Jack came to Auckland with me on the latest tri. We stayed with the AK Stones and made sure we got in a good fishing trip. No huge fish but got a keeper. The kids had fun and we made sure we let them get a swim in at Motuhi on the way back.

A day at the Hood!
We took a few families to Lake Hood today for a play on the boat and to let the little kids swim in the lake. Had a blast and we even had a 30 min thunder and lightening storm directly overhead! Sarah got up on the wakeboard and the kids all did the biscuit. Next trip we’ll head to McKenzie country!
A Stoney Christmas!
Here’s a pile of photos from the Stone family Christmas 2013! It was an epic bash and total chaos for a week but in a good way! We had the best time – love them all!
Squirtle!… A great Day at the Hood!
Meet ‘Squirtle’ the new addition to the Stone clan. 30yo, retro ski boat with a beasty motor. We just couldn’t miss the water fun this summer! Christened her on Lake Hood today with a few good friends and had a blast. It goes like snot! All the boys got out on the ski biscuit and I wasn’t able to make Jack fall off!
The clan. Arthur, Isaac, Thomas, Esther, Karolyn, Dean, Charli and Billy!
Jack and the boys trying to figure out how to get the Ski Biscuit going…
Livvy’s good mate Charli..
And this is what happened to Jack when he slipped climbing on! Good effort eh!
He got home, read one page and fell asleep. Mush have been a good day!
Fun Family Shots!
Here’s a few cool photos we took today. Just love them all, cool kids and a great time!
Julian’s 40th bash!
Some random photos from my 40th today. Was a great day, perfect weather, good friends and heaps of fun. The kids had a ball! Nice to have the Pakuranga Stones visit and looking forward to seeing the Howick Stones at Christmas!
A little pruning!
After the 130kph winds last night we woke to a little bit of pruning work. After spending the day helping mates, we got off pretty lightly! Just another adventure!
Cool Kids!
Some nice photos of the kids. Love them heaps!
Auckland Family Trip
The Stone crew popped up to Auckland this week to see the Auckland family. I’ll post a few updates, but here’s a few pics from a nice day out on the water today. We went to Waiheke, Matiatia, Rangitoto and Mototapu. They all loved it. Livvy was a little nervous of the speed but got the hang of it in the end.
Olivia’s “Now you see me…” magic…
The Karangahake footbridge…
Jack at Waihi mine. What a huge hole in the ground!
Say no more…
The kids love their gran…
If you ever wondered what a pack of prize nut bars looks like, here’s a good example:
Livvy having a bit of fun at Grant and Liz’s place.
Some quiet time with Grandad.
We took the kids for a trip to the Auckland Museum. They had a ball, but Livvy was pretty tired. Still was quite an impressive place to visit.
And who’s the big kid at Mac D’s playground?
It was a pretty rough flight home but we got there in the end!
Just a great day…
Sarah was doing a horsey day so I took the kids out to the Groynes for a play and bit of fresh air. They had a blast and just ran around heaps. Was great to see them having fun! They’re cool kids and really love each other!
Quick GoKart project
When we got back, Olivia was asleep in the car, so Jack and I hit the workshop and in an hour or so we knocked up the start of a pretty cool GoKart! It’s just a push one, but it’ll be fun. They picked up a couple of extra wheels for the front from Bunnings today so we’ll finish the front axle tomorrow.
