Serving our Lord in Rotorua

Uncle Andrew brought around the lego helicopter they'd been making that afternoon, and it soon joined the usual pile in Josh's bed. Monkey, Black Doggy, Helicopter, Teddy Bear (obscured) Josh and Doggy.
Well, the Bible does say 2 is warmer than 1!!!

Josh's art work. He drew these all by himself.









































































My family

Roger and Alison Peake celebrated 50 years of wedded bliss on Saturday. Here they are (center back) with their 6 children, 18 grandchildren, (plus me) and 2 great-grandchildren.













Our slice of the family.












For me, this was a wonderful event. With the whole family there for dinner, I contemplated the odd sensation of having been adopted into this family. I love my family, but I am so blessed to have been so kindly accepted into this amazing, BIG family, providing a whole 'nother Godly dimension to our children's heritage.
