It was a gorgeous day about 3 weeks ago on Saturday, so the camera came out to snap a few photo's of the kids at their saturday sports.
The boys are with Helensville Rugby Club and Nauvoo is with Kaukapakapa Netball teams (organised by her school).
We were also very fortunate that ALL of the kids games were at the one venue. How is that for Luck!!! First was the family photo..
Hikawera's Game came first. He is sooo cute!! When he played his first game he was just so happy to be out there, but we couldn't understand why he seemed frozen on the spot fixated on the sky then whilst his team members were running around the field he stood there and exclaimed pointing to the sky, "Look a hot air balloon!" What were we there for again??? As a serious Rugby family we did what we could. Shook our heads and laughed. (Then prompted him to play the game) It is Hikawera's first real team sport so we are very proud of him.
Now, he is doing so well. He has learned to Rip, run and score. He has brought home 2 player of the day certificates!! WEll done son!
Now back to my Nauvoo. I must say, when I was carrying Nauvoo, I was not sure if I was ready for a girl. SO glad Heavenly Father knows best. I knew after I gave birth to her that she would change my life. She has. I am so blessed to have my daughter in my life. Being the only girl in our family, she is amazing. Now, before I get choked up and carried away I will revert back to topic.
Isn't she just beautiful!. It was an exciting day for all to support Nauvoo in her first Netball game. She was all ready to go, and when the time came She and I walked down to the courts. Here is her warming up with her team.
Her face says it all.
That day she played Goal Attack, Goal Shooter, Centre and Wing Defense. How? They play 2 games each week (unless there is a bye) and there are 2 halves to each game. To get these first year girls learning the different positions they are rotated around. Nauvoo does really well. She is a natural at passing and catching. She loves to run - and now her coach has told her not to be so "polite" on the court, she is really progessing. So proud of my daughter!!!
