LOOK, THE FAMILY ARE HERE:

Another beautiful day with hardly a cloud in the sky - but a bit breezy.

Several members of the family are here because I'm lucky enough to have another granddaughter (Sarah) being married in the Maungawera Valley tomorrow with a BBQ organised for Valentines Day. The family arrived after lunch with all the pre-prepared food for the occasion - meat & oodles of salads etc. which they have put in my walk-in coolroom. It is such a boon at times like this ! It is the first time I've seen Nicola & Brad (who were married in the garden in October) who have come back from Port Douglas, especially for the wedding. Nicola & Sarah are sisters. That is my daughter by the green car.

It has been a gathering of the clan; happy family times.
