*Celebrating*

Hi Everyone,

Happy New Year and all that jazz. Not excited about that because... WE HAVE OVER 50 POSTS HERE!!  Well done girls, thanks to those who have blogged recently (in the 4 weeks) (Yes, Nira, take a hint). Can you believe we started this because of a chemical fire? When we were all young and innocent, ok maybe not innocent but more so.

I'd like to say some stuff now.

Thanks to Enesti for coming up with the idea. Thanks to Nira for agreeing with her. Thanks to Hazel for coming in on the plan a little later and starting a whole new email account just to be a part of this. Thanks to all the people who read this for just putting up with us. Thanks to the few non-authors who have commented. Thanks to blogger for hosting this. And special thanks to our families who put up with their daughters spending time writing the life out for the world and the typing in the lounge room. And to my mum and brother who let me freak out whenever this is having issues because it's not letting some of my authors post or do anything, Dad, you too but you weren't at home that day.

Anyway, I have been away for two weeks in New Zealand, I got back yesterday. It was a tonne of fun and I think I did well on the Thrill Front (21 metres off the ground :) ) I'll blog about them soon. The weather was foul when I got there and when I left but the rest of the time it was pretty good. I saw my beautiful cousins, Junior and Bat for the 4th and 3rd times respectively. (Junior is girl, it's part of a nickname, Bat is a boy, also a nickname). And I met my gorgeous step cousins for the first time. They are half Japanese twins and let's nickname the girl Cat (she likes the word) and the boy Car (he likes those). They are the sweetest kids and Cat just loved to give me cuddles. we also saw my amazing Grandma, my step Grandad, my uncle and aunt and my step uncle and aunt. So many family members.

Tomorrow my Grandpa and his partner get here. And after that I will have seen everyone in my family except for one step aunt these holidays. I'm also going on a camp next weekend to Nowra with the girls from my youth group, 3 days of awesome. Unfortunately, the awesome girls from here aren't coming. But after that I promise I am staying in Canberra. As far as I know that is.

Anyway, I'm going to create a question thingy for the authors of this so you know who you are dealing with this year. Girls, answer or else...

Messages: Nira : Either you have a death wish or you hit your head in a cave, blog or you will never see Mango or Albert again, EVER!!

Hazel: Hope your better from that cold, had fun on camp, thanks for blogging and have a blast in Thailand honey.

Enesti: Good job on the blogging. Good luck with the Piper and read the books I lent you.

Ok, that's all folks. Stay Beautiful, love many, trust few and paddle your own canoe, have a good year.

Love Zara

P.S Stay tuned for questions. Thinking of making it a dare.
