A "GRAND" weekend

This weekend me and Dylan had Grandma and Grand-dad come visit from Taranaki, mum and dad had a night out so me and Dylan were very happy to see them arrive on Friday.

On Saturday Jakob and G'dad and Dad went in to the city looking at Cars, Dad took me and G'dad to a really cool shop where they sold cars like Sally from light' McQueen movie.

Then when we got back home we went to the Santa Parade in Lower Hutt where me and Dylan got ice blocks to cool off while we waited for Santa to come along.

After the Parade Mum and Dad got ready to go out and me and Jakob had yummy fish and chips from our local store, Grandma said they were the greatest.

On Sunday we had lots more cool stuff to do with the Grandies, DJ got towed up to the park in reverse by G'Dad and he athough that was really funny and i rode my bike.

We had such a good weekend that after our grandies left me and Jakob decided to do a spot of fishing in the sandpit, after our fishing i was showing Dad my rugby techniques by pushing the coffee table across the lounge..

A huge weekend

This last weekend was packed full of adventure for me and Dylan, to get the tale started we must go back to Saturday morning. Dad was telling earlier in the week that there was a really cool model train expo on at Queens Wharf, Mum and Dylan dropped us off at the bottom of the gorge and we rode into the expo....... what a cool time had... and after the expo i asked dad if he wanted some pub chips so of course dad said yes and we went to Chicago bar and had pub chips in the sun with some cleansing drinks...

After we were cleansed we decided to cruise the waterfront looking at the wild life, Dad said it's so great that the sun's out and i said yep.. Here's the view we had..

After Dad's guided nature tour we rode back to meet Mum and Dylan at the bottom of the gorge again and we went home.....

I (Dylan) also had a cool day too, but because i'm too small i had to play with my toys inside, i foud Jakob's Dinosaur jig saw and started to put it together, i really had to think about this as it was a bit tricky... you can see by my photo that i was really thinking about it.

Later that day Leicester and Nicola came over for a BBQ dinner, we called it the lion came to dinner BBQ, we even had dinner outside it was so warm, Mum said that Dad was naughty the next day because him and Leicester stayed up too late. I said that it would be really cool to go for another bike ride with mum and Dylan as well so we all went to Tunnel gully just north of Upper Hutt. That was a big ride as we had to ride up a really steep hill and then we got to the old train track where we rode across the top till we stopped for lunch, after our lunch we went zooming really fast down the hills and over the bridges till we got to the stream where me and Dylan played in the stream.

We were really tired after so much fun that we slept in the car all the way home...

weekend

Hi

Jakob and I had a busy weekend, and it all started on Friday night. We went to Oscar's house for his 2nd birthday and Jakob got to play with his big sister Una who is his friend from Playcentre. We all had lots of fun running around the backyard (but I managed to bump in to a tree - see the forehead in the photo). Oscar had a great cake it was a train and carriages, I really enjoyed especially the jelly beans filling the carriages all the different colours of the rainbow.

On Saturday we were out for a bike ride with Daddy and then out to Johnsonville to do some christmas shopping, I flirted with all the ladies in the shops. When I smile I get lots of attention.

Daddy looked after us that night as Mummy had to go to work.

The next day we went to look at some tents so we can go camping this summer. Sounda like fun to me, lots of open space to run around. Jakob and I were running in and out of the tents. Lots to explore. Then we went to visit Leicester and Nicola before coming home to wash the car, well actually it was mainly Daddy as I did some lego building and Jakob was supervising Daddy from his chair (with the chippies, though he did share some with us).

Love Dylan and Jakob.

music time

Hi

This week Mummy and I made a trumpet/saxophone. I had lots of fun making music, Daddy kept asking me to go and play it in the bedroom - must be jealous of my lung capacity?

I even used it to entertain Dylan when he woke up after his nap (with a bit of help, I told Mummy I was just checking him and 'he woked up by himself'). And I read a book to him, DJ really seems to like thomas like me.

I've been looking out for Dylan lately, like at playcentre where I helped him on the slide, when the photo was taken I was saying "its all right Dylan, I will catch you....".

Signing off from Jakob 'Never smile at a crocodile......hmm hmm hmm (Mummy doesn't know the rest of the words yet)

Love J and DJ
