Life Down Under

26 Today...

Today was my birthday. After spending the morning in the prayer room (complete with a small birthday celebration during morning tea, thanks to the interns!), I came home to a decorated house, a great pile of presents (including flowers from my hubby), a piano cake that Nic made, and one little girl who was soooooo excited it was her mommy's birthday! She even helped me open my presents. :-)



This afternoon I enjoyed the rare luxury of a nap on the couch - and reading those cooking magazines I started last night. And last but not least, we left Taylor home with Nic after we put her to bed, and Aaron took me here - one of our new favorite places to go these days. This place is a hidden gem - literally only 5 minutes from our house - one of the many great things about New Zealand that one just can't find in the States.....or, at least, in Kansas City. Not to make you jealous or anything........
