Christmas trip to see Mumma 2017

Dad suggested a Hamilton Christmas trip to see Mumma on Thursday to which we all willingly obliged - even though we were a little bit worried about getting stuck in queues and queues of New Years traffic! (turns out we ended up worrying for nothing though cause it was totally free flowing the whole way, thank goodness!)

As soon as we arrived at the cemetery everyone got out and ran to Grandie's car desperate for some treats - cause we all knew he would have them haha ;)

The NZ grandkids with Grandma Julie xxx

Next stop, Wendy's for lunch...

Mac and Indie sat down the end of the table by themselves and had the cutest little time eating 

and communicating together xx

After that it was off to the temple and the visitors centre where the sister missionaries gave the kids a scavenger 

hunt to complete

Jordy didn't want to be in any of the photos but then came back and asked if he could have one with Jesus! Cute Jords x

Snapped these guys checking themselves out in the window lol

And again haha...

This was Spence pushing Indie around in squares lol (the other day when we left Marlborough Park and drove round the block 

Spence exclaimed "Dad why are you driving round in squares!?" haha

Love these two cuties! x

I was the last one following the fam down the hill to the playground and it reminded me of Lehi's dream. 

So ETERNALLY grateful for the family Heavenly Father has blessed me with!

No-one knows why Dad had to ruin the photo with the pink hoodie?!

I called Ella over to test out taking a photo in the pretty flower field and then never got around to calling all the kiddies 

over to get a cuzzie pic :( Definitely next time!

Having fun at the cool new temple playground before heading home

Such an awesome fun filled day with the fam! x
