Hiya Sarah - was it really that long ago? How time flies when you're having fun eh?

4 years for us in Sept!

Glad to hear you've been doing so well and happy.

Where Has The Time Gone? Now I can't believe the seventeen years anniversary is coming up in four months and it feels just like yesterday...."Touch down" at Auckland Airport for the first time... (It was windy, cloudy, and warm ish ) though I had spent quite a bit of time in the UK during that time...

I wish you continued happiness...

Likewise for us too- 4 yrs this October. Still loving it, not once have we had any regrets.

Congrats and all the best to the "Old timers" hereabouts and thanks for all the help/advice Sarah that stood us in good stead when we followed you over.

Thanks!!! Its gone pretty quick.... my parents have been over twice and OH's parents came out this year..... they all love NZ and think we are lucky to live here.

I have owned my beautiful horse 1 year now too.... I got him the first weekend in June last year, I remember it was still sunny and warm, then July and August it seemed to rain non-stop so I couldnt ride him anyway.

Not a lot to update you with, we are busy with the kids all the time, Thomas going to school now and Hayley still home with me but enjoying all her groups. Maybe one day we will get to explore more of NZ... will look forward to that!

....oh, and we keep talking about doing the Citizenship thing but still havnt got round to it!
