Rippa Tournament

Lachie was very excited about his first rugby tournament. This is rippa, usually played by Lily's age, but this tournament was for years 3-8 playing rippa...must be kinda hard to go from tackle to non-contact! Lachie had a great day, beautiful weather, and even a few runs wuth the ball (photo by Lily). Topped off by a wasp sting not long after I left...he was well looked after and quite proud of how much it didn't bother him! (And yay for allergy testing, I could relax at Eden's swimming lesson knowing he would be fine)

Normally Lily would be in school on a Tuesday and normally the girls wouldn't dress like this to watch rugby in the mud (well, most of the time) but we had been to a show in Napier so stopped off to watch some rugby on the way to swimming; very cool show - and Lily's teacher didn't mind at all, her parents used to take her out of school to see shows when she was little too.
