We had nice little (not so little, probably 50-60 folks) get together at a really cool place in downtown Christchurch called Fat Eddies. It was also our friend Adam's birthday a week before, so it was a double birthday party. The four following pics look like someone's living room but that is actually the upstairs of this place. It is a really nice place to hang out and socialize.
Above, Charisa chatting with Caroline Shorter, one of her coworkers and now good friend of ours. She stayed with us for a week while she was in between places.
Rex (left) and Liesl (chair) are a couple from our church. The gal in the back is Rachel, she goes to the home group we used to go to. I don't know the gal on the right.
Me and Raik, sie German I worked with at the window factory.
Charisa with Mark and Hannah Lewthwaite. They are the lovely folks from church we stayed with for a few weeks before we moved into our place. We are now taking a tango class with them. Quite a fun time.
Charisa's main party at Fat Eddie's was on the Friday before her birthday. Her birthday was the following Monday and she wanted an American breakfast. Drexels in the city serves big ol' American size pancakes and waffles and fortunately they have gluten free ones as well, so Charisa can actually eat them and not just stare at them. So we had an early breakfast before work. This is Mutita, another friend/coworker of Charisa's.
Once again Mark Lewthwaite, this time enjoying his jam and toast.
And the lovely couple. Me sporting some nice puffy allergy eyes.
Here are some photos of the drive we went on last weekend and where the videos of the dog came from. Banks Peninsula is very beautiful.
What teamwork! Charisa helping the cat find something under the chest.
They'd knock if they could.
