Been meaning to post a few of these

Some are from a few months (or more) back , but sitting here scrolling back through a bunch that should have been up on the blog! 


Kai with coach Andre and coach Dave after the last regular season game.


 Jenaya and I after the Greenpower 50km


Just a random leg - like you expect to see walking down the street ?


Nic and I at lunch after road testing her new Nikon 
Noodles and beer down under the escalator (HK)


Artist at work 


I love this shot back into Central.  I just got lucky - It was an iPhone special from The Star Ferry
On the way home after footy in Kowloon with Kai


And this.  Just made chuckle 
Always something interesting on every street if you look hard enough.

How good is this?

Every now and then you dig up a gem from the archives.
But this piece of genius came from David C today and absolutely got us talking
And thinking back through all our great New York memories

Central Park April 2000 - The Wiggles in concert


Yellow Wiggle - Moose - Jenaya - Purple Wiggle 
And Red Wiggle in the background.

And the boys had been out partying big time !


And while I'm digging up some nostalgia
Here's another one I've been going to post fir a while.
Don't worry Kai boy - your turn is coming soon :-)

Just your average Saturday night

Kata beach - Phuket 

Sitting on our deck enjoying the view and waiting for some colourful sunset shots.
Taking a few minutes to reflect and enjoy our photos. A couple of them here just to whet the appetite.
Nicole has been creative as always. I'm just the IT guy !


Feeling very well rested, and enjoying a frosty Singha right now.





Good morning ....

And it is a great morning from where I sit with my coffee to start the day.


We're having a very nice time - doing not very much at all !



Some more photos later this evening I'm sure

Great day to unwind

And afternoon cocktails not too far away I'd say ....

Happy Easter

And what a Happy Easter it was.  Dot with the Lot arrived Thursday before Good Friday and we haven't stopped since woo hooo.  Saturday saw Dot's Magical Mystery tour kick off, then Easter saw the Bunny arrive and leave soooooo much Chocolate anyone would think Willy Wonker lived at Moose Manor.  Easter Monday, The Sun was & still is shinning & Big Wave Bay was a calling our name.  5 hours of sun, fun & surf what a gorgeous day Yipeeeee. Now some we have some dinner guest and Beef Noodle Soup planned for dinner.  Life is grand.

The Week In Review

Not that the week is anywhere near over yet, just thought I would get the hope on it.

So this week has been a busy busy week, It started with the rugby sevens, and just kept rolling from there.  With Easter & Spring break just around the corner and the very exciting arrival of Nanny aka Dot with the Lot, we have a big couple of days fast approaching.

So lets get up to date, like I said it started with the Rugby Sevens, 3 fun filled days of rugby, rugby, rugby - not for the faint hearted.

Marty and Kai were lucky enough to meet up with some friends who had acquired some front row seats - well they arrived at the stadium at 6.45am YAY them.  Being this close to the action proved very exciting for the young men.















Oh and they made some new Kiwi buddies.


They had so much fun, so I decided to join them on the Sunday - and I must admit it was a blast jun good old fashion fun fun fun....


While the boys were at the rugby on the Saturday night Noodle pop aka Rose had a game of football, this week I was in charge of being her number one supporter and I must say I did a absolutely fantastic job - if I must say so myself.  With Rose's first goal firmly in the back of the net (insert woo hooo here) excitement was building - I was leading the charge :), then came the second (insert another woo hoo here) Could this night get any better......... YES YES YES it could and it did. Noodle pop's 3rd goal was just just as exciting maybe more - HAT TRICK - than her first (A Huge woo hoo intsert here) life was pretty fine. Things only got better for our little super star, Noodles final goal of the evening was absolutely smoking  Grandad (& Poppy) would have been suitable impressed - whoop whoop - 4 goals for the young lady what a night - super proud parent moment (insert happy dance here) - maybe this is why Rose is looking for alternative transport to the next match. Funny thing is I got the credit from the team, apparently I'm the lucky charm - Sorry Moose :)





Noodle pop you truly are a fabulous sports gal, you make us so so so proud. The way you conduct yourself on that football pitch is very inspiring - Love you & sorry about the dance :)
