Face painting

Drama Class~~ end of year certificates..

and facepainting at the school fete...

I am VERY proud to report that Jack has had a successful and encouraging beginning to his formal schooling..
Not only has he received excellent school reports, and accumulated many good behaviour awards and priviledges , he also really enjoyed the Annual school production and sports days.
As a first time school mum, I have been so thrilled to be involved every week with his class's literacy program - with great pleasure to watch Jack absorb so much in so little time !

James the train engine..

Contrary to popular belief.. James isnt on the Isle of Sodor.. He's HERE !!! We saw him !!

Dora D.

Miss Dora D. Brown has never heard of the invention of the DOG bed ??!!
It's soft fluffy doonas on human beds ONLY for her ...

Birthday no. 4

Amelia and Charlotte had a HUGE day for their 4th birthdays..
We went down to visit Gran at lunchtime for a little party and then came home for MORE cake ! Charlotte had been feeling unwell for her birthday, but she soldiered on. Anything for cake !!!

Winter Jumpers

Amelia and Charlotte chose their own wool for their jumpers this past winter.. Beautiful hand spun, hand dyed Australian Mohair.. Very soft and very warm.

Piarki Phalenes

In May Barbra had her first litter. Her boyfriend. a charming lad named Reggie..
The result.. Lola, Thomas and Timothy. 3 Gorgeous, happy and entertaining kids.

Standby

Hi All- please wait patiently as we load photos to the blog.
In May my camera broke no updates have occurred since..

Due to MUCH pressure from friends all over the world... I am going to download photos from my mobile to fill in some of the gaps of 2009.

They are not the best quality snaps, but they are fun.
ENJOY

Our area has been so very dry for many months and the inevitable bushfires happened only kms from our house. This I took on my mobile phone - used by the local paper for their article.
