Happy Birthday Frank!

Frank turned one on 2nd March and we were invited to his pool party...Pre-party entertainment at Granmarg and Grandad's house.

Waiting for the chauffeur.
In the pool.
Getting Frank out of the pool was quite a feat!

Iris and Libby spend some quality time together...

...as do Kate and Phoebe.

Libby's fantastic creation.

The Garden Party

We're playing catch up again - these photos go all the way back to February, when Ma and Pa Campbell celebrated their 11th wedding anniversary with a garden party. Good old Titahi Bay came through with a scorcher of a day and we had a great turn-out of family and friends.Some of the crowds in the "summerhouse".

January continued...

It's taken a while but here are some more pics of summer fun had by the Campbell girls.

We're starting to think Phoebe (aka Tigger) has springs in her feet - bouncing is a favourite past-time.
Her other favourite past-time is smiling...

Rimutaka Rail Trail

We walked to the summit of the Rimutaka Rail Trail from the Kaitoke side - a loooong, slooow incline. Took us a while to make it there and back but we enjoyed the lovely bush and river views and Iris thought the tunnel we walked through was pretty cool.

It's pretty easy-going when you don't have to push!
Proof we made it to the top! We had lunch at the "station".

Iris post-bath, to wash off the dust. Quite a fashion plate in this pic - love the hairdo!

Josh turns 30-something

We had a good turnout for Josh's birthday bbq (shame about the weather!)

Fleur and Barnaby have a beer with Phoebe.
Hayley, Iris and Ella party hard! It was pretty early in the evening for dancing on tables...
Amanda, bump and Phoebe catch up.
Cake cutting time - thanks again to Amanda for yet another great cake.

We just thought this one was cute.

The budding artist

Iris and Granmarg had a wonderful time creating art in the back yard. Grandad has since built a fanastic easel for future artfests.
