Jack’s trip to Auckland…
Jack at Auckland airport…
Jack in a tree at the Vivians. Sorry, just realized I forgot to get some other photos! Bother! Next time…
Still, was awesome to catch up with Rose, Ben and the kids. Got a nice cuddle with baby Charlotte as well 
Always a good time at the Dobbs. Jack below is getting to grips with Timothy’s compound bow. He did pretty good! The boys took him up the tree hut as well for some bug-hunting!
Two cool kids…
A day out fishing with the boys…
Zach into a whopper!
We caught up with Nana and went up the Sky Tower for a bite to eat with a good view. He loved it.
Love my family!
I think my family is awesome – ‘nuff said!
The cheeky faces of Livvy…
And of course Jack!
What a good lad. Check this out…
And the dynamic duo…

And of course – Super Sarah!
Easter with the family…
We all decided to hang out for the day today and just spend some quality time. I drove the Stone crew up to the Hurunui river for a spot of trout fishing. Jack and Sarah did some excellent casting!
Then it was off to the Waimak by the mouth for a quick spot of Salmon fishing. Heaps of people down there and Jack had a go at a bigger rod. He ended up having fun by throwing himself in the river!
Family Fishing Day at the Rakaia Gorge.
We all went to the Rakaia Gorge today to have a fish. I really wanted to get Jackson started with the spinning rod and also try him on the fly rod.
It turns out he was an excellent caster, and hit the far bank a few times! I also have him a go with the fly rod and he seemed to get the idea.
A few small rises, but they were mostly tiddlers. It was really just a great practice day for Jack to learn his casting.
I think I’ll take him up a real back country river next and see if we can get him into a trout! He’ll love that!
My cool kid…
Check out this wee baby brown trout that gobbled my nymph! it was tiny! Still Jack was happy to see a fish.
Even Livvy got into it with her little rod!
Trip to Auckland
We took a wee holiday to Auckland to see the family and have a break. Here’s a few random photos…
Great mates!
Jack and Livvy just adore each other. They’re such good mates and I think Jack is loving that she’s getting old enough to play with him.
Summer dinners…
BBQ, Ginger Beer, Fishing shows on tv, wife, kids… what more do you need!
