great news. dad and marjorie are back (for a few days at least!)
we’ve been hearing some of the stories and looking at the photos, but i’m sure there’s lots more stories to come. but you’ll have to ask them personally when you see them as the highlights unfortunately aren’t going to appear here
meanwhile in simpson-land, i was at work by 7am and i think jane spent the day doing tidying etc
kezia and esther both had swimming after school. and kezia went for a swim before her swimming lesson too
dad took some pictures when he wasn’t meant to on the plane judging by these. don’t tell anyone
they got a taxi from auckland airport to my office where they ended up sitting in reception watching the working world go by for an hour until i finally came down to collect them.
there my desk below. top right of the picture
whilst kezia was swimming me and the olds [they are watching me type this – was expecting a swipe round the ear) went for a walk along takapuna beach and a look at the volcanic reef which was mostly under water
here are some lollies from a tin at work
and this is pearl who was very excited to have our visitors back. marjorie seems to have got braver around her since coming back. she’ll be taking her for a walk by monday … perhaps.
and family dinner.
