well ... from when i stopped blogging.
27th aug ... sbl grand final (wolves v hawks)
as guests from bwa we were lucky to attend the sbl grand final between the wolves (our team and lewis as a player) and the hawks (our old team and joe-alan as a player). it was a great game and against all odds the wolves won!
due to aeronny not being able to go darrio and i were able to attend the final performance of wicked in australia! thanks aeronny!!
we had been undefeated ALL season ... and losing was NOT an option. we were versing perry lakes hawks which 1) were undefeated except for the two losses we handed them 2) they were theron and dad's old team from last season and they hadnt changed at all.
not only that theron was still in a moon boot and it was NOT an option for him not to play ... boot or no boot. thankfully the doctor gave him the clean bill of health except NO training or playing for 6 more weeks ... yeah that lasted 2 days. well even less than that, theron was told wednesday afternoon he didnt need the boot and exactly 12 hours later he was at training and that sunday he was suited up for the grand final.
after a VERY stressful game ... WE WON!!! the boys won by 1 and it was dad who worked his magic from above. as soon as the final siren went the boys scream and ran into the huddle, tears flowing freely. mum was in tears and i was losing myself, screaming, hollering, cheering, crying and then mum and i both looked up. walking across the court with his hair sticking up straight, the biggest smile on his face and tears in his eyes was lewis. he came straight to me and gave me the biggest hug and then cried into mum's shoulder. he had done it. he had coached an undefeated season and brought home the championship for daddy.
l to r: lewis, theron, luke
october ... the one direction obsession begins

l to r: zayn, harry, louis, niall, liam
one direction is a band from the uk which was formed on the x factor by simon cowell ... which is laman's term means ... they will be a worldwide sensation. little did we know that in october when darrio first discovered them on youtube and there started. now ill admit it ... im partial to the old boybands - westlife, nsync, backstreet boys, human nature, boyzone, take that ... and these boys are pretty good. simon cowell is a genius.
december ... the 1st christmas without daddy
we spent christmas eve with the dowes and celebrating terry's birthday and it was an awesome night with theron and darrio both enjoying themselves with noah and oscar and even taui popping in and having dinner with us.
for christmas day we spent the day with our family ... the dales and tonys extended family. tony did not want us to be alone on christmas and because we are apart of his family ... we were welcomed with open arms. the day was amazing ... taui came and actually spent the day with us, darrio had fun in the pool, theron and joe acted more like brothers with every passing second and the day ended with taui and darrio providing the music to a christmas and one direction sing along :)
our christmas tree ... with the black bird (for dad) and the white bird (for mum)
our gifts from the dales ... the only one that was fooled was theron ... somehow that didnt surprise us!
