Surfing 101

The cheerleader's tent...

Always turn your head ... and look for fins

Fresh? Yes, it's freezing!
:-)

Max's 5th Birthday!

5 years already ... wow!
I LOVE birthdays!

One VERY Cool Book!

A special Maths Book?

... and all my friends came along after school ...

... they never sit this still in school, there must have been a promise of "Cake" ...

... but first, some competition!
Cake time ... Wow, a Batman Helicopter Cake!

My friend Oliver gave me an Archaeology set! First the safety glasses, then the gentle tapping and scraping ...

... followed by brushing...
... and for the less patient a Big Hammer...

But Max was very patient.

In fact, he found ALL the bones and put the Triceratops (not just any old Dinosaur!) back together.

Another Birthday, this time Jade's, at the riding stables!

They had slides ..

 
... and horses ... (and very smelly they are too) .... and a Princess carriage. 
While the Prince is rather bored....

... clearly it makes Princesses happy!

Max, do you think there's any cake left?

Katarina's Birthday! A very happy FOUR!

Overwhelmed by pressie-opening choices...

Max "supervising" the proceedings ..

Yes, that's me.. thanks Grandma & Grandad!

All this gift-opening is getting exciting !

... and from Daddy, my very own "Sit Still!" chair...

A feast!

An Ariel Cake ...
No, Mum & Dad did not pre-approve the crown....

Sooooo ... onto the games

Game 1: How to remove Ariel from the cake without destroying the cake ...
... and hence Cake #2 ... the backup Cake!
To Katarina's right, her best friend, Felix Inseparable!

Magic Flying Mattresses...

The Horror of Halloween... scared Mum and Dad to bits ... (American Tradition, no idea what it's for ...)

At least we still recognized Katarina ...

This little ghoulish creature slinks out the door ...

Our little "Pumpkin" witch

... swings for her supper  ...

While the Vampire seeks out new blood ...

Has anybody seen my broomstick?

A grim collection of scary monsters ...

M-tek Company Boat Trip - Awesome day for it!

The Wind in your hair (except Daddy, because ...)

... and looks a bit sad...

But came home HAPPY!

The fearsome banana!

But we didn't fall in!

HK Disney Trip with Daddy!

We met REAL princesses!

Watched the 3D-Show 3 times (because Daddy had to take one of them to the toilet each time the rain-effects started ...)

We also met this odd-looking Beast!

Swung on Tarzan's Tree-House Rope

Played Tarzan's jungle music...

Rode on every ride that went back and forward ..

... made music ... (going through the little-people castle on a boat)

Riding the Space-ship!

Our own little glow-worm...

Spotting Mini and Mickey from the top of the Bus ...

Wind-down at home...

Yup, we made these ALL by ourselves!

The 4th Bledisloe Cup Game (All Blacks vs. Wallabies), played in Hong Kong ...
At half-time, 2 concerned-looking All-Black Supporters ...

At full-time, 3 Very Happy All-Black Supporters ...!!

And for our Australian friends, just a reminder of the full-time score ... :-)
