We visited Ben and Rose and the kids. ben showed us his pet bird which sat on his shoulder like a pirate over lunch. It’s pretty cool. Here’s Jackson holding the wee fella… Was fantastic to catch up with the family.

Check out Olivia the bumblebee. She loved getting dressed up!

Here’s the whole troop! Emily, Abigail, Rowan, Jack and Olivia!

We drove down to the Dobbs in Hamilton to have a catch up and see the new addition. Pete took the boys to the tramp and gave them some leaf blowers to play with. How cool was that!
I took Jack to Auckland to see the ‘How To Train Your Dragon’ show and visit his cousin Zach. Awesome stage show and amazing effects! Here’s some pics from the trip.
Here’s Jack reading a book to Zach.

Typical breakfast at Simon’s place!

Nutty kids!

Got the lad a haircut for School on Monday.

Two good kids getting ready for the show!

Wasn’t allowed to film, but it was a pretty spectacular event!

Quick dip in the water after…

Apparently Jackson told a joke on stage in front of a heap of people at Hornby Mall. It was a slightly inappropriate joke, but I’m proud of him for getting up on stage. What a brave kid!

We took the family to the Weka Pass steam train trip from Glenmark to Waikari today. Aimee, Rich and Nim joined us and it was a blast. Perfect weather, lovely views and pretty well behaved kids!




We took the kids to New Brighton today to get their feet wet. It was Olivia’s first time playing on the sand and she loved it. Jack was just a happy goose!
