Who needs pillows....

Who needs pillows when you have a well padded mommy to lie against hehehe.


The Bokke

As many of you might know, André and I to a lesser degree are involved in a rugby blog called RuggaWorld. These two articles really sent chills up my spine

http://www.ruggaworld.com/2007/10/18/live-the-dream/
I credit the authors for their awesome emotive writing.
These both explain all we feel as our boys face the 2007 World Cup final tomorrow night.
Here's to you doing it Bokke, for yourselves, for your country, and for every South African with a dream of greatness !

A Real Bok Supporter ...is this you ??
Thanks for the video Brenda, good laugh !

Bahrain 10"s

André is once again at the Bahrain 10's this weekend. The girls and I joined him there yesterday for a bit of swimming before the tournament kicked off.

But ....after getting home close to midnight last night we decided to send him on his merry way today. He left earlyish and will be back early evening.
We're just relaxing at home, mom trying to catch up with news on the blog and then of course it'll be getting ready for school tomorrow.
And here we have the Khobar Quins, winners of the plate final in The 2007 Bahrain Duty Free 10's Tournament.

Sadly no photos of my darling reffing as well last night was too dark and I wasn't there today, next time.

Eid Mubarak

A nice 9 day holiday to spend time together, Eid Mubarak everyone.
Eid started Thursday 11 October and we spent many a day at the movies (now that we could enjoy popcorn while watching hehehe) so this post will be a bit of a movie review posting.
After each movie we would rate the movie one to five stars and then average the scores out....
Underdog -

Ratatouille -

Nancy Drew -

And then well there were the movies at home (many of which we had seen at the movies previously), some some of the ones watched :
High School Musical 2

Surf's Up -

How to Eat Fried Worms -

Other than the movies, well the adults did have some work to do and whenever possible, the girls enjoyed the trampoline, and then there was always rugby to fall back on heheheh
