Afternoon at the pool.....again!

Yet another day at the pool trying to finish Lake Taupo. Connor playing with Nyah. Dad went for a run. He is off to Melbourne for a week, then onto Mt Manganui for Adventure Training for a week. I am off to outdoor bowls for the next two weeks with a business house team so wish me luck, really looking forward to it, have got a sitter in for the kids ........ hurry up Connor and turn 14!

Lou Lous Laps

Well Shea and I took on a summer challenge at a local pool to swim the distance of lake Taupo, 42kms. I thought over the holiday break we may not make it, but I finished yesterday and Shea has just reached 30km today. If she keeps up her average of 2km for each swim over the next couple of weeks she will make it in time. Deadline finishes on the 29th February. I am so proud of her. It is a 50m pool so she is swimming 40 lenghts at a time. Her highest is 3km and mine was 4.2km. Go Shea Go!!!

Nyah off to Birthday.

Nyah is off to a mates birthday party. She has no shortage of friends this girls and got her first ride on a pony. They had a great time as her mate lives on a farm so horseriding, swimming and camping out were on the menu. Early night for her as I dont think they got any sleep.

Back to School 2008

Well the little darlings are back to school for another year. Although it has only been a week, they have really settled in and so far no complaints. Connor is enjoying everything College has to offer and is enjoying all subjects so far. A regular bus boy from Bulls to Fielding. As you can see mum had a bit of hard time saying goodbye not him. Felt very old and useless but got over it pretty fast.
