Cousin Time!

We LOVE cousin time in our house. These past holidays, we were lucky to have several with us at different times of the holiday. One day we took Emeka, Jazz, Truth, Ashely,Tawhaio, and all our kids (except Nauvoo who was still at her Hamilton Holiday) to the School Pool for a swim





 and then to the local park for some Basketball, tennis and even a touch of Netball. It was so great to watch everyone enjoy themselves and have a tonne of laughs. And they never seem to stop growing.!

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!!
