My name is Hannah



Hi
My name is Hannah Stirling and I have been going to rock solid for the past year when it first started i thought it was a good way to make new friends and have a good time. For me going to rock solid was a way to get me out and about instead of sitting watching tv.
And when i went more often made me change my mind on that i should go to church. So as weeks went by and i kept going to rock solid this changed my mind ,to a diffreway to looking at god
Now i go to Rock Solid and its so much fun making new friends as they come each week. I have so much fun at Rock Solid with Jae, Nigel, Alison and Scottie if they didn't come every week. I wouldn't be going out on a Thursday night with my friends to rock solid and playing cool games and learning more life skills as life goes on.
 Also I learnt about heaps of cool miracles God has done so I thought that's pretty cool what Jesus has done for us like die on the cross to take away our sins  so i think that rock solid is an awesome thing to go to.

Flooding around Whangarei 19 March 2012


We went for an adventure to go see what Flooding we found around Whangarei.
First on our way to Wairua Falls we had to cross a portion of Road that had been flooded. From that point on the kids were hooked.


Then we arrived at the water falls and were amazed at the volume of water going over the falls.



On our way back we decided to go visit Oma and Opa out Hikurangi. Just North of Whangarei in Kauri they were stopping North bound Traffic and Diverting north bound traffic some where out Kauri Road. We continued North the road felt so strange with no vehicles around. We came across Jordan Valley Road which the police had closed looked spectacular with towo police cars blocking the road off and lights flashing and all. 
We got to Whananaki road alright (I was also thinking should I go to where the road was closed) continued to Oma and Opas to find the Cutforth farm totally flooded. I call it Cutforth lake. After a quick visit on our way home decided to go to Whakapara where St hway one was closed. Renates brother managers a farm up on puhipuhi and was unawawre he was totally stuck no roads in and out. I also discovered that the Wairua River crosses st hway one at Whakapara the same river we looked at the water fall further South West by Maungatapere.


Anya and Jesse loved there little adventure.


Heres how much rain has fallen at our place in Kamo.
Sunday evening 30mm
Monday 189.1mm
a Storm total of 219mm  for 2 days rain.


Places like Kaeo and Kerkeri had very major flooding and were cut off and some places lost power due to rain and heavy winds.

Jesse Lego Adventure - What Jesse's Lego gets up to while he's at School

While Jesse is at school his LEGO gets out and plays. It's been suspected for years ....now we have caught them on camera.


Jesse loves this video so much that he also asked us to go outside so his lego man could play again. We could simply just look in through the window. And watch what he gets up to.


Lego keeps him amused for hours now this has taken it to a new level. Will Daddy spill the beans and let him know hows it done. 


What do you reckon we should do? Tell him or not tell him?

On ya Bike

Jesse and Anya ditch there ride with Dad in the van for this bike
As Jesse came out of the supermarket on Sunday he spotted this cool motor bike. He couldn't keep quite saying it very loud that it was the coolest bike he had ever seen. The owner overheard him and asked if he would like to hop on. At first Jesse was a little unsure whether he should so he took his sister as back up.
Brumm, Brumm.....
