Jackson’s Office Uniform!
The 3 Day DIY mission! – Finished!!
Here’s the finish result! (minus a sun umbrella!)
I can see lots of hard work days ahead, cruising in the sun with a laptop. Anyway, I’ll give myself a pat on the back for this effort.


The 3 Day DIY mission! – Office Garden!
With a new employee starting on monday, I decided to tart up the area behind the garage. Below is what it used to look like. (We’d already fenced a month or so ago).
Look above to see the ‘New Improved’ version! not bad for 3 days and a few hundred dollars 😉

The bonnie wee lad smiling
Jack has started smiling over the past week. It’s very lovely to see… We got one on film… see below.


A day off fishing for Dad!



I decided to take a break from being a dad and headed out fishing with a mate Ben Vivian. We headed down to ‘Pendarves’ just South of the Rakaia. It was a long shingle beach recommended by a mate. It was relaxing, but as the photos show, all we caught were sharks. Still… Better that a day in the office!
A Stone Family Christmas!

What a great Christmas! Not only did we have Shirley (Sarah’s mum) down, but we also had our first Christmas with our new lad. The hairy thing in the photo is Daisy our dog. She’ll be a great playmate for Jack as he grows…
So the Stone family now consists of: Sarah (mum), Julian (dad), Jack (bubs), Daisy (dog), Splat (cat), 2 horses (Ellie & Chatty), 5 peacocks & 7 chickens.
The Mums have a photo op…

This is Sarah’s mum Shirley. And what a lovely child we have in regards to keeping up the family relations. If you look closely (and yes, we zoomed in) it’s his third finger Jacks holding up.
Yup it appears that Jack is giving Nana Shirley ‘the bird’. ha ha…
Either that or he’s doing his ‘Mini Me’ impersonation from Austin Powers. 😉
Jackson’s First day on the job – getting to grips with the workplace…

This is Jack getting the hang of touch typing. Once he’s got that sorted, we’ll get him onto the detachment of MS SQL databases. We’ll keep his chores light to begin with…
