success

Success comes in all shapes and forms.  This year McKenzie has expereinced a lot of sporting success.  This is truely a testament to all the time and effort she puts into her hockey which she plays with passion.

Don't be fooled that this comes easy and without some heart break along the way.  McKenzie has missed a couple of friends birthday parties over the winter because of her hockey committments.  I am so proud of her though and hope that she will continue to bring to her hockey the same passion and dedication that I have seen this year. 

She has been rewarded handsomely winning trophies both at the club and regional represative level, she was named captain and had to conquer her fear of speaking in front of crouds and finally has been selected as part of a talent squad for next year.

Long may her passion and dedication last.

The Photo Shoot.

Andre arrived home last week telling me that he has a homework challenge which involed taking photos of him and his bike.  To add to this he was very exciting which is not always the case with him.

anyway before I had had a chance to take a breath I was getting instructions on what shots need to be taken, the fact that I needed to take a couple of action shots and then the camera would need to be set on macro so he could take some close ups.

Finally the photos are taken and here they are

Taken by me (under guidance from Andre)

Then ofcourse his photos to reflect the working parts of the bike.  His area of learning at school.

Naturally these needed printing out and we were out of cartridge so off to the shops I went to sort this.

Of course this needed to be scrapped to here is the result.
