Half way through our trip we decided to go to Rotorua for one night. I was really surprised at how much there is to see and do there. We only had 2 days so we packed a lot of action into each day. When we arrived we checked into our hotel and headed straight for …
On February 4th we got on an airplane to Auckland New Zealand. We arrived on the 6th! So right there we lost a day? I guess we got the day back when we came home. This was our first trip back to New Zealand since we moved to California and got married back in 2011. …
Well five days ago Emmett turned 4 years old. I remember always saying I can’t believe he is a certain age, but this year it feels like he should be four ha ha. It feels like I have been a mom for four years! Maybe having two children makes you feel more like a mom? …
