Surprise!

So this boy: 

was supposed to arrive here in New Zealand on Thursday, March 3rd for a month long visit. 

Tuesday night Amanda and Becky came and picked me up to go skimboarding. They had this way cool spot they were going to show me! So we drove through this neighborhood to this side street and started walking down these steep stairs to this very small secluded beach. I got down to the beach first and was thinking to myself "wow, what a great spot to come and ponder about life" and I looked over and saw a guy sitting there on the rocks and I thought, "oh that guy is doing just that"! 

Then I look back at Becky and Amanda because they were taking forever and they both were  just standing there with these huge grins on their faces. That's when I looked back to the "pondering guy" and realized it was...you got it, Jason. He was a whole two days early:) 

Looking back, I kind of can't believe I didn't catch on.

-Jason hadn't been online for almost 2 days and I kept thinking, "man, where is he! I need to talk details with him"!

-My mom tip toed around a couple questions I asked her this week. Good job, woman. 

-Amanda and Becky got to my house and were like, "hey, you should bring your camera". Skimboarding? Ok, sure, why not. I'm way to chill a person to ask many questions. haha

-And lastly, of course Jason would plan something like this. He is always so creative and cute with everything. 

So what did we do for the two extra days, you ask!?

Well Tuesday night we went to Devonport and walked around and got some delicious ice cream with Amanda, and Becky. 

Wednesday we went back to where he surprised me to take some more pictures. 

I made him reenact it. 

Surprise face! 

(pretty sure it didn't really look like this. At least I hope not. haha)

 We didn't quite make it in the 10 second time-frame my camera gives me...

That's better. 

Then we went to dinner at a place called Buffalo Bar and Grill in Takapuna. 

Wednesday we started out with a little swim at Browns Bay. 

Then we went for a walk at Long Bay Regional Park. 

Then we went to a movie:) 

On tonight's agenda: 

"Dancing in the Moonlight"

outdoor dance at a farm, don't mind if I do! 

I'm going to try to update this with our adventures pretty often because if I go too long then I just won't do it because we're going to have SO MANY! I'll get overwhelmed. 

Coming soon...

Thank you mister.
