Jennie's Vacation (December 2 - 21, 2007)

Our Jennie, a "Top Insurance Industry Employee!"



- On Mount Eden yet again
- First night in the new flat (Jenn helped us move)
- Jode and Jenn at Princes Wharf
- The creepy santa on Queen street
















Pizza from HELL!!! For those of you who have been here, you KNOW!!! Soooo good...the one on the right has gherkins on it!



Our night out in Aucks, with Becs, her sis Emma, and we were eventually joined by Becs' boyfriend Nick and his crew...what a beautiful and becoming transformation we made over the night, maybe one too many jagerbombs. Gets ya every time, not that we do that often...











See Moms, we take care of each other!



And finally, the aftermath at where else? DENNY'S!!!






So there are about 500 pics from that night, we just picked a few prized few, and there some more below under Karen's post. Seriously, these were the nice ones...its just best that we keep that kinda thing off of the internet. And apologies to any of our under-age blog fans...do not try this at home.

Enough of those shananingans, her we are again at Lisa's Party on the farm...

- City slickers, "what do you mean you put the food in the dirt?"
- No pictures please
- Good 'ol NZ box wine
- Our transformation into "EELING" gear






Yes, eeling! Apparently a country kiwi classic event. Jenn, Jode and Tawn geared up and joined Kiwi's 10 year old nephew Jacob and his pals on an adventure into the countryside in complete darkness. The goal of the expedition was to scour the the little ravines around the farm for eels and catch them with that stick with a hook. Everyone at the party thought we were crazy, but we had a blast, those kids got skills!! Those are real slippery and evasive little suckers, and yes, they bite, and yes, people eat them.






Up next, photos of our trip to Taupo, Rotorua, and Tauranga!!!

Heh ther girls, Jodi I didn't see anything about you bungey jumping or are you the photographer?? The weekend here was nice, actually melting so that was great!! Lindsay said that Karen is going back to NZ again so you must have had a blast. Linz talked to her at soccer last night and there was only 8 girls against 16 on the other team (some of which were biotches I guess) and our girls beat them 2-1. Linz was pumped about that and damn stiff today!!! Anyway, I always enjoy the blog and I noticed you are meeitng peeps from Dunedin which is where that boy I met 27 years ago lives with his family!! His name was Malcolm Hendry and his wife's name was Jenny. Wouldn't it be so cool if those peopl your meeting actually knew of him. I have no idea how big Dunedin is, probably as big as Edmonton so that would be ridiculous but weird things do happen. Anyway, don't work too hard and enjoy the summer!! We'll caht again soon, Love Lor
