And the beat goes on.....






The Kids went back to school yesterday, and life is getting back to normal.  I'm trying to get back into the routine and as you can imagine, it is super quiet around here, luckily I still have Kingy Bing to keep me entertained.  The break from school went quickly. We had fun in the sun the first week, managed to visit the beach, and the park, even took a trip to the botanical gardens with my coffee group and the kids got to run around and feed the ducks.

The 2nd week of the holidays went well.  Hunter went to a Rugby camp for 3 mornings with his buddy William. Unfortunately the rain returned, so it limited our activities a little.

League was rained out on Saturday, so we made a spur of the moment decision to go to snowplanet, an indoor snowdome.  You can check it out at  www.snowplanet.co.nz.  It's a really neat set up, with a restaurant at the bottom of the mountain with a huge window facing the snow, so I sat in there with Kenzie and Kingston, and some hot chocolate (mmm yummy) while Craig and Hunter took to the slope.  It was very cool to watch them, and Hunter was awesome for his first time on skis, way better than I was my first time!  I didn't get any pictures unfortunately, but he really enjoyed it.  William had a sleepover that night, and on Sunday we took the kids to the Museum, to see the new Secrets exhibit, it was pretty interesting, and all the kids, especially Kingston loved it.
