In need of a weekend after the weekend

Brod competed in his first MTB race on Saturday. We woke up super early to get him to the starting line at Inanda Dam - so my tiny little eyes in the one shot are totally understandable.  I left before he started...and arrived at the pick up point once he'd already finished. Drat. So much proudness in me now:) He's a marvel. Considering after the race he had to get to a church meeting and then collect the heaviest piece of furniture ever constructed, dismantle it and get it down a narrow flight of stairs and strap it on the car and then drive it home at 60km an hour. Insane. 

Noah is growing his hair - it's pretty big most days - kinda looks like a wig now - but he saw some guy with long hair and that was it. He reckons it looked so cool he has to try.

Whoever said large horizontal stripes are flattering - lied.

This is Phoebe - totally.
