More holiday antics

Chris spent most of this week unwell with the flu - a couple of days in bed, and he still isn't 100 %. However he is at least on the mend and was able to preach today. Zachary turns 9 today, and we celebrated with a party for 7 of his friends yesterday. Katarina and Janine helped with the cake and ran most of the party, which was just as well as Hannah and Zachary had soccer in the morning. Often Hannah goes with her coach but he was away, so I went to watch her play. The team was part of the Green Island team that won the tournament a few weeks ago, but I think they must have combined two teams because we won this time 8nil, having lost to them in the semi's.

This semester is going to be a bit of a juggling act as I try to fit in part time work with finishing off my studies. I have a trip to Auckland this week for some meetings.

Katarina went to the Jaffa Race on Monday and managed to win 4th prize! (A $100 dollar hamper of chocolate!) How cool is that?
