School holidays are finally, FINALLY over! Seriously. We are shattered. The beginning of term could not come fast enough! But luckily, we were blessed with some amazing weather!

While we did stay here in town most of the time, we were able to sneak away for a few days and enjoy some love from the Aunty and Uncle a few hours away! Let’s just say we have come home all inspired by their amazing veggie garden!  The boys would grow nothing but radishes if they could!

We trekked out to Kai Iwi Beach and found it to be one of the most beautiful places we had been in a while. It was quiet and completely surreal… and the black sand… Stunning.

And lastly, as a must-do, strawberry picking at Windemere Farms.

2 kgs of strawberries made some lovely smoothies and some great popsicles.!

It was all a lot of fun. I think the boys will remember it for quite a while…

Happy Summer!
