Micah's Mates

With summer in full swing, the boredom has already begun to creep in. Micah was recently invited to spend the day with his mates, Jack and Max. They went to a movie and enjoyed Danish donuts prepared by Max's mom. We wanted to reciprocate, so we invited Jack, Max and Max's brother Toby over for the day. They enjoyed numerous rounds of Wii games, taking turns with wheels and remotes. Then they wanted to walk down to the river for a swim. It's been very muggy here the last few days. Even though the water was cold, they enjoyed themselves. With Christmas just a few days off, soon, nearly everyone we know, will be on holiday (Kiwi's typically go on holiday in January). We thought we'd better take advantage of the boy's availability while they were still here. Notice the three Kiwis are barefoot in the picture. That is a very Kiwi thing. It's not at all uncommon to find people barefoot in the market or restaurant (we're not in Kansas anymore). The boys walked barefoot all the way to the river.
