Check out this crazy chick!
15km! What a man!
Jack and I went to McLeans Island bike track today for a hoon. He did the Corringa side track (5km) on top of the usual track, so 15km in all!
I did sneak him a 1/2 Snicker bar at half way to make sure he had energy, but he didn’t once look tired! Time to up the ante to 20km!

Jack’s Cross Country
Jackson did a great job at school and came second in cross country! He put in an awesome effort so we’re totally proud! Only issue was he stopped just before the finish line and mucked around – nearly had another kid run past. Still we’re stoked, good job Jack!


Mothers Day–Up in the hills with family!
After a nice bacon and egg breakfast for Mothers Day and a treasure hunt from Jackson, we took to the hills for the afternoon. The lot of us went to Arthurs Pass for lunch and then played at the upper Waimak and Lake Pearson on the way back.
We also went for a wee hike up Castle Hill and played around the boulders. The kids loved it.
We had a lovely day – it’s great having family time!










Sarah’s Crazy Bread!
I have no idea how she did it but check out this crazy loaf of bread Sarah made in the breadmaker! Looks like it exploded or met some gamma rays!


Ben’s pet bird!
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.
