What a day we had making a very magical memory at the Santa Parade this year, with the help of Rangiora Promotions and Rangiora Toyota all 3 kids got to ride on the float with Santa!! 💫🤶🏼💫
It was such a cool experience for young and old and so happy, we definitely cherish days like these 🩷
Im not able to post a photo as there are other kiddies in them but Frankie did her first sports day at school 🏃🏼♀️which she absolutely loved, hearing the children and parents cheering her on was really quiet emotional and ever so kind.
She's been to a couple of A&P shows where she's obviously enjoyed all the rides and seeing the animals 🐄🐑🐓🐥
And a few people have mentioned "why don't you put horse riding on your list", well we say she's already a pro!! As we are so lucky to have been attending RDA both in Blenheim and Rangiora on a weekly basis since she was little ,🐴
Frankie also got given her amazing "Make a Wish" a couple of weeks ago, which is THE BEST playhouse. The kids are playing in it making awesome memories day & night, ever so grateful to everyone involved 🥰
We are doing a really super special memory day tomorrow which we'll leave as a surprise for now but will definitely share early next week 🤩
Our first family photo shoot has been a success 👌🏼
We got some beautiful photos and we are so grateful.
Another amazing memory that we'll all treasure 🥰
Frankie had her first ever birthday party at the weekend - (due to covid and sickness it hasn't been possible before) And what an awesome few hours it was 🥳🥳 She was up and down the inflatable course and slide, eating everything on offer, colouring pictures, had a beautiful rainbow face painted, grabbed heaps of lollies in the scramble and of course enjoyed cake!
She had an absolute blast with all her friends, big and small!! Who managed to come and celebrate. We are truly blessed and thankful for helping us make this happen ❤️

We have been so so lucky with the generosity of you amazing people and also Child Cancer that we have made another holiday full of absolutely amazing memories for all of us to cherish. We're part way through a week down in beautiful Queenstown and will post a proper update of everything we managed to do later but for today we'd love to share our dare devil kiddies all enjoying the luge, all wanting more (even after 11 rides between them!) and all speed demons. They we're all so awesome and we are so so grateful for this amazing experience together, once again a massive thanks 💖
Movie World was such a magical place for all of us, meeting such kind characters ❤️
Even The Joker was captivated by our darling girl 😍

A huge thank you, we've made it on our first overseas trip as a family of 5 ❤️
The Gold Coast in Oz is giving us plenty to do with a few things from Frankie's memories list getting ticked off here. The first has been 'Ride a rollercoaster' and Frankie and her siblings absolutely loved it. Frankie is known for her beautiful big smiles and this picture captured it perfectly 😍
We had an awesome memory making day tobaggoning up at Porters Lodge. Frankie and family had THE BEST day in the beautiful sunshine - huge smiles all round ☺️ thank you all so much 💖
As a family we just wanted to say how grateful and slightly over whelmed we are by the kindness and generosity of everyone who has donated, shared our page and the beautiful messages of love are something we are reading over and over again. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, love Jen & Paul ❤️
