Smiles all Around



I just couldn't resist this one. 
It sums up the spirit of New Zealand to me.
My friends will attest to the fact that I am a big Richie McCaw fan.
He is Captain of the All Blacks rugby team. I love watching this game....especially when he plays.
Sorry Mr. H :)

I couldn't resist the looks on the faces of these children.
I would have been on the sidelines beaming too!

(Mr. H thinks it is time for me to come home!)

    I'll be glued to the screen on Saturday night watching them play our boys!! I suspect you'll be happier with the result than me Jeanne!

    I have to show this to my boys - rugby is our game here and McCaw is definitely a housefold name chez nous.

    We saw this on the news. Those kids were so surprised, what a fantastic moment for them.

    This is the first time I've ever considered going over to the 'dark side' Jeanne from Aussie Rules. Mr. McCaw is well, to put it delicately, A HUNK!!!
