Computer back on

Well, our computer is finally working properly. Couple of things. We took a cruise down to Gold Coast one night and there was a car in front of us at a T-section. They pulled out and another car came across and hit the car badly. It rolled over a couple times and was on its side. Jared and I were the first on the scene. Two drunk girls were in there. One girl slid right out because the windshield was smashed off. The other girl was stuck. She was unconscious and was bleeding. Her arm was twisted back and the smell of alcohol was on her breath. The lady in the other car was just fine. But I think that other girl survived, maybe not. Also, we went to another waterfall. It was deep somewhere up at Mt Tambourine. We also went to the view, which was this space on top of a hill overlooking all this farm land.

Boating

Last week on Saturday it was a real hot day so we decided to go out boating. Damien and I played morning ball at Karawatha Stake, and then bought some food and went out towards Ormeau. We spent the whole day tubing, knee boarding, and wake boarding. It was nice to be able to get out of the house and enjoy some water and sun. The water was disgusting though, and fish were jumpin in and out. We all had a blast and came home tired and sun burned. I'm real black now, and am going to stay out of the sun for the next couple of months. It's been raining quite heavily lately so that's been real nice. When summer fully hits, I think I'll be singing a different tune.

ZOO!!!!!!!!!

Last friday we decided that it would be a good idea to see some kangaroos and koalas since we have not seen any at all. It was a hot day and we went to some little crappy zoo and saw 30 kangaroos just hanging out minding their own business. They reminded me a lot like Tahi. Just sitting underneath the shade and just sitting there. But it was funny to be able to pet them and just hang out with them. There were heaps of animals just waltzing around the whole place. Lizards on the foot paths and turkeys just flying around and annoying everyone. It was too hot to wear normal clothe so I wore stubbies and a wife beater. For some reason I can't upload pictures on here so I will do that as soon as I can.

There was a rock slide leading into this little pool.

About to jump off

Today I woke up at 6am to drive down to the Karawatha Stake chapel to ball some ball with Phil, and Priscilla's brother, Liam. There's a group of about 10-15 people that go there every Saturday morning, so it's nice to do something early. At 7:30 we left to go down to Sunnybank Hills rugby field because Karawatha ward was playing flag touch against another ward in a 3-game series. It was two 30 minute halves, and Jewel and Spain and their kids were there. Andrew Katene was there as well with all the elders playing. It was nice to get know another ward, and it was funny to meet some cousins from back home. I forgot their names, but they said for me to tell mum and dad they said Hi. So, Hi Mum and Dad from family members that I don't remember. We got beat pretty bad by their ward. It was all fun and games the first half, but during the halftime break both teams went under their own shade and started devising a plan to smash the other team. By 9 o'clock the sun was draining the energy out of everyone. I can't believe how hot it gets and it's still only spring. It should be illegal for it to be that hot so soon. And the weather people have been saying its the coldest spring in 20 some odd years. But after we played touch I went back to the house and Jared, Damien, and I decided today would be the perfect day to go to the waterfall. There were dozens of people everywhere, and it was really nice to dip in some cool water. There were so scary as drops, but we overcame the fear.

Taking a picture with some random guy

Hey everyone, well in light of moving to Damiens house, I haven't been able to get on this thing as much. I still have plenty of pictures and news for everyone. Moved in there a couple weeks ago, a 4 bedroom house with one bathroom, and a computer room. Plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. We all went to Spasifik Cuts and got our heads shaven. But they kept the back of mine. Hoping to grow it out longer and blonde it, haha. There isn't any artwork on the walls so we decided to go get one of those old western family portraits. Except we opted to dress like gangsters. We got the pictures done at Surfers Paradise down in the Gold Coast, and I had a one dollar american bill left over. So we decided to do Poo Dollar with it. Jared went into the bathroom and did his thing on the dollar note. We found an escalator to this Game Zone place where all the arcades were. We put the dollar bill at the top of the escalator and I sat next to this plant and filmed it on my camera. This lady and her family were coming up and her eyes lit up once she saw an american note. She picked it up and turned around to show her family the other side of the note. Their eyes just lit up and told her to throw it away and she looked on the other side to see crap on it. We thought it was the funniest thing until we came back half an hour later to see the note was taken. Then yesterday Jared and I thought it would be a good idea to climb onto the roof and start hitting golf balls. One of the kids that Damien takes care of climbed up there with us and we start smacking balls into the neighbors back yard. Chris hit the ball and it flung through the trees and hit a bird. We thought it was the funniest thing ever and almost fell off the roof.

Wet N Wild-Cadens Day Out

One of the Wet n Wild rides

On Friday we bought some annual passes to Wet n Wild so we wouldn't have to wait in line to get them on the busy Saturday. After hearing the great news that Dayna went into labor, we decided to go to Wet n Wild, seeing as it was hot as the days. It was quite a fuss to get Caden all ready to go, but once he was ready we left to hit the pools. We caught up with the Erueti's and started exploring the place. It was nice to be able to get outside with the family and enjoy some sun and water. We left the park as the sun was going down and the weather got really bad. It started raining like crazy, and then lightning was striking pretty close to Parkinson. But all is well.

Surfers Pardise

On Friday me and Phil went to work at 8 o'clock. By the time we get down to Gold Coast our boss calls us to say there is no work for us to do so we had the day off. Jared and I decided to go down to Gold Coast for the day and just check out the city life. We went to Runcorn Station and found out we didn't know where we were going. So we found a map and planned our trip down there. Come to find out that the machine doesn't give back change and all we had were 50 dollar notes. So we run across the street to some random Chinese Medicine shop, and as soon as we enter we smell atleast 50 illegal substances. We ask the guy to break down our change and he pulls out his wallet and gives us the money. We left that store feeling a little "happier" than when we entered. We jumped on the train from Runcorn to Beenleigh. Switched over to catch the train down to Robina. There was this weird guy on the train who had a Irish accent and said he was from California. He asked us what station to get off at so he could catch the train to Surfers and go pick up chicks. We told him we didn't know, and he jumps off at this random station out in the middle of nowhere. We tell him that it was the wrong station to get off at, and he just said, "oh, it's all right." and just stayed at that station only to find out there were no buses coming, but to wait for the train to come back and get him. After two hours on trains, we caught a bus to Surfers. We spent the day looking at the houses on the rivers, and had a great time. Caught the last bus to Robina, and then caught the last train to Runcorn. Some drunk Tongan and his boys came up to Jared and I on the train, and we started talking to him. He was an inactive fella who left church when the ward split. So we talked to him and gave him the missionary talks, and hopefully he'll go back to church. Dayna told me I had to keep this thing updated because I keep forgetting I have one. Sorry!!!

Southbank Trip

Since it was Aunty Elaine's birthday, Seanee and I decided to take the little kids out of her hair and take them to Southbank. We took the bus all the way down there and swam in the man made pools. Had some fish n chips and watched some of the birds eat other people's food while they weren't watching. Came back home on the bus and Phil and Priscilla were at Aunty's folding some clothes while Aunty cooked us dinner. Aunty took Corbin to some restaurant down the street so she had her fun with her friends. She came back home, and everyone was all crashed out. Me and Seanee
