the first dip

hello kezia here, have you worked out the title yet? because you’re sure to find soon

this isn’t the finally copy of this masterpiece it will be on tomorrow but Id like to tell you about my painting.

so if you look to the right of the picture you can see a swirl, here its called a Koru, i like drawing them because there easy and look pretty. now if you go to the top, left of the koru you can see a native bird, the kiwi of course, they are a bit tricky but when you’ve got them right they look stunning.

over to the left again, is a sunset ,i absolutely love the colours in it, the pinks oranges yellows and reds, they’re lovely.

the tree, yes the tree, its the great niku palm,they are my fave tree out of  tree world. at the bottom of the niku lyes falx again a native, and last but not least Rangitoto a volcano that we’ve climbed and the water is my fave thing to paint because of all its Greeny ,blue colours.

dave here now (kezia ran out of time as has to get changed for flippa ball!)

church this morning was pretty intellectual and i got confused.  afterwards we had esther’s korean friend Sunny, her brother, her dad and her mum round for morning tea.  that was fun, although a bit tricky as sunny’s mum doesn’t speak much english.  i think she probably can speak quite well, but was just a bit shy.  she tried speaking to me in korean at one point, which was a little surprising!  apparently she was saying she had lots to talk about but her english wasn’t very good!

after they left jane and i had a nana nap (good name) and then lunch.  after that the girls tried out the very cold pool (see videos below)

this afternoon i went to the church prayer meeting and this evening kezia’s flippa ball STARTS at 8pm!

do you want to watch a video of us in the pool?
