… and my 30th Birthday with a look back over the last decade.  It seems I haven’t changed much, hopefully I’m a bit wiser though.

I went surfing with the girls, we worked out that we hadn’t been to the coast together in something ridiculous like, four years.

My Dad finishing Chemo, whoooohooooooo!!!!!!!!!  We found out in April that my Dad had bowel cancer.  Within six weeks he had an operation to remove the tumour and then swiftly started chemo.  I’m very pleased to say he has just completed his eighth and last round and is still beating us all at golf.

New Years…. now just gotta work out some New Years Resolutions.  Not that I ever stick to them.  However, I’m going to start swimming as theres a brand new pool right near me so thats one thing.  I think its time to get Ethan on a wakeboard..  I’m heading to Florida in February which I’m super excited about!  There are more wake and surf trips in the pipeline as well, just finalising some destinations.  More coaching, more fitness, more shoots, just more of everything!  

2014 you have been one crazy year and I have a feeling 2015 will be even more so. 

Happy New Year everyone xx
