Wot A Weekend

Well we have just had our weekend off work. We decided we would stay home instead of driving all over the country to visit the fambam. Makes a nice change. Also there was a burnout competition on in Dargarville this went for the weekend so we went along witht he little petrol heads to see it.

Well I have never seen Darryl so quite and still just from all the nice vintage, v8, v6, 4 cylinders, hot rods. All that smoke and some even had fire. that was Blaze too if she could of she would have been right up against the cage so she could get the first look at them. We all got really wet as there was a freak pour down late in the afternoon, next year we will go a little bit more organised with Tarps and raincoats just incase. Andora and her partner came for a visit as well which was good for Ash to see her mum.

My brother-in-law spent all day in the beer tent, we were like wot a waste you can't see anything from there and it sooo dare of the alcohol, we just going to wait til we get home. Cause someone has to drive.

Kids went for a ride on the merry-go-round when carts were having a break they looked so bored I had to take photos of them.

Can't belief it is so expensive for our kids to go to school with fees and stationery then there is the photocopying and trips and they not even at highschool. Hopefully they learning heaps.

Well that me for now.

It's Raining

Well this is pretty boring but it is finally raining here, we have had no raing for six weeks and it has been ridiculously hot.

Blaze and Darryl went o the beach the other day and we had a ball, they just got home from school and are sback in the pool in the rain the water is so warm. Well its time to go milk the cows again.

School Holidays are Over!!!

Well the new school term has begun.

The kids are back into school, catching up with friends. The uniforms, making of lunches and doing homework is now got to be put back into some routine. Fun fun fun!!!

That means that I have to get organised again, to make sure that all their stuff is ready before I go to work.

We took them to the a&p show yesterday what a ball. Kids went on merry-go-round, bouncy castle and bumper cars. That was a crack up. Ashlee and I did the Kamikazi I have not done that for years, still a good ride, got a few bruises for the fun though. Ash had never been on it before so that made it even more funny for me.

Vince went straight to the slug gun booth and won us all teddy bears. Then he threw some darts and won more teddies and a fly catcher thing (kids really like this)... Keeps them amused for hours.

well can't think of anything else will go read my angels a story before they head off to bed so they don't wake late for school.

bye for now

Waitangi Day

Well it is Waitangi day here and I have been to work and are home now. I have finished cleaning the house man that was hard work, (harder than milking the cows). Kids are back off to school tomorrow wop wop!!! I have loved having them home for the holidays but they are sick of me and are getting really bored very fast. even the cows don't keep them happy now.f

We going to the school for a swim today because the heat is already upon us, the kids tired of their pool and want to be able to jump and dive. here is a few my grey hairs to add to the collection. Things we never considered dangerous I now think of as NO WAY are my kids doing that. Well thats me for the day!!!
