I have a great weekend. It started off slow on Friday night with the movie American Gangster, which I did not enjoy. Then on Saturday I went shopping with my sister and bought new jeans and some cute shoes - totally love my new purchases! We also stopped for sushi and coffee for lunch.

On Saturday night we went to Rob’s sister’s boyfriend’s (I know a mouthful) 30th birthday. He had a 70s/Hawaiian Beach theme. Unfortunately I don’t own anything in either category. So turned up in my dressy gears and was then got given a leis. It was a fun night, mostly made up of Rob’s family but we had fun dancing and socialising. It wasn’t too much of a late night, we were home about 1.30am.

Today (Sunday) I’ve just got back from lunch with my sister and a few friends. We went to a Mexican cafe in Orewa. Oh wow! So yum. Instead of snapping photos of the meal I ate I took a couple of Ella. Ella is my sister’s boyfriend’s sister’s baby (yes, another mouthful) and she’s three months old and oh so cute!

After lunch four of us headed to the new luge in Silverdale to have a go. Quite fun I must say. We were so lucky to pick such a beautiful day!

The girls.

My cute, new shoes. You do not need to see a photo of me in a helmet. Not a good look!

But yes, a pretty eventful weekend… considering I was supposed to start studying management accounting for exams. Ahem. I missed that bit out.
Now we’re off to my dad’s house in about an hour for his birthday dinner. It’s his birthday tomorrow, but we’re going tonight because my sister is out of town for work tomorrow night.

I hope everyone else had a brilliant weekend!
