Our first wedding anniversary.

Craig and I last year on our wedding day.

Wow I can't believe it's been a year since Craig and I walked down the aisle and became husband and wife. Last weekend (24th November) we started our celebrations with a family BBQ dinner at our place. It was nice to catch up with our family and we were spoiled with gifts which were totally unexpected. We got a beautiful bunch of peony roses, my wedding bouquet flowers and my all time favorite! We headed to Akaroa where we hired a beautiful cottage built in 1868. It was so sweet and set up in fantastic garden of roses etc. We had a dinner at one of the waterfront cafes sitting outside overlooking the harbour. The weather was brilliant , in fact on Sunday it must have been in the 30C's it was sooo hot! Mum and Guy popped over on Sunday for lunch and we sat out in the lovely garden and enjoyed the scenery. It truly was a great first anniversary.

Well it's about time I caught up with my blog, this time of year life just flies by!! We have been away are few times over the past few weekends. A few weeks back we travelled to Dunedin with my sister and finance for the night. It was a fun trip and we thoroughly explored Dunedin, even though we were only there for a short time. We went to see Baldwin Street (the steepest street in the WORLD!) , there were taxis taking tourists up it like a theme park ride! hehe We decided to get tough and not only get a picture from the bottom but from the top also. Yup you got it, we walked up! It wasn't to bad actually, mind you there was an older man running up and down it while we slowly climbed it! NUTTY!! We headed out to St Kildas, gosh it's a pretty cool beach. Really pretty! We stopped at Moeraki boulders on the way home and got some cool photos of us with the crazy boulders. It was a good trip but we were knackered when we got home. I did get to stop at the craft shops along the was. My sister was amazed at how long I could spend in one shop, she ain't seen nothing I was being good! hehe
