19 days to go

Today's weather in Brizzy was the pits. Heaps of rain and cold too. Nothing like the sweet 28 degree day we had yesterday.
Tonight Isaiah is staying at our place with Lennox and Nivek has gone to stay with Elliot. Lots of sleepovers this week. Nice and peaceful without my boys fighting.
Tomorrow we are getting Lennox's trousers for the wedding altered as they are size 12 and much too long. Nivek still doesn't have a shirt to wear......fussy lil punk lol.

OMG today I realised that Lennox's passport expires next week so better do something about that tomorrow. For some reason I thought it expired in october. WTF thought I would've learnt my lesson last month when I was stranded and made a last minute dash to Sydney. Lucky Lennox is an Ozzy so it should be easy and faster to get the passport.

Here's my skux guy in his wedding suit. 1 white sock 1 black one lmao

20 days to go

Busy busy today. Both boys had training and we didn't get home till 8. Then dinner, showers and homework.....then open the mail to find that we have the real estate coming tomorrow to fix our pakuru shower so have to do a mission clean of the house before the morning. OMG tired just thinking bout it. Lucky it's friday tomorrow and I can unwind with some nice beers.
Mama and Summers bdays today so happy bday to all. Miss you Ma xoxox Can't even upload bday pics cause I'm on Uncle Ene's lappy and it doesn't have my photos on here. Check hapeta for mama pics.

Today was very exciting cause Veek was on the news. Channel 7 news was filming their school as the 'school of the week' in Brizzy. The camera panned the classroom and caught a good shot of Veeky. I didn't see Lennox though :-(
Xavier is staying at our house the night with Nivek and Lennox is at Aydin's house for a sleepover. FYI Aydin and Xavier are brothers that are the same age as my boys and in the same class as my boys and they are Keri and Nathan's kids(Keri and Nathan are our babysitters/friends).

What else????? Hmmm that's all I think....

And here's Roz and my spunky neph Te Kauri for photo of the day

22 days to go

Today was boring dot com. After work I went shopping with Aunty Kylie to look for wedding attire but realised I'm a fatty mc fat fat and can't fit anything cool and all other awesome clothes were the right style but ugly colours. It was also disappointing so see how 80's ugly clothes are back in and so is velvet......that's a big GROSS DOT COM in my book.
After reading Chloe's blog it has reminded me of how Nivek doesn't like religious education and has even asked me to write him a note to get him out of religious classes. I wonder if he goes to the library with the Jehovah Witness and non believer kids like we used to back in the days.
I was too lazy to cook tea so we had pad khing and fried rice from the thai place up the road. So much for my goal to lose weight for the amazing race lol.

23 days to go

The blog will now also include a daily countdown until we hit NZ then there will be a 5 day break then countdown to something new to look forward to.
Yesterday I forgot to say that after Veek's sad as footy game he was approached by the Qld Maori coach and asked to be part of the devlopment squad. He can't actually play till he's 16 but they're interested in him already. Part of the registration form said tribe and he put Te Arawa then hapu and he said "hell no I'm not hapu" lol. Should've been down for the northland ways and I would've known the answer to that.
Lennox has to make a plate for his school party to welcome the channel 7 news crew. He's gonna make lamingtons(from a packet) and whipped cream cause he loves it and it's easy. 2 thumbs up from me.
Both boys have rostered time on the net as of today cause Veek chats all day on MSN to his many fans/girlfriends and Lennox wastes my usage on stupid games. They're not very happy about it but these are the perks of paying the bill.....I get to invent the rules.

Today was footy day. Both boys lost their games today but Veek's one was a nightmare....58-0 to the other team. So ratshit to watch. After footy we went to DFO to buy Lennox's wedding shoes. He got some hi-top DC's. They're red and black. Nivek was supposed to get a shirt for the wedding but he ended up getting a t shirt instead. Then we came home and watched the mighty vodafone warriors smoke the knights. Then had a gangsta feed of lamb chops, chicken kievs, mashed potatoes, corn, carrots, mushroom sauce and garlic bread. Bit of an odd combo but it was delicious. Back to dumb old work tomorrow........

We have tickets for our journey home next month. Yay!! Tonight we went to watch Step up 3D. The kids loved it but for me it was boring so I had a nap instead. Tomorrow we're going to buy wedding shoes for Lennox and wedding shirt for Nivek. Lennox wants to get chucks so he can be like Uncle Ene.
