Touch 2012/13



Touch Rugby has started for the 2012/13 season. This year there were 3 games for the kids to play starting 3:30pm on the Friday afternoon. From there we head across to another field where there is another game for Kawea, a game for Arama and then a game for Arama (dad) and I. By the time our Fridays are finished we are home about 8:30-9pm. Daylight savings makes it a lovely afternoon. While the adults play all the kids are playing around the fields, it is safe and everyone looks out for everyone elses kids. We do feel it the next morning though. Takes a while for the old body to get moving again… hehehehe.

Rakai is our little spectator!

    Jessica has her Touch Ruby gala day on Thursday. I loved touch football and i played it until I was 30'ish. Its like your body suddenly remembers every strain and pain and replays it on your body once you hit the 30's.
    I will send the boys photos on Thursday so they can see their cousin in action.

"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!!!!

Monday Night Fun

For those in the same faith as our family - The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, you would be familiar with Family Home Evening. We have ours most times on a Monday evening. Last night we decided to go into the local school and play netball and on the play gyms that are there. It was a lot of fun. I think I surprised Teancum at how good I was at shooting into the Netball goal. Even Renata, Hikawera and Rakaipaka had a go. There are 2 play gyms at the school. One smaller one at the front of the school for the younger children and one really big one at the back in front of the school pool. This one is really high. If you look at the photo with Teancum in it and note that he is about 2 inches off being taller than me, you will get an idea of how tall this is. The slide is perfect for speed!! (and you know ours LOVE speed). To make it that much more exciting they decided to sit on their shirts and slide down. Needless to say they had a ball....        ...
