Visits and Visiting in New Zealand

Despite our short time in New Zealand we have been fortunate to have both sets of Grandparents visit as well as my cousin Caroline and her husband Jamie.

Not only did we get visitors we also go to go visiting a little bit.  One of the treats was to visit the sculpture Carin Wilson, a friend of Jamie and Caroline, at his amazing art studio on a mountain top.  We enjoyed the view and company but the kids I think especially enjoyed working in the workshop with "Uncle" Jamie.

And, most importantly, the workshop with Uncle Jamie !
