Friday night we drove down to Orere Point Beach to spend the night at a Bach booked for Lenny's 38th Birthday. It was quite nice getting out of the hustle and bustle of Auckland and head down to a tranquil little beach spot where we could just let our hair down. The Bach had a piano which our little maestro couldn't get enough of which reiterated to us that we REALLY need to get him into some music classes soon. He loves any kind of musical instrument and we really want to hone in on that interest and develop that skill. Anyway, we could only spend one night at the Bach and headed back to Auckland the next day.
Here are some pics of the night away:

Beautiful and serene

Once we got back into Auckland I had to rush to get ready for our friend Helen's Hens Do. Helen & Adam are getting married on April 5th, Easter Sunday at Waiheke. So Saturday night she got a few of her friends together to celebrate her last few days of singledom. It was a lovely evening with great company at Vivace Restaurant in Auckland's High Street.
We played a game where we had to anonymously write down a memory or funny story about Helen and if she correctly guessed who had written it down, that person was to wear something silly. These are the ladies who were caught out and we got them to take a group photo.
This is a photo of the entire group sitting down to dinner. The waiter got in on the action! LOL!
The Bride to be
All in all it was a really good, fun-filled weekend and well, at 22 weeks pregnant, I'm glad it's over. I'm knackered after that!
