Hikawera turns 6

In May/June we have 4 birthdays two weeks apart from each other.  Early June is Hikawera's Birthday. He was so excited about this birthday, I don't know why! He would remind us every day for about a week and a half before hand that his birthday is coming up! Wow the pressure.

Arama had to go to Samoa on his birthday for the 50th jubilee/Anniversary but we made it a fun day anyway. We went shopping the night before for his presents and found a great science kit that you can make your own glow in the dark goo.. He actually really enjoyed it.
The safety equipment

The work in progress and the 'camera' smile.

The kit ready for attack
 We had a yummy chocolate cake for dessert and some more little presents. He was excited to see what dad would be doing with him when he returned.

Love this shot. Hik with his big smile, and Ren with his sad face as he was not able to blow the candles out... 


Arama came home from Samoa Early Tuesday morning. He was planning to take Hikawera to Rainbows end (theme park) but the weather was not too kind. Instead we took advantage of the half price Tuesdays at the movies and we took everyone to see "The Avengers". Awesome movies. 
The kids were so excited as they have not been to the movie theatre since we came back from Fiji... I loved hearing the boys laugh and really get into the movie. Happy Birthday Hik!!

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!!
