The Latest Craze...

Dad got Sing Star for Christmas. He was very excited. Last night we had Vicky and the boys, our neighbours, over for a 'Sing Star Battle'. Watch out if you come to stay ... better bring your singing voice.

Christmas Day at our place...

 We started at 6am! Santa was generous with his gifts.

 Grant couldn't wait till the afternoon to open his pressies, so he got to open one at 'Santa Time'.

 Everyone got something festive to wear at the table.

 Yoda didn't want to miss out on the festivities.

 Fiona had a natural motherly touch with Reece.

 Tim's most exciting moment was finding the guinea-pig hutch.
The guinea-pigs arrive when we return from holiday.

Reece is the latest recipient (victim) of Pa's baby voice conversations.

Port Hills Walk

Today we had a walk at Victoria Park, up to the Sign of the Kiwi to get an ice-cream, but we found out it was closed (jolly earthquake!). We had a really fun time and we got an ice-cream after instead.

Koalie Returns

Yoda has got the sneezes so we went to the vet to check him out. In the waiting room, on the very top of the  toy box I saw Koalie sitting looking like he'd been played with by lots of happy kids. I picked him up straight away and started hugging him. I can't believe I found him there. He is finally home after 5 months, I'm so happy.

The Big Match

This afternoon we played a game of basketball, 2 on 2. It was a really fun game. Mum got hit on the nose a bit, but other than that everyone had a good fair game. Tim didn't like it at the start, but he got better and better. Me and Dad made a good team.

Getting Christmasy

Buster Sitting

Last weekend when we came home from karate we found someone fluffy in our backyard. He is a guinea-pig called Buster. Noah our friend gave him to us for the week because he was going away for a holiday on the Gold Coast. Buster is very cute and a big fat fluff ball. We like to bring him into the back room and play with him in Fluffy World. But Yoda is a hazzard when he is around, so we try to keep Buster away from Yoda.

Yeeha, December is here.

We love December. Every morning we open the advent calendar and follow the clue to find a character from the nativity scene that is hidden somewhere around the house. Today we found the sheep grazing under the trampoline.
