Jack’s Auckland visit

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!

Jack doing jumps!

He’s just worked out jumps and can also drop in on the quarter pipe at Rolleston. What a cool kid! Taking after his Dad for sure!

Merry Christmas!!

A big fat Merry Christmas from the Stones!! (Isn’t he cute)…

Jack’s 7th Birthday!

What a weekend! Definitely full on having a pack of 6-7 year olds staying the night! They were ok, plenty of fun, go-karts, bikes, basketball, tenting, fire, games etc! Well done Jack! 7 years old is a bit of a milestone, we’re losing our wee boy and gaining a young man!

The Stone Men’s Selfie…

Interesting comparison. What a difference 34 years makes!! He’s on his way and should grow up big and strong like Dad! Funny eh…

Fresh air for the kids!

I took the kids up to Castle Rock today to get some southern air in their lungs. They had a ball, did well and were completely exhausted at the end of it all.

I thought I’d see how fit Jack was on the way back so I put a rock in his backpack (about 10kg) and he walked back to the truck. It was a practice for me taking him tramping. Good lad though, he toughed it back and earned a chocolate bar!

Rounded off the day with a picnic dinner in a chair tent they made on the lawn. Totally loved hanging with the kids today. They were fantastic!
