How's the weather?

Yesterday we had hail showers all day, even through last night the familiar sound of hail on our roof was heard. Nauvoo came home all excited telling me she saw snow flakes coming down at her school. She was ademant that it was snow, Her teacher said so!! Sure enough, when we watched the news that night, and by the way it is FREEZZZZZING!!!!, this is what we saw:

I remember years ago I said to my children that it will Never snow in Auckland...Well I have been reminded, Never say Never. I thought the rain and cold had passed and spring was on it's way.... I was a little off the mark don't you think!!!

Hope the weather is a little kinder in your part of the world.....

"I'll be your best friend?!"

My baby never fails to have a “such a cutie” moment every day. I don’t know what it is about him, perhaps knowing he is the baby, or simply that he was such a good baby, that I have noticed these little moment s more.   I have to share this one with you. It has happened twice this last week. We are sitting in the car and Rakaipaka calls out and asks for something. Usually it is a lolly or chocolate or something I don’t have at that time. Anyway I call out ‘no’, and the response comes back, “Oooh, Ill be your best friend”!!! Ha How cute is that!! He is all of what 2 years old and is already trying that line on his mother!!! Now the question is posed…. Which one of his siblings did he hear that from!!!!

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.
