Ethan had an amazing lesson on Tuesday, he can swim freestyle perfectly now and is FAST. He was so focused on Tuesday, and worked so hard. I was very proud of him! Athletics Ribbon So Tuesdays are full on for Ethan, he has kindy in …
Our drive back home from Whatawhiwhi took us 13hrs, but we had a great day. Ethan was so tired he fell asleep in the car – which he never does! First stop, the awesome Coopers Beach. We had only been driving 35 minutes but we …
It is a rare day indeed when Ethan stops what he is doing at Kindy and takes some time to paint. That’s why each of these little masterpieces is so special!
Thanks to the amazing bFM and my uncanny prize-winning abilities, Dave, Ethan and I were given the deluxe treatment on sunny Sunday at the bFM Vodafone Summer Series. I won 2 Nokia Music Xpress cell phones each with $200 credit plus a VIP picnic spot at the concert, complete with a massive banquet – entrees, lunch, desert and a cooler of wine and cold drinks! It was awesome. Sunday was very hot and sunny, the music was great and we all really enjoyed our afternoon. Dave and I kept looking at each other in disbelief;

Typical, but we discovered the BEST, most deserted beach on our last day. Karikari Beach North is accessed by a dodgy gravel DOC road and I had never even noticed the sign for it before. It was stunning. We had another fantastic day with cold …
We hit another of our favourite spots during our holiday – beautiful Rangiputa with its amazing white sand and crystal clear water. Tara was stoked on the shell selection, I think she could look at shells for hours – or maybe she just needed that much time away from us!
