It’s been a bit of a cold wet winter, but spring is in the air and everyone seems to have a brighter look on their faces.

Ella has started school and having a blast! If you haven’t spoken to her recently you’ll be in for a bit of a shock. Both of the kids are obsessed with High School Musical. Tane is running - not walking - and has a mouthful of teeth. And I’ve been spending a bit too much time out of the country - although I seemed to have timed it well (during the worst storm in 50 years!).

Anyway - sorry for our laziness in keeping this up to speed, but you will now be rewarded with loads of new pictures of my darling children and my beautiful wife - click here for all the new pictures!

Lastly - we have finally confirmed our plans for our trip home to the U.S. It will have been 2 years by the time we arrive home, so it will be a bit of a tour!

New Zealand….Tahiti….. Los Angeles…. Atlanta…. Charlotte…. Richmond…. Williamsburg…. Kingsport…. Atlanta…. Tampa…. Charleston…. Raleigh…. Charlotte…. Atlanta…. Los Angeles…. Tahiti…. New Zealand!

How’s that for a relaxing trip?

Anyway - we arrive in Richmond on Thanksgiving day, and fly back out of Los Angeles on New Years. Should be a good trip - and can’t wait too see everyone! Keep in touch - and see you soon!
