As most of you can probably gather, I am basically sticking to Twitter for my "social media" blogging type activities these days.

In early September we finally got to Hawaii via Dole and had a wonderful time. Rebecca declared " I have used my passport now, finally" which coming from an 8 year old is pretty funny.

Here are a couple of quick pictures from the trip for those who haven't seen any. Just click on them to see the bigger version.

Sunset on Waikiki Beach,stunning.

Not sure how many of you use Twitter but I just started recently in case anyone wants to follow me or be followed !

And as a bonus today here is a picture from the latest Los Angeles jaunt, the beautiful flowers that were waiting in our room for us when we checked into The Sofitel.
Aunty Em is one heck of a dame ;) Thank you so much Naomi they were gorgeous.

Procrastination should be my middle name, at least when it comes to updating the old blog !
There was a time when I updated and read others faithfully almost to the point of obsession. Now it seems I have relagated blogging to the "used to be fun" pile.
I think about updating often but thinking about it and doing it are not quite the same thing.

I guess I really just don't do things on a daily basis that I feel people would be interested in reading, I don't have an amazing past to dredge up stories from and right now I can't see any blogworthy moments on the horizon.

It is still summer break here in New Zealand and the kids will be returning to school Feb 3rd. Rebecca got her "American girl" just like me doll for Christmas , I know she is not an American girl she is a Kiwi girl but decent 18 inch dolls are well nigh impossible to find here.
Chloe ( which is what she called her) has turned out to be a huge hit and has been played with constantly since she arrived :)
Good call Mummy !!





Joel is still playing guitar like a maniac, has formed a band with some friends from school called Tribulation ( and no they are not a Christian group which is what one might assume)
His latest thing is learning classical pieces that have been funked up. I actually don't mind listening to that, rather that then some of the other things he was playing. I must be getting old.

The tv quiz show that I filmed way back in June or July ( so long ago I don't even remember exactly) has finally aired as of last week.
I can now finally tell you that my partner and I did make it to the "Rich list" part of the show and got to nine correct answers on our list. Our list was European Union countries that use the Euro as currency. We got $15,000 which we had to split.

Does anyone want to see pictures from the 2008 Los Angeles Christmas trip, I will post some if you do :)
I think that is enough for today, who knows I might even update again sometime later this week !!

I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season with your friends and loved ones. For now I have to go make potato salad and clean a bathroom, yeah me !
