Rest in peace

Emily, Gil, Fay, Colin and I finally made our way up to Whenua Tapu Cemetery (http://www.pcc.govt.nz/A-Z-Services/Cemetery-and-Crematorium/Whenua-Tapu-Cemetery) and placed the second half of Lee and Samantha's ashes to rest. They're obviously making a difference up there already as the forecasted rain had been replaced by glorious sunshine.....thanks babe!

For those that want to go visit, in-between map 1 and map 2 there's a little dotted path. Lee is at the top of the path on the right hand side. It's a beautiful spot and I know they'll be happy there.

Happy birthday babe

There's going to be a lot of significant dates in our lives and we've just crossed another couple. Emily and I celebrated Lee's birthday yesterday with a wonderful brunch courtesy of our most excellent friends Bridget and Nigel. We followed that up by making birthday cupcakes in what will be a new annual tradition. Emily did a great job decorating them after we made them together. And she also picked her favourite for us to put a birthday candle in. Happy birthday babe.

And then there was today.......happy anniversary babe xxx

Relay for Life in memory of Lee

Well, Emily and I have just returned from a great trip back to Scotland to see our wonderful family and friends. We also managed to take in a side trip to Madrid and Granada to visit our cousins which was amazing. I will eventually get around to posting photos of the trip for those that haven't seen them on facebook. It was a very different trip to our usual ones but in taking some mementos Lee and I organised last year, I'm sure Lee was with us every step of the way.

Now that we're back, I'm taking part in the Relay for Life (17 hour walk/run) in memory of Lee. If you'd like to help our team fund raise for the Cancer Society, go to www.relayforlife.org.nz/index and click to "Support a team and Donate". Fill in your details selecting "Relay for Life Wellington 2011" as the event, then "Lee's Legion" as the team and click on my name. 

Thanks all x
