Finn!

Finn in his Saints tee - the did another Phoenix lead out at the stadium and he got his arms signed by the captain Ross Aloisi and the capitan Ricky Herbert!! Noel was a tad jealous!!


And how to sleep sitting up!

Finn's 10th Birthday






Finn had a fantastic time at his 10th birthday party - can't believe he is a metric teenager now!! - we went to the new Strike Entertainment Centre in the Hutt - brand new and fantastic - most of them had never played lazer strike before so weren't sure what to expect! and who wants to believe your mother when they tell you she played when she was younger and loved it!!! They wouldn't stop talking about how awesome it was when they finished!!! Thank you to everyone who sent Finn birthday pressies - he loved the lot!!

Scary boy!




We went to Mitre10 and they had face painters there... well all the other kids were getting butterflys, tigers and princess type faces - of course this is what Finn wanted!!! very very cool!!

Halloween

Finn the boxer - the next Shane Cameron perhaps?
Well here are the scary Halloween kids from the street!!!

And first game of softball for this season!!

Men at work!
