The new house extension!

Check out the new Dog house I whipped up for our new puppy ‘Bob’. Not a bad effort if I do say so myself.  😉

A visit to the Sallie’s ‘Big Boys Toys’ day!

While getting a new front tyre on the motorbike at the Suzuki shop, I chatted with the guy doing the sausage sizzle and it turned out he was the Pastor of the Linwood Salvation Army.

He told me they were having a ‘Big Boys Toys’ day so the next weekend, Jack and I trotted off to the church. Awesome service and lots of toys!

Below is Jack standing by the famous Brittan bike. Andrew Stroud the famous superbike rider gave a great speech!

It took Jackson about 30 secs to find my model bike (Suzuki Katana).

They had decorated the Church with all sorts of cool toys. Bikes, Kayaks, Kites, Scooters etc…

Then he spotted a plane so crawled up inside.

He loved the tank though. When he climbed in it I could hardly get him out! He kept asking if I could take it home.  😉 That’s my boy!

Jack’s writing!

Sarah wrote the word “Emily” on some paper and left the room. When she came back, Jack had written the name a number of times of the paper! What a clever boy we have!

Sarah and Rhyan saying hi…

I was in a business meeting with a chap in Dallas and Sarah rocked on up to the window with her horse to say hi  😉 Love our industry!

Meet the new member of the family. ‘Bob’ the dog!

We decided to get Jackson a dog. This is Bob the Cairn Terrier. Silly name but Jack named him. 🙂 Look how happy he is – he totally loves Bob!
