to bury it for later.

Lloyd and Anna,

They did a great job of playing host,

Thanks you two!

We are so proud of you both.
