Happy 3rd Birthday Livvy!

3 years old today! She’s a big girl now! We’re having a party with some friends tomorrow but today we just did a nice day with just us. Took her out to dinner in the evening, pretty late but she felt special! She’s an awesome girl and growing more fun every day!

Gran and Poppa Visit

When in Auckland, we popped in to see Gran and Poppa. They love the kids and the kids had a blast. We totally love these guys!

Quick trip to fish at The Coromandel

I took the family out for a cruisy day on the water. It was such a great day it was glassy conditions most of the time! We went around Waiheke, then ducked across the Happy Jack’s Island in the Coromandel. We saw workups, Dolphins, Penguins and got enough snapper for a good feed for dinner!

Jack can now bait his hooks himself and Livvy finally got her sealegs and now loves it!

A nice day at the beach

We spent the afternoon at Cockle Bay with the family, just hanging out. It was great to let the kids play, pickup crabs, get sunburnt and just have a great time.

An Adventure Day!

We took the family out today for a wee adventure. First stop was the Orton Bradley Park where we went for a nice tramp. The kids did well…

Then we went to Diamond Harbour Wharf for a spot of fishing and Jack had a swim, well actually a jump off the wharf from a swinging gantry rope. Great fun! See the vids below!

Fun day on the water

Sarah took the kids to the Groynes for a play on the water. Check out Jack’s smile! He’s loving it! I reckon he’s going to get into kayaking – he’d be great!
