Hitting the half pipes – preparing for X games!!

Hikaweara has been working hard on the farm to buy his own skateboard. He finally achieved his goal and is now the proud owner of a “real” skateboard. He is very serious with his helmet and board working our half pipe on the farm. He also takes whatever chance he can get to try his skills out on a public space. Who kknows, perhaps the X Games will be in his future yet!!

(actually he was quite intrigued by the human body book we were looking at the other night so maybe a doctor will emerge!!)

Flashback - Rotten teeth?

I was putting the boys to bed the other night, and as usual you go through the usual teeth toilet, bed etc... I asked Rakai, did you brush your teeth? He said no. (He was honest) So, I said, "do you want your teeth to fall out while you are asleep?" He answered with a sad look on his face, "yes, cause then I can get some money". Oh that was such a Rakai thing to say!! I had to counter that (trying not to laugh) by telling him that the tooth fairy doesn't give money for rotten teeth! Then, Hikawera pipes up saying he got $5 for a rotten (dead actually from being banged) tooth that the dentist had to pull out. I had to go into real damage control then!! Rakai comes out with the funniest things sometimes. He is golden. 

Volleyball

Teancum really enjoys playing volleyball. He jumped right into the teams at boys high, and within a couple of weeks, he was in the 'A' team. They came runner up this season to a solid Hillcrest school team. An awesome group of boys. 

Hakarimata's again!

Yes, we did it! We climbed the Hakarimata's again. Still hard, still so rewarding!!
