Player Of The Day 26/07/08


Logan scored his first ever try today!! He had a great game & brought home the player of the day trophy. (along with the dirty jersey's for me to wash!!) Rugby has done him proud this season - he just loves it!

Morris & Morris at Kidzone 13/07/08

We watched the Morris & Morris show at Kidzone. These guys are great at involving the children & adults alike. When it was all over, and everyone had left (Bar a few of us talking outside the door of the hall where the show had been) - we check out the noise in the hall. This is what we found... Isn't it cool??!! It's not a technique they'd incorporated into their show, but it doesn't look like it would be far off! Well done guys.

Kidzone Festival 13/07/08






We made it to Kidzone again this year - Fit and well (for that day anyway!). The boys (with some assistance) made little woodwork Jeeps this year. They are fantastic. They got their faces painted & hair done. They had a go on the little battery operated jeeps. Shane trusted Logan to drive their one, and Reuben drove our one. Didn't take out any cones, nor did we have any crashes - it was fun. They also made their own traffic light drinks & apple pies. Played with bubbles and also some past it looking snow. Had a go at paintball shooting too.. The list goes on. When you go there, there's just not enough hours in your day. Took in the Morris & Morris show - they are the guys doing the juggling. Will try and upload a video in the next posting...

Kingswood Bush Scenic Reserve 11/07/08





No - I can ensure you - we saw no Kingswood's there (unless there's a bird species with that name??)!! Funny name for a reserve. Funnily enough this isn't far from where we used to live in 1994!! Lovely short walk to do with the kids (We actually did it twice - as it's pretty short). The Tui's in there sound just gorgeous, and get a load of that tall tree. Was a nice way to go out and get some fresh air with the kids over the holidays.
