christmas eve

LOTS of rain so not much happened other than domestic pottering.

In the afternoon Kezia and i went to the wholesalers to get some xmas snacks. we accidentally bought lots of maltesers.

Jane picked up Esther from town as she came back from Matt’s house then we all went to a rather random church service at our church, which i took some pictures of (see below)

After that we had some dinner then watched a Christmas film before heading in to Auckland through a thickest of rain to go the catherdral of midnight mass. It was good, though quite long, with lots of incense and chanting. just what we needed to accompany the wet!

It was so wet when we drove there that it looked like all the city lights were off as we couldn’t see anything through the thick rain!

here’s the photos of our church service:
