On Easter Sunday, Orsen took the kids fishing, while I set up the Easter hunt.
When they came home they found their Easter baskets at the front door, with a note and a chewed up carrot. There was ten clues which lead them to ten presents.
The final clue was 'nesting'... Miss 6 screamed 'my nest' {from the Easter photo shoot}... she was correct. While we were Easter hunting down the back, Orsen was busy placing the Easter eggs in her nest.
Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter.
How did you celebrate Easter?
After our Easter hunt, we had lunch at my sister-in-laws. The food was amazing... it felt like Christmas!
The kids had a swim with the cousins. Another Easter egg hunt. Then spent the night making up dances and put on a concert for the adults. The night came to an end when Master 9 vomited :(
Today is ANZAC Day.
This is my mum's father, my Poppy Locke.
My 93 year old poppy fought in the second world war near Italy and was captured as a P.O.W and then he escaped and hid with an Italian family. There's been a book written about him... Fighting with the enemy New Zealand P.O.W's and the Italian resistance, by Susan Jacobs.

These two photos were stollen {borrowed} from my brother's facebook page.
ANZAC Day... Lest we forget.
Love Nikki xx
