Earthquake day was surprisingly sunny so I snapped these shots and stitched them together into panoramics – they’re a bit rough but you get the idea!

Ok, I love Twitter…..a lot. On a bad day of bad things happening in little ol New Zealand, there are still some funny bastards on twitter that literally made me laugh out lo….. {you get the rest}
@MaowreeDeaker (this guys name just cracks me up – kiwi joke) on the 7.1 earthquake that struck Christchurch today and has been rumbling aftershocks off continuously

Random on the 6.1 earthquake that hit Tonga 1.5hrs ago:
and finally just a general funny;
Goodnight, hope you and yours are safe wherever you are xxxx
Ethan was invited to be a Very Special Kid Photographer for the Auckland Museum so they can gain some insight into how child visitors experience their exhibits. He was brief and concise – Final recommendations were more shark, less boar.







No inspiration. Winter you are failing me! Blogging is tres hard at the moment, but there seems to be a general consensus about this across the NZ blog spectrum so I’m not feeling too neglectful. So, in honour of having nothing to say, I present you with some photos of below average quality because I have also just realised I haven’t taken one picture on my DSLR this whole month! Gasp. WTF?

The Jack luck appears to be a genetic thing, Ethan's name got pulled from the prize barrel on Studio 2 last week and he won a PSP + Game! Amaze.

The weather has been perfect these school holidays {aside from today when it has started raining}. Ethan has had the best time playing outside all day, sans mud!

Ethan and Dave got busy one sunny day and made me a vege garden out of railway sleepers! Love it.

...............and I looked on and soaked up the sun. Bliss.
Best, Ever, Ab Workout. That is all.
Summer posted this link a couple of weeks ago, and last Friday I tried it out. Standing ab isolation’s are a bit weird at first and hard for white girls like me to co-ordinate, but goddamn this little workout is good! Try it for 5 days and see.

Gloomy days always make for the best photos and this is one of the best pics I have taken in a while. And I took it on my iphone. From the car. Outside Ethan’s school. LOVE.
