Ho ho ho!

We joined the Cousins today to go to Snowplanet to visit Santa's grotto there. It was very cute, and the kids had a fab time playing in the snow. Novel experience for them as it doesn't snow here at all.

After we finished our Snowplanet time, we headed to Orewa and spent the afternoon at the beach, in the play ground and then on the beach digging away merrily.

The kids are all very close in age, we have Miss nearly 10, Miss 9 and a half, Miss 8 (mine), Miss 7, Mr 7 and Miss nearly 7 (mine). Proper little tribe.
