Farewell Dinner for Sarah & Andy


























Sarah and Andy and their 2 gorgeous girls, Georgia and Olivia, are heading back to Auckland to live. We have been so lucky to have had them here in Wellington for just over 2 years and it is going to be incredibly hard to see them leave .... Josh is truly going to miss his little soul mate Georgia and Mummy is surely going to miss Sarah and all the things we share. So we decided to have an evening to celebrate their time here in Wellington and we had 14 people who have been special in their lives come for dinner.

Fortunately Mummy had the help of Aunty Rosie and I must confess that much thought went into the invitations, the table setting (Sarah is a real 'pink' girl, hence the colour scheme) and the menu !! We had a gorgeous evening, it was very special - a poem, some impromptu speeches, some tears, glasses of champagne and a lovely meal (phew!) ... an evening certainly very befitting of a very special family who have touched us all in different ways.
And look what Sarah gave Mummy to say thankyou ... a gorgeous aged-timber heart ... now we just have to decide where to hang it.
