Fathers’ Day 06-09-09

This year fathers’ day lasted all weekend! Yesterday Harry & his parents came to visit and as it was such a beautiful day we all took a trip out to Kiwi Valley Farm Park in Henderson. A great time was had by all and yes even grumpy old Poppa (he’s recently given up smoking) managed a smile or two!

First up was this cheeky talking Lorikeet who wasn’t too sure what this was on the man’s arm!

Another lovely day although cold out of the sun. Late afternoon we walked to our granddaughters’ place where the two of them (aged 9 & 12) cooked us a lovely Fathers’ Day dinner. Thanks girls it was yummy, Lasagne & Salad and Berry Pastry Dessert with a glass of wine.
