Happy Birthday Aunty Chris.. and a little bit more.

Happy Birthday!! We love you and miss you!
Again, I apologize for the blog delays... Crazy enough.. (and this is true) we seemed to have maxed out on our internet usage at our temp house.
In NZ the ISP providers charge by how much you use.. So when you get cable you have to buy a package.. 10GB, 20GB, ect.. all based on how much you download/upload.
When you go over you alotted size everything SLLOOWWWWS down to a speed worse than dial up... We are guessing that the house we are at now prob has a low usage package.
Because our high download/upload usage in the past couple weeks.. i.e. the girls singing happy birthday to Jeb, Eric playing online games, web cam calls and now Haidyn playing Webkinz.. (she needs to keep her beloved pony sent to us by grandma fed so needs to logon to do this).. we have managed to max out and have been terribly painfully slow...
I believe once you hit the max... they start charging a huge amount to keep our daily internet fix going.. if that is true.. then this blog is going to cost more than just the time.. (but you are all worth it)
It is a GREAT thing we only have 3 more days until we move into our house, then we can set up our internet so that we can download as much as possible to keep in touch with all of you!!
Just a little insight into our day... this morning we picked up our new "people mover"... We needed to get a car/airport shuttle because in 6 days Grandma Jo and Papa are going to be here. Also at the end of March my sister Gail is coming out with my awesome nieces and nephew (Dani, Faith, Erin and Matt) We needed to find a car that would seat 8 people.. which is not an easy task.. most people movers here seat 7 max.
Here are some photos of our sexy new family car... it is a Mazda MPV Coach... (just in case you were wondering =)

Wow! Only 3 more sleeps until the big and final move!! Glad you are keeping it together Anna. I can only imagine how tough it has been to keep moving. I love your new people carrier. They call them that here too.. where we would say 'minivan'. Now, I believe you are too young to drive a minivan but, with all your family coming to visit you are a wise woman! I hope you have the best visit with Eric's parents.

Dude! That thang rox! Although we will never have a need to carry that many humans at one time, I want one! Congratulations on your last few days at 7 Onehunga. Congratulations to you and Eric for successfully avoiding any child injuries at that lovely, yet extremely dangerous rental.

That is one SERIOUS hooptie mobile. Get the spinners and jack it up a bit and...
Seriously, though, how great that your excuse for getting a new ride is all the family headed your way. That's awesome!
...and HAPPY MOVING! Hooray for permanent accomodations!

Looks so funny to see the steering wheel on the opposite side! But I'm sure Mary would love to know you have a Mazda MPV. Both her and Mark drive one, as Mary works for Eich Motors that sells Mazda and VW.
wow! Oop I guess Vashti beat me to that phrase. Holy moly. Sounds like you are getting set. We can't wait to ride in the people mover. Good luck with the move.
Love Gail

We will be looking forward to the next big birthday in your family and the pictures of you new house. Your new MPV Masda should help you get you belongings to your new home. Hope your move go well and you get your blog up and running again. Catch you later.
Love Dad and Mom
