The blog post that took me 2 weeks to figure out

Oh hey. So G-ma, G-pa, and Mom.  This blog goes out to you, because you can't see any facebook pictures.  You should feel honored, because I hate blogging.  Just a warning, I didn't know how to put my pictures in any specific order, so it's just random.  And the captions are limited.  But, I wanted you to see a slice of NZ.  I love it!

P.S.  I named my blog, "Kiwi with the Skin Off" because that's how I eat kiwi's.  And obviously New Zealand is famous for kiwi's.  They call themselves "kiwi's".  Also it was a little joke, because I know someone, *cough, Pj*, who eats kiwi's with the skin ON!

Bella, me, Em.

For all you Harry Potter fanatics.  We saw it under a bridge while kayaking.

Julie's son Beau, and his babysitter, Emily. She got him this mustache kit.
He kept assuring us that it was really him under that hair!
