On Saturday we packed up a lunch and headed out to the Wairarapa to see the horses and the ploughing. A trip over the Rimutakas, which are pretty wiggly winding and high hills. Unfortunately it rained most of the time we were there. There was some pretty controversial judging. Peter and Jase came second. But apparently the man they put first didnt do his opening split right and didnt finish. He also only ploughed about half of the depth they were asked to. But he did have it nice and neat!Peter and Jase were a bit annoyed given that it was the Silver Plough competition which is the countries best all competing.
Anyway on the second day it was looked over by some other judges and they deemed it void so they competed on the Sunday from scratch with no accumulated points. And they Won!! Yay a first.
On Sunday Morning we took the kids to a place called Junglerama. A lovely wee playplace in Wellington. The kids had a ball. They were so hot and exhausted when they finished that most of them were asleep in the car when we got back to Ginas for lunch!
This is a picture of Jessa getting a wee bit upset becuase she was trying to get to the top of the play structure to a little red car at the top and she kept turning the wrong way and ending up at the bottom of the slide! This was her third attempt. Laura took her up and showed her how to get to it so she was happy again.
