The great hike

Marc and the kids decided to walk up to the centre of New Zealand.

Sabastian was the main photographer. So enjoy the photos.

I have edited the ones of the pretty girls he happened to catch in the photos.

The Blue Marlin

On Sunday Marc and the four short people went to see the MV Blue Marlin arriving in Nelson.

It is the largest lift ship in the world.

Transports oil rigs, war ships and other heavy loads around the world.

It is semi-submersable to enable it to load it's cargo.

Happy Birthday Sullivan

ONE today.

Sullivan loved his special dinner complete with candle.

Molly presented the "cake" and assisted Sullivan to blow out his candle.

Thanks also to SAM, Jack and Liam

(just out of photo shot), for their fantastic singing.

Photos of life. No narrative, just enjoy...

Dad, what are you doing?

The story:

A couple of nights ago, I awoke to find a slightly damp pussy cat in my bed.

I later realised as I got out of my lovely bed,

that Sully had been for a great adventure in the night to the beach.

My bed was full of sand!

Tonight Sullivan helped daddy to clear the drains with the heavy rain we have. (NOT!!!)

No beach tonight Sully!!

Miss Molly has new socks

Fat Tom and Arty. What a good looking team!

Heading off to the beach with Fat Tom (the tractor), and Artemis

One last run before we store Arty over winter

SAM enjoys the ride
What a nice looking pair

Another great day

I cannot get over how quick my family are growing up.

Sabastian is coming up to 11, Jack is 5, and Miss Molly is just looking so much like a big girl at 4. WOW!!

I love you dad!!

Just some fun images of fun time with dad.

Side By Side

Molly got a cool digital studio for her birthday.

So now she can sit right beside dad while he is busy looking at boats.
