our friend Nga from church (left in the picture above with a course colleague) graduated from university today and asked if i could take some photos
i normally say no to doing events as it’s all very stressful, i’m not very good at it and it’s lots of work. but thought i’d make an exception for Ngahuia!
as a result i spent a few hours pretending to be a proper photographer, bossing people about in staircases and outside.
kezia had an 8 hour party at a friends house down a perilous driveway which i had to navigate twice. i guess they do it every day though so i shouldn’t complain
our out door furniture arrived today. jane now has everything she ever wished for in her life: coffee machine, water blaster, outdoor sofa
esther also had a party this afternoon and went with jane this morning to spend prospective christmas money on a violin case
jane has been doing amazing works in the garden and found time this afternoon to pop out for a walk with pearl and her friend Belinda
Nga’s cloak is a genuine maori artifact i believe. i’ll tell you more when i find out the deets – she didn’t want to tell me as she said she’d start crying and ruin her makeup!
