The last few weeks....

As you can see from these pictures, we've been having some fun times recently. Our days have not been so monotonous as late, but rather full of excitement and intrigue. We're careening through life not knowing what crazy thing will happen next. Ok, so that might be a slight exaggeration, but life is pretty good right now. Entertaining, anyway.

Last Saturday (22nd September) we hosted an 'Equinox party' in order to mark the passing of the Equinox (not sure if 'passing' is the right way to describe the Equinox, but oh well). The theme was 'dress formal' and amazingly, nearly everyone did. There were a couple of scoundrels that turned up wearing hoodies, but apart from that everyone did as they were told and dressed in their very best...... We spent an entertaining night on our balcony, and christened our new gas tabletop heater - which worked a treat and meant that we were able to eat dinner outside. The wine flowed freely, and we indulged heavily in roast lamb, and numerous desserts, which were all delicious. Later that night, an impromptu gig began - an all ages affair, with Luca (age 5) on drums.

It makes me realise that we should host more parties like this, where everyone can get along and have a good time (and have an excuse to dress up, of course - because lets admit it, that's all part of the fun!)
The weekend before that The Moon Whispers played at the Valve bar, in what was (in my opinion) one of their best gigs ever. The passion and energy they displayed was amazing. They've become really tight as a band, and it shows.
This weekend, I'm off to Christchurch for my cousin's 21st birthday.... which should be an interesting affair. No doubt photos of the beautiful people will follow..... stay tuned!
