It just went on and on... and we still have to catch up with friends this week for dinner... whew.
Haven't felt so loved in a long time though.
Firstly on thurday Mike spoilt me rotten. I got a Pandora bracelet with 3 charms, Juno on DVD and chocolates. Mikes mama sent me a gorgeous wallet to match the handbag she sent me for christmas, and I got cards from lots of friends.
That night we shot through to Hamilton after work for drinks and dinner with my family. We hit the Bank first for a drink... I got a birthday shot and we had cocktails...

Then down the road to Iguana for dinner and birthday cake.

Friday I took hte day off to spend time with my mama. I got a lot of vouchers as gifts so we went shopping with those and had lunch at this really nice new place called Pumice. And of cause... frappicino.
Friday night we headed up to Auckland to stay with Daniel and Ashleigh. Daniel is my biological brother (I am an adopted kid). We chilled out at the Auckland Muesum on Saturday as it poured down outside. They have a T-Rex on loan from the Chicago museum so it was cool to see that.

That night they snuck me out to dinner at an Italian place called Ginas (if you're in Auckland check it out... perfectly Italian - Italian staff, menu and style... awesome). It showed me how much I have lost the little bit of Italian I learnt last year. We have pizza and pasta and peroni and limoncello... just like being back there.

On sunday it was one of my other bio-bro's birthdays and it was a bit of a surprise that the whole family was getting together... so I got to see my 3 brothers and my birth mother and father. We played glow-in-the-dark mini golf... it was weird but fun anyway.
