In August 2006 we had the first anniversary of our arrival in New Zealand. The time has gone so fast and life is very good.

To celebrate we had a party at our house, then we went for a day at Hanmer springs, pretty good for the middle of winter!

Had a few friends over. In NZ everyone brings food and drink to a party which is great.

From another angle.

And another.

Gorgeous isn't she!

Not sure who took this, must have been tall!

The last party picture.

Anne with Andrew and his friend Kieran at Hanmer Springs. If you look you can see the snow on the mountain in the background.
