Liser and Treva's Birthday Bash

Lise turned over another leaf yesterday, and rang it in with friends, style and fun. Full from another great thankgiving dinner at Adam and Bridget's cabin, we had a slow start then rolled up to Birch Hill for the Turkey Day Relay. Joined by the great Scottish sport Helena Buurman, we were 'Not the New Zealand National team'. That way the race announcer, and running and ski coach, John Estle couldn't repeat his favourite little joke, "here comes Lisa Phelan from the NZ national team".. We all did better than our previous efforts and really enjoyed the warm weather, even if the course was melting out a little due to freaky warm snap lately.

We followed that with a great 'games night' at our place for Lisa and Trevor, her birthday-twin. It was a really fun night with a great bunch of friends. The birthday kids were in great form during the classic kiwi 'chocolate game' and pictionary. This could be a battle of the blogs with Lena, Dea, Ed and Trevor, so here are our best snaps:

The good old chocolate game - fun for more than just 6 year old New Zealand kids!
