Woman’s Weekly New Zealand – July 29, 2019

72 New Zealand Woman’s Weekly

Skinfood’s luxurious Brightening Eye Serum, infused

with Persian silk tree extract, rejuvenates the precious

eye area, while its antioxidant-rich Organic Rosehip Oil

deeply hydrates and repairs skin. Our gorgeous bride

receives these two bestsellers, valued at $100, to

indulge her skin with.

Emma & Chris Penny

The force was most certainly with Auckland couple Emma and

Chris as they wed at Howick Historical Village on May 4. “My

husband is a huge Star Wars fan, so we decided to hire storm-

troopers from charity organisation Outpost 42 to join in our

awesome day,” Emma shares. “For both Chris and I, besides

from spending the day celebrating with our family and friends,

the most memorable moment was the first look. Chris stood with his

back turned and stormtroopers either side of him while a third walked me

down the aisle. When I reached Chris, I turned him around so he could see

me in my dress − there was so much love and happiness in that moment.”

MIND YOUR MANNERS
On a recent visit to see our
precious grandson, I had cause
to remind him not to forget his
manners. As I patiently waited
and looked at him, he turned
to me and said in a very quiet
voice, “I’m just giving my tongue
a rest.” I’m still not exactly sure
how much energy is required
to say “Thank you!”

SISTERLY LOVE
Family comes first for the
broadcaster, who opened
up on how she supported
her sister Jessica as she
and her husband moved to
Christchurch in the aftermath
of the 2010 earthquake to
begin new careers.

FIND YOUR FEET

One wet, wintry day, my three-

year-old granddaughter put

on her gumboots to go for a

walk. When I told her she had

them on the wrong feet, she

cried, “But these are the only

feet I have!”

MIXED MESSAGE

Five-year-old Katie had been

misbehaving, so Mum sent her

to her room. Dad went in and

suggested that while there, she

should practise her handwriting,

which was what she was learning

at school. Miss Five looked

thoughtful and Dad was happy

his suggestion was so well

received. Half an hour went by

and Miss Five reappeared with

a note, it read, “Dear Mummy,

I hate you, Love from Katie.”

TOLL CALL

I rang my son’s house and my

grandson Dylan answered

the phone. I thought we could

have a nice chat but after two

minutes, he said, “Nana, can I

go now? The phone’s heavy.”
