Wow! Still snow around!

I took Nick Reekie and Jackson to Akaroa for a blat in the boat. No fish, but I was amazed to see there was still snow on the hills!

Holiday in Hanmer!

Here’s some photos from our holiday in Hanmer Springs. We went up there for a few days to have a break from CHCH. Had a great time! We were with Rich, Aimee and Nim Poole. They’re pretty cruisy guys to hang with and we managed to do a few fun things. Played in the snow, café’s, bike riding, walks, Indian food and movies.

My personal hilight was convincing Sarah to take a dip (in the snow) at the Hanmer Springs hot pools one night. We just soaked in 37 degree awesomeness until we turned into prunes.

Here’s Jack thinking about throwing a snowball at Rich!

The family climbing a wee bank… Jack slipped down soon after the photo was taken. He loved it though.

I took my boy for an adventure on his bmx and my bike down to the local river. There was a track beside the creek which was pretty muddy so we had a blast of a time. Wore him out nicely!

This is the view from the bach.

We had a pretty hairy drive back from Hanmer. The roads were fairly treacherous but we all got back ok. When we got back though, we were greeted with a totally white Christchurch and even our place was covered!

The concert at daycare…

One of the kids was leaving so they put on a concert. Here’s some of Jack’s costumes. He could be on Shortland Street!

Jack and his bike…

He’s turning into a speedy, crazy biker boy!  I took Jackson to McLeans Island today for a ride around the track. He’s a speedy thing! He weaved through all the trees and rode up the bumps. We did about 2km tonight which is a pretty good ride for a 4 year old!

Check out below the tabletop ramp I’m making him in the shed. Every wee lad needs a ramp to act dangerous on!
