While all my American friends were celebrating Memorial Day - we over here in New Zealand were working hard. But the following weekend, a holiday honoring the Queen took over down under. I guess it all evens out. Queens Birthday Weekend.
Josh and I decided to visit Anna (Josh's sister) and her kids for the weekend - Nikka was away at a business conference and the YWAM Staff gathering was taking place only 45 mins from Anna's house. It seemed like a no-brainer to us, so off we went.
We had such a great time with Anna and her two adorable boys, Nathan and Ben. We both fell in love with them, and decided they are potentially the cutest kids in the world. We discovered very quickly that they are both very much into machines, drains, dirt, trucks, and especially "Diggers". As we would drive down the road, they would both start shouting "digga, digga, digga", and we'd be looking around for it everywhere and there on the horizon, hardly viewable to the eye would be a digger. It was rather funny.
One morning, Josh got a nail in his front tyre, so we thought it would be a good outing for the boys. So we all went down to the Tyre shop, and it was up there with one of the greatest moments in their day as they watched the man take the tyre off and use big machines, jacks, etc to fix it. They were totally captivated for every second we were there.
Good times.
Josh went to the YWAM Staff gathering on the Sunday. It was great for him to be able to connect with friends working in the ministry from around the nation.
