Maverick, Mpekweni and the Moerse Pineapple

Its been a hectic few weeks in the Carr house with MBA lecture blocks in Grahamstown and exam time at Selborne but in between all the craziness we have fitted in a week-end away at Mpekweni beach Resort, a visit to the "moerse Pineapple" at Bathurst and welcoming our new Rhodesian Ridge Back pup. Meet Maverick - 8 weeks old - he is going to be a big 'un:

Ava's first birthday

Our little nice, Ava, turned one on 2 June and we had a little party for her at Granny Pie's house in Stutterheim. The boys adore their little cousin and were only too happy to help with the opening of her gifts. She really is an adorable little girl :)
It's a busy time work-wise in the Carr household at the moment. Nath is in Grahamstown for two weeks doing the next block of MBA lectures and exams, and although he is being kept very busy, he seems to be enjoying it. I am also busy with exams, but am marking them and not actually taking them myself, thank goodness! The end of term is in sight now (26 June) and I am really looking forward to a three-week break with the boys.
