Guess what we did for Ariki's birthday on the 10th (and a day or so either side!)

Ariki writes for upstart

Ariki was asked at the end of last year to write for an issue of upstart.  Here is the copy we received which you can find for real in the Feb/March issue of upstart!

Ariki and Tamati's new mate...

We forgot to load this on, last year but this was taken when we visited the local Nice Marine land.

When we move, we are looking forward to going more often.
There was also a Waterpark, cowboy park and a theme park next door.

Our school is 5 minutes away - Yay!

White Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone

As most of you know we are in Carcassonne for Christmas. We are with Amelia, Helen, Alex, Chloe, Margie, Alban, Catherine and Henry. We had fun catching up with everyone. we spent an afternoon in the city of carcassonne where we went iceskating in a rink set up in the square for a month over christmas, we got caught in a Parade and then went on the ferris wheel.

Christmas was cool we got heaps of presents and had a yummy late lunch...plus all the yummy treats that santa had left us.

We (well really mum wanted) a white Christmas and we got it (well it was on boxing day!) but it really cool...we went down stairs in the morning and saw that there was snow upstairs so we went and woke Mum and Dad. We had a snowfight with Dad and then later made snowmen. It was pretty hard until aunty Catherine told us how to do it easily by rolling the snow into balls.

Hope you all had fun.

Bye for now Ariki and Tamati (and Mum and Dad)

First Snow

We decided to come home from Montpellier via the Millau viaduct
(photos to come later) and on the way home we found our first snow of
the season. Here we are throwing snowballs at Dad in a little town
called St Leon near millau.
Ps... Don't eat yellow snow!
