Here’s Jack just hanging out before school…

Check this out! first week and he’s got his first certificate!

Here’s Jack’s classroom. I think he’s enjoying it all!

Check out Jack’s new school uniform for Weedons School in West Melton (Christchurch)! He’s pretty excited about it all. Oh well! End of an era and the start of a new one! Our baby’s growing up!

Check out these vids of Olivia and Jack playing rough and tumble! I love seeing these two just playing and being total gooses… I think Jack is starting to really enjoy his sister and she totally adores him.   

I guys they’re just living up to the family name below…

We took off for a drive with the kids to Pigeon Bay but Livvy had other ideas. She did a full on car sick power chuck in Sarah’s new car.

With no spare clothes, we detoured to Akaroa and got a cheap shirt and pants. Had fish and chips, walked around in the blustery wind, checked out the lighthouse and drove home. Was a nice day!

How’s this for a good night time pose. Jack often tries new sleeping methods and I love when we can catch them on camera.

We popped up to Kowhai Bush the other day with Si and Jane. Simon and I taught the kids how to build a dam! Retro fun times hey!

Jack’s solo mission in the tent. He did all night by himself to proving to me he’s brave enough to go camping for real!

Jane, Simon, Zach and Jed came down for Christmas this year (and New Years). We loved hanging out with them and the kids had a blast (when not killing each other.

Here’s a few pics (and some of the new pony, Milo)…

Livvy going for a ride on Milo…

Toasting marshmallows over the fire…

Jackson getting professional riding lessons from Mum…

Jack’s 5th birthday today! Look at these two gooses! That’s Jack’s friend Kade… Filled up on sugar, lollies and ice cream and they’re starting to lose their marbles!
