GOT YOUR BACK FUNDRAISER 🏀

Judah has been selected for the Waikato BBall U16 Australian BBall Cup - Koru Tour 10-17 January 2027 in Albury Wodonga, Australia.

The fees required covers flights, travel in Australia, accommodation & food, team costs & tournament fees. The full cost comes in at $4000 😳😅

The ‘Got Your Back’ fundraiser is pretty simple…

👕 We have 30 spots available
💰 Each spot is $50
✍️ You will be sponsoring Judah to get on tour. Your name / business name will be printed on the back of a hoodie that Jude will wear while on tour - that’s pretty special.

You don’t have to pay the $50 all at once, you’re welcome to split it across multiple payments. If $50 is outside your budget, we completely understand. You can also make another donation and still have your name added to the hoodie. Just flick us a message.

Judah only started basketball last year. His first team environment was at the end of last year, representing Māori reps. Since then, we’ve loved watching his confidence, love for the game and skill on the court grow.

This year was his first year playing rep ball, and we were so proud when his first trials landed him in the second-highest rep team in Tauranga 🙌

Since then, he’s had the opportunity to be selected for 5 other teams outside of his rep team, which has been pretty cool to watch.

One of those opportunities is with Waikato Basketball, where he has been selected to play in the Australian Junior Bball Cup - Koru Tour ‘27! 🇦🇺🏀

Jude turns 13 this month, but he’ll be playing in the U16 div 😮‍💨🔥 and from what we’ve heard, it’s going to be a tough week of basketball!

It’s a huge opportunity for him and a big commitment for our family. Trainings are held in Hamilton, and the cost of travelling to Australia adds up quickly.

We’d absolutely love your help to get Jude on that plane ✈️🏀

If you’d like one of the 30 spots, or to donate another amount flick us a message. Thank you for helping us get our Jude on tour!

Can’t believe we now have a teenager in the house 🥹

13 today and it feels like only yesterday we were putting him to sleep as a new born in a drawer from Becs parents bedroom 😂 I know it’s dumb, he’s not on any social media channels so he won’t see this lol but we’re so proud of the young man he is becoming. So just a boast post coz we think he’s pretty special!

Happy Birthday to our lil Big Jude 🫶🏀🔥

5yr Tradition.

Finally got us all there. Trumpets. Bagpipes. My core memories made with my Grandad. Now core memories made for the kids. Same coat. Same location. Same bus ride out + in. Pause. Remember.

Breaking the social media hiatus 🥷 coz I’m so dang proud 🙌

Judahs first trial for city rep teams and got selected for the B team! They’ve been working hard for the last 6 weeks and although they weren’t expected to place anywhere near the top, playing mostly A grade teams from around the BOP region, they made it to the finals…just missing out on 3rd place coming in 4th!

Seeing J in his element, in his sweet spot and in his passion has been something really beautiful to watch. Seeing his confidence grow as he collected the evidence that he’s got it - has been so rewarding to see as his Dad. I used to think external things and platforms were my ministry…but standing courtside, driving between trainings and games, pep talks in the car and trainings together has reminded me that they will always be my first ministry and my greatest joy!

Tinged with the sadness of losing Becs Gran…🫶

Four days I won’t forget. Bring on the next season 🏀

*coach said ‘ball don’t lie’ 👀😂🙌

SEVENTEEN YEARS 💍

My favourite thing about our marriage is how much we laugh. Literally everyday (give or take) is filled with laughter and jokes and roasts that sometimes roasts a little too much but many many many fun. V v v much love laughing through life with you.

*pottery is actually a lot harder than it looks. No ghost scenes were recreated 😂

SEVENTEEN YEARS 💍

Ups and downs. Moments that tested, and situations that have shaped us. Finding joy in grief and hope in the unknown. Though imperfect and flawed I’m thankful you chose me, and me you. And I hope we do for a life time. Love you Mrs. Buchanan!

Also incase you didn’t know, you can’t eat the pod of the edamame bean. Just a fyi 👀😂

On the surface. It’s a little superficial. But sharing recent #sundayfits has been deeper than that.

From isolating myself for months and avoiding people while I wrestled with anxiety, fear and depression alone…sharing these ‘superficial snaps’ has also been about celebrating the fact that it didn’t win. It took a shot, but it didn’t take me out.

While the practical things I did - reaching out to others, sunlight, movement, journaling, eating better - have done wonders…I know, really…..It’s God. It’s always been God. It’ll always be God.

Starting to feel like myself again. And that’s worth a spot on the grid.
