birthday #4 out of 5

i was a youthful 18 and JR was a "mature" 22 (well, compared to 18 it was mature!) when we started "going out". on sunday he turned 36. now that sounds mature! the good thing about being 4 years apart in age is that i always get to feel so young! :).

(oh, and just so ya know, i'm feeling the cross-processed vibe...it's to distract from the fact that i'm not a professional photographer like all the real cool bloggy types)

the birthday began with a ga-zillion presents made with love and care by sweet little hands

.....including at least a million presents made from scraps of wood and sawdust from the workshop (including a kontiki...of course).....

.....then to Rotorua. and the gondola. gleee~~.....

....and "the houses look so small aye mummy!".....

....yes, even Jada loved the luge....

finally Ty's turn. MEGA gleee!....

...and mum? yanno. doin what i do :)...

we had the Most Fun Day.

Happy Birthday JR xo
