January Blues?!

The only thing blue here is the sky! I thought I would update you all with some photos before mum arrives, the kids go back to school and I go back to work. Then the time will wizz past and it will be Christmas again before we know it!!!

So here is a 'snapshot' of what we have been up to in January......
















Mountain biking in the mud


























Swimming in the sea. Max and I both entered a couple of 'Ocean Swims' Max doing a 750m and 1000m swim and me doing 1500m, 2000m and 3500m swims.







Preparing for action!






Bumper boats

























The longest 'hot' water slide in New Zealand - 450 ft long and
pretty fast too!
Partying in the sun Playing at the beach
As you will notice we have all spent a lot of time in water of some sort - but isn't that what summer is all about?

Correct its January and we have no blue sky, blue hands and feet tho as its been a bit nippy this winter and more cold forecast brrr. Its really quite good having a real winter instead of cold rain (as opposed to warm rain in summer). Lets just hope we have a real summer too!! Enjoy your Mums visit, I think she'll be glad to get there after a long flight. Have a great time.

All looks great. Max and Tom are shooting up I see. That is one big bike that Tom has. Still pretty cold here. Was -3 yesterday morning but almost tropical today at 4 degrees. Look forward to catching up on your news when Grandma returns.
