And the Hamilton Adventures Begin

It is an exciting time for us in Hamilton. Our new home is a couple of blocks from the centre of town. We have had to get used to street lights, and neighbours and electricity 24/7. It is great to be 3 doors down and across the road from cousins, the kids LOVE that. We are also a block away from the lake. It has a beauty of a playground and the kids can spend hours there. For those that like running or a walk, you can go around the lake and will take you between 1/2 to an hour to go right round. It's so pretty! (There is even Zumba but that's another story lol)

We have also ventures to the pools on those hot sunny afternoons. The kids played and swam with their cousins and Karleen and I enjoyed just relaxing, lounging around an then going for a dip to cool down. It was so nice to just sit still and enjoy.

Hamilton has certainly made a first good impression on us!

"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.
