Sorry bout the wrong date on the picture! Oops!

Some Hawera shots

The girls got in a bit of training at Sherryn and Kelvin's before we set off.

As we are beginning to settle into Hawera life thought you would like to see some more pictures.

Hockey Training

Today the girls were at Saxton Field hockey turf for Hockey training. The did some skills and then played a game. Annabel played in goal for the game only letting one goal through and Amelia was a striker.

Annabel plays netball

Today Annabel played her first game of netball at WD. She was filling in because another girl broke her finger.
She played really hard and was awesome for her first attempt.

It was freezing cold by the time she finished and she could hardly feel her fingers.

The girls

The girls got all dressed up for a meal out last weekend and looked beautiful.

Check out our cross country runner

Annabel ran in the school cross country on Friday and completed the 700m course 5 times. She ran really well and we were very proud of her.

Amelia's got talent!!!

Amelia has developed a unique singing talent, loving Mama Mia songs.

Mountain biking

Annabel is competing in the mountain bike series again this year and doing really well.

Arrowtown Holiday

We have had a great holiday in Arrowtown and enjoyed some very chilli weather! The girls loved being part of the Autumn festival parade.

Boating at Kaiteriteri

Today we went to Kaiteriteri boating with Fake Nana and Grandad. We had a great time on the biscuit and then went up to split apple rock and around Adele Island to look for seals. We all saw some seals.

We had a great day, Thanks Sherryn and Kelvin.

ZAC

Sadly today we had Zac put down today. He had a stroke and putting him down was the kindest thing to do. He spent his last weekend with us camping at Quinney's bush!
He has been a very loyal dog and a valued member of our family for the past 10 years.


May he rest in peace.

Amelia turns 4!!!

Amelia had her 4th birthday party on Saturday and her real birthday today. She began morning kindy today and had a great party. She got lots of lovely presents. Thank you everyone!

Camping at Mapua

Recently we have had a great time camping in Mapua - not nude!!!!

Annabel jumped off the wharf lots of times and Amelia was learning to ride her bike.


Check out some of the photos. Note Amelia managed to jump into the paddling pool but the wharf Annabel jumped off was about 4 meters above the water.
