MIA

I went on holidays and then forgot about my blog!

S and I had a great time in New Zealand. The scenery was amazing and everyone is so friendly! Here are a few snaps that I have saved on my work computer

This was on the way to Milford Sound - snow everywhere!

Lake Tekapo

Christchurch - so very sad to see!

Teddy, our dog stayed at a schanuzer boarding place and was sufficiently worn out by the time we picked him up. We were told he had a fantastic time and we are very thankful that he had such good accommodation where people loved him just as much as we do!

Since holidays, I have gotten stuck in to some uni work...so nothing too exciting.

S and I booked plane tickets to our next destination - Japan! Yay

Hakuba had the first snow drop over the weekend!

Teddy's haircut

Blurry pic...but Teddy got his haircut on Saturday so I guess you can see the difference to what he looked like in the previous post.

The groomers we go to have changed management and the new people hurt my poor boy really badly! They pluck the dogs ear hairs and they went a little too far. He is still recovering and it is Thursday!

Have a great week everyone! I am off to NZ on Sunday.

Shaggy Dog...

Poor Teddy hasn't been groomed since before Winter. We thought it best to leave his hair so he wouldn't be too cold..especially considering he hates his jackets we bought him. He looks like this at the moment...

Lucky he is booked in to the groomers on Saturday. I think it will be a welcome change for him because it is starting to get a lot warmer in Sydney! I will update with a pic once he is home from the groomer.

Necklace

There is a blog I follow called Talk2thetrees and the owner, Rachael is an incredibly talented artist. She sells her paintings on etsy and announced not long ago that she would be making necklaces and using some of the paintings she had created.. I just love her work and so I went ahead and bought a necklace which arrived yesterday.

It is so lovely! I wore it today (to my last exam for the session, woohoo!) and I plan to wear it again tomorrow. It is so different and unique and didn't cost much either!
