mcrudd Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Hi all, next Thursday the 20th we are celebrating our 15th wedding anniversary. We can't find anyone to mind the kids and its a weekday, so hubby is at work from 2pm to 11pm, can you guys suggest anything we can do to celebrate as a family. I thought Valentines lunch, he can take his car and I will take mine, so he can leave for work directly from there :cr10: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 We just celebrated our 35th anniversary with Chinese takeaways :thup: What about a family picnic in the park? (Assuming it isn't raining for once in Auckland) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcrudd Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Thanks for all the lovely ideas. Congrats on your anniversary Caryl We did go to Kelly Tarltons as a family recently so we might have to go somewhere else this time. A picnic sounds fun, we have the beautiful Omana right here in walking distance. Just hope the weather will play along, it always seems to rain when I plan something outdoors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calculator Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 I second the idea for you going on a picnic, and the weather is nice, and doesn't look at all like it will change to rain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcrudd Posted December 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Buy him Call of Duty. We got him Halo limited collectors edition, it comes with lots of extra weapons or something. No idea what it is, Eb said its a good game for his age. I will look into Call of Duty, he is 13 so lots of games are too violent for him. +1 (and a ps3) Got one, Perhaps I should explain how we have them all LOL. We bought my son playstation 2 when he was 5. He still has it but occassionally it freezes up. We bought me the wii with the wii fit to get fit, but my daughter took it over and its in her room because she loves the just dance games (I have an 8 year old teenager) Then we got my son the playstation 3 because 2 freezes up and he showed us he can look after it by looking after his playstation 2 for so many years. That is in his room (he is a teen so has a sleepout, due to us only having a two bedroom bach. Then xbox kinect came out and we bought that for the family so that is in the lounge, we all four can play that together and it gets my kids moving since most of the games you are the controller. No1 stay away from shopping centre No2 boring playing video game indoor No3 forget about fish for one day Picnic would be a nice family day out I enjoy cafe lunch then shoot out to Pokeno for a fun treat of 12 scoops ice cream. Congart! :cr2: Lol 1-3 is not a problem agree with them all. Except for if its a rainy day. It looks very much like it will be a fun picnic or a dvd day if its rainy. Will see how the weather goes and assassins creed 3 I will look into those games, he loves his wargames. He does have one for ps3 not sure of the name will look when he gets home from school.

mcrudd Posted December 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 Looks like cyclone Evan might wash my picnic away. I am in contact with Weather watch on facebook, so will ask them closer to the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophia Posted December 16, 2012 Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 I will stick my neck out and say it's going to be grubby weather all week but we won't get much excitement from that cyclone. We check the weather using this baromic map, it's usually more accurate than the Metservice http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/charts/ ... E=IDY00050 Probably an inside activity or a rainy drive to somewhere with tasty food would be safe. What about a car picnic? Maybe not something that would enthuse the kids but could be fun if it is pouring down. :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
