Girls night out.

Hi have missed my dear friends in fiji, but have been blessed with a wonderful new friend here in NZ. We organized a girls night out for the two of us. It was the first time to the movies since being back to nz. It was great to 'dress up' and go out. I was so surprised at the cinema when we walked in. They were sooo posh!!! There is a cinema called the circle lounge $15 saw us sitting in HUGE lounge type chairs with a table in the middle for our snacks and drinks and spot lights we controlled. (on/off switches) We watched Mirror Mirror. I love Julia Roberts, and unlike the last Julia Roberts movie I saw, I stayed awake through the whole thing. I tried to take a photo of the chairs cause I was so wrapped with them - yes don't get out much do I - and had to get a photo of the two of us to remember our night out.


Every light you see is the middle of 2 seats shining on the table for refreshments.

Introducing Looie James!!

We also stopped to Hells Pizza on the way home for scrumptious Gormet pizza and I was introduced to their dessert pizza. Custard berries, banana and chocolate. We sooo love chocolate. The boys in the shop were great, we dined and talked till it was about 11:30pm (they closed at 11) and looie's daughters were txting her to see when SHE was coming home... such a great night, such a good friend.. Thanks Looie.

The Nastiest bug creates a war Zone

This entry has no photo's but as you read on you will see why. I did however need to be recorded for posterity!!! and to say We survived. Renata had been at school only 2 days, He went to his Last Montessori   Class on a Thursday. Friday morning Came and he began to throw up. Within the next 3 days 5 of my 6 children were down with the nastiest vomiting/diarrhea bug I have ever encountered. Arama was away on business, so I was on my own. This bug has had a reputation in our community, taking no prisoners and not missing any members of the family. Yes that bad. I was grateful Arama was away, but my big boy was due to go on his Pinacle Camp for a week with school on the Monday. I prayed that he would not get it. It was Fast Sunday the Sunday before so we both fasted he would not get sick before or ON his camp. (his first 2 days was a 2 day treck in the bush and the only way out was via rescue helecopter – not an option thanks) Just the thought of him possibly gett

teaching independance

I like to think I encourage independance in our home. Helping our kids to be confident that they can do many things on their own. making themselves something to eat is one of these things. For the older boys, I have taught how to cook, the younger ones it is making a sandwich, or whipping cream, making cordial drinks (which they are sooo much better than me now)  even mixing pancake mixture.. Since we watched the Junior Masterchef competition on TV, our kids have really enjoyed getting in there. Arama has made dinner for almost the last week and a half. It was first a trade off so he wouldn't do the dishes after but he seems to be enjoying it. I am more than happy to accomodate too as they will be able to feed themselves when they get bigger - mission etc. Hikawera has also risen to the challenge or mastering the skill of getting himself something to eat. He often hums when he does it (that means he is happy). This day, I watched him place out the 5 slices of bread and them syst

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.
