I'm off to a first aid course today, so am able to sneak onto the computer for a few minutes lol. It's been a nice weekend here. Friday saw the arrival of our old neighbour and good friend Chrissie, whom we spent some time catching up with, sharing dinner etc before dropping her off to a dog show on Saturday. Donna and I headed off after that to buy Danny a kennel - it's now getting to hot for him to be inside for too long so I'll spend time over the upcoming term break getting him used to it for short periods of time. Tui thinks it's pretty cool, makes me think of the kids book 'My cat likes to hide in boxes' - I know mine sure does lol.
Sunday we popped down to the river for a few hours accompanied by a picnic and a few drinks to watch the jet boats hoon by. That was fun, probably more fun for Lyall than Donna and I, but fun all the same. In between all this, Lyall has been busy finishing off (and starting a few more!)jobs around the house. Don't get me wrong, he isn't one of those blokes who never finishes a job, he always does, but when you need to get stuff delivered you may as well get it all delivered at one time, hence the finishing of a couple of jobs and the starting of another couple. We also met another 'neighbour' (lives a few houses up the road, up a long drive), who came over with banana cake and yams for us, so that was really nice. She has two lovely boys, one of whom thought Danny was the coolest thing since slied bread. I even managed to complete a layout in amongst all this, and it's one I really really like. Must get my act together and get it uploaded as it's for the Scrappin Patch multi photo challenge. Am also teaching Donna to do an OTP Christmas project, so our lounge looks like a tip at the moment.
Donna gave Danny a bath yesterday, so there's a little snap of him with his drowned rat impersonation lol. Have a great week everyone.

What a wee scruffy he is. LOL. Yay for the holidays - just might need a wee trip out to see all these changes round the place. LOL
Yes a holiday catch-up sounds on the cards! can't believe they are almost here actually. Hope the kennel is big enough for both the babies!LOL
A bath!!?! We doggies HATE baths!! LOL!
They look so hilarious when they're completely wet.
Danny is such a cute little guy! :-)
Sounds like a great weekend. I'm also looking forward to the holidays (even if I do still have to work).

Awww Danny looks so cute covered in soap suds. Enjoy that course today. Sounds like you need a vacancy sign at your place too. Like you I like having friends and family stay.

Growing up, we had a sidney silkie who looked like that when Mum bathed him - a drowned rat, haha ;)
Looks like a beautiful day down there
Shame those jet boats weren't a little further South ... I would have been on the river bank watching them as well ... awesome to watch.
Love the ratty looking half wet thing ... cute pic!!!
What a gorgeous photo of Danny - can you use that in one of your layouts, I can think of a few good captions that would go with it :0)
sounds like you had a brilliant weekend, hope there wasn't too much alcohol with the picnic!
Take care
