The first arrivals of December were Mom, then Omega, Alex and our Tau. Nani Jacqui and Eric arrived shortly after, then the last wave included Cherelle, Paul and the Sapatus (Vetti and Yvonne).
Jacqui and Eric took Maeva to Rotorua for the day, and all had a good time despite the bad weather.
Omega, Tau and Alex joined us here in Hamillton at a local restaurant where the boys had massive steaks.
On the 23rd Dec, 5 carloads of people headed out to Onemana, on the Coromandel to kickstart our bach holiday.
The rest as they say, is ummm way too much to write about.
it was great having my family together, well some of them for a change.
even better, it was even better seeing my mom have a holiday and not be busy with everyone elses dramas.
overall, great times, great food, great memories and the kids were showered with presents.
Definitley need a repeat!
