Just the two of us...

We left the kids with auntie Fi last night.We went to see a movie in Queenstown.But first we had a couple drinks at a cute little bar next door to the cinema,called Old Man Rock,sat next to the beautiful schist fireplace-i want the same fireplace in the house i plan to have built one day!...It was a freezing cold night,so we skipped the stroll around the waterfront and went straight to the cinema.We saw the breakup-that jennifer anniston one.We both really enjoyed it...though dont you think that jenn's choice of film is abit ironical after her split with Brad?!!..but i'm not one to gossip.
It was so great to get out and just have adult time again.We chatted for ages over our grande' latte's at Starbucks...on one of those comfy couches.I sat with my best friend and we chatted about our life now,about our gorgeous kids..this,as we watched all the styly 20 something year olds all around us.Yeah,i felt abit ancient to be honest,but i love how my life is so FULL now..It is filled with love and,with 2 little people who need me and it is a kind if sacrifice that i could never have dreamed possible at say,25.
Eventually we peeled our bums off the cozy couches and headed back out into the cold night,arm in arm with my lovely husband.We got home about 110'clock and i gave both my sleeping children grateful kisses.
Jasper starts preschool this week.

sounds like a lovely evening! Jon and I spent a wintery sunday talking of all the projects we want to do around the house and shopping for ponds. We bought this really cool three layer waterfall one, which I hope we can put in next weekend. Stables are all so close on the agenda as well. Certainly plenty of things to spend money on thats for sure.
