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!

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!!
