Chris and I went with Zach to his football tournament in Blenheim. We stayed with the team, so it was a weekend of rough housing, football, showers and Nerf gun wars. A Nerf gun shoots foam pellets, and the whole team decided to invest in guns which happened to be on sale at the Warehouse. Every spare moment was spent in huge battles. They conducted themselves well on the field, losing their first game one nil to the eventual tournament winners, who took out their final game three nil. Zach played well, and we have some great photos.
Janine and Katarina manged to avoid having a party while we were away, keeping the dog and pot plants alive. Janine has decided to invest in contact lenses, and is enjoying having peripheral vision for a change. You certainly notice her green eyes much more now.
Hannah has had a lovely time in Oamaru with her grandparents, biking and exploring the local creek. She was pleased to come back home, and the holidays are flying by!
