Wow - it has been a while!

Now my problem is, where so I begin?

I have just been downloading a whole lot of photos off my camera, and thought that I should really post something, as apparently there are people that read my blog! Who knew?

I have a few photos of Muriwai from when a small group of us went there one Sunday afternoon a few weeks back. It was a fantastic sunny day, so we made the most of the opportunity to enjoy the fresh air and have a little fun.

Here is a great photo of Lauren posing for the camera.









Jordan was clearly exhausted by the picnic lunch.









Tiffany did not take her swimsuit with her, figuring that she would just have a little paddle in the water. How naive! We will let her off this time for not knowing what a west coast beach can be like - dry sand one minute, and thigh deep water the next. Needless to say she was still slightly damp when it was time to leave.
Part of the getting wet was her own fault, although she tried to blame Kyla. Her side of the story is that she got wet when Kyla tried to splash her or some such nonsense. Here is photographic proof that she got wet trying to push Kyla over! Clearly she is not to be trusted! ;)

Jordan, Josiah and Braden spent most of the time either playing games with the Dads or digging in the sand. They appeared to be having fun.... if the amount of sand on them was anything to go by.

Lauren, Zach, Annelise and Jayna spent a
crazy amount of time jumping over waves... refusing to admit that they were cold. Apparently their lips turning blue does not in fact mean that they are cold. Neither does shivering. We learn something new every day.

And then there were the ones who were stuck to the picnic blanket. Still, they appear to be having fun too, and I did see Rachel walking at one point!

So, a great day had by all.
