Toby & Ruth's Engagement Party

Apologies for the lack of people present in these images, I was too tired and had already socialised all morning at our church fair ahem.

We had a relaxing celebration with afternoon tea and chit chat :)

David's 21st {Or the Post in Which I Reveal My Identity as Superwoman}

It's been fun having a few 21sts in our church group over the last few months, but I think we may be done for a bit now?

David's and my birthdays are only a few days apart, and I was in the thick of planning my own party so jumped on Google and Pinterest the night before (don't do it guys, it's stressful :P) to see if I could put a book-character costume together.

I've never read/watched/whatever Superwoman, but some of the ideas coming up looked like ones I could re-create. I already had a blue top, red skirt, red shoes, and gold ribbon, so that decided my costume for me lol. I found (yes, and coloured in) a colouring picture to pin onto my top, and grabbed some red fabric the following day which Mum made into a cape and erm whatever-you-want-to-call-them to make my shoes look like boots.

Thanks Malinda for the following shots:

Becka's 18th Birthday

Becka did a double-celebration for her 18th birthday (also in June) this year - ice skating one Saturday afternoon for everyone, and a mothers & daughters dinner at Masala on a Tuesday roughly a two weeks later.

Ice skating; left to right: Esther, Marieke, me, Becka, Suzanne
Jarrod, Toby, Rueben S., Ruth
Jordan, Middy, Rueben R.
Mum, Bryce, Abigail
Maria, Danielle, Monique, Dad & Diana, Natalie & a friend

We actually had more people come ice skating but some had already left when we took this photo...
Except for the blisters afterwards, it was awesome!! haha :P

A photo I talk of myself before we went to
Masala, and yes, I've photoshopped it...

I don't have much to say about Masala (Indian restaurant in Papakura) either I'm afraid, except that the food was great and we really enjoyed talking and being together. Oh yeah and we got some cool pics ;)
Afterwards we went to McDonald's for dessert :)
