Firsts

Lot’s of firsts this weekend – first swim (or paddle rather, brrr!) at St Clair beach.

First visit to East Taeri (great church but rather a long way to go…) We took Robbie McGuinness to church with us (and pot luck after) and ended up seeing him at tea time as well. We’re lending him a blow up bed but of course, that was easier said than done. There is still quite a bit of stuff in boxes – but we managed to empty 2 in the process of looking for the bed and the pump. Cheers Rob!!

First visit by Australians – Phil Tondle (Ex Trinity youth group days) brought his bride to visit. It is very odd to see these young fellas growing up and reproducing, well, hopefully a little way off for these guys, but you know what I mean.

It is also very odd to not be dashing off to youth group or music practise but no doubt we will adjust. All this non allocated time with fill up quickly once SOM starts no doubt.

We’ve had a week of fab weather and Janine is off to her first school camp tomorrow so we are all hoping that it will hold.

So we are all trucking along here tickety-boo.
