'Who's kicking off?!" said Kaia anxious to get into the game.
"They are," said Richard. There goes the whistle "My ball," I said when my team was waiting for me to take it into the mall.
"Blow over him," said Dad from on the sideline with the reserves.

My first all blacks game.

15/5/2012                                            My first All Blacks game.

10 days before my birthday, Aunty Bridget rang and told me she had bought some tickets to see the All Blacks vs South Africa game down at the cake tin. And she said that her, Aunty Fiona, Tyler and I were going. I asked when it was and she said it was somewhere in August.

'You can do it'. Mum and Dad said outside of the concrete fence.

'All you need to do is tuck into the bars and lean back as hard as you can, Oh and don't let go of the of the scooter like last time. 
'Now here I go' (4 attempts later) 'Ok 1 more try,' I had said to Mum while I was waiting for my mate to get out of the pit. 'Now here I go'. But just as I hit the sturdily built ramp it felt like I hit a shock wave saying that I shouldn't hold back on what I've always wanted to do. 'I'm already half way round and one more sequence and ... the breeze calmly led me into the foam, 
'Yes I landed it.' 'But I can't hear anyone ... oh that's why. I'm hidden under a ton of foam.' 
'Ahhh that's better now. I can see everyone.' But while I get out I hear a voice saying that I am proud.
