Classes & goodbye Wellington.
Tags:Each time I travel I am reminded once again about the coolness of scrapbooking. The term "scrapbooking" is not often mentioned in the same sentence as "cool" - but man, it is cool. And all the people I have encountered through scrapbooking are pretty much interested in the same thing: telling the stories of their family and enjoying a hobby they can call their own. Love that. Love that I can walk into a room filled with 50+ women and know that they love the same thing I love. It is all good.
Today we will be leaving Wellington, after a visit to the Kiwi Scraps store. Heading back up towards Auckland and then on to Sydney. Taking it easy this morning before the drive ahead.
And to be honest, I am missing my family. I miss you Chris. I miss you Simon.
My Mom sent me this shot of Simon and my Dad playing hide & go seek in the tall grass. Can you see them? That is right in front of my parents place at the beach - it is Simon's playground. Awesome.
And one more thing, a Henry update: he is HOME safe and sound with John and Liz and doing great. Thank you again from all of us for your prayers.
Peace.

Hi Ali!
Glad baby Henry is home, awesome news.
Hope you have a great trip over to Sydney (although from what I gather customs/checking is a nightmare at the moment).
Can't wait to meet you in Sydney - I even have managed to get all my *homework* done!
Catchya on Saturday.
Cheers,
Lee :)

Ali, I will miss your crazy laid back you-ness. It was so much fun finally meeting you and taking (all three of) your classes. Hope you enjoyed your vodka tonics last night in the bar. Take care my friend. Missing you already, please bring Chris and Simon next time.
