Frost...

Love waking up to it and knowing there's a warm fire I'm coming home to...

Here's what I saw on my way into the house after finishing a Sleepover shift :)

Happy Birthday, Russell...

Yesterday, Russell celebrated his 51st Birthday... Was truly a wonderful day. Ended with a roast and homemade baked cheesecake. First attempt ever. Russell usually makes the cheesecakes. This year he asked for one for himself. Turned out really good.

Was wonderful to celebrate his day as a family...

Blessings,


Principal Awards...

We got notification of it with Josh's report card. No one had any idea what level he ended up. Not even Josh. 

We got there yesterday and we were all there supporting him and honouring him in his Level 2 achievement! Was so great to celebrate Josh as a family.

Blessings, 


Waiting in line to get his award :)


Just a bit proud...

Our new boy...

We sadly lost Bruce our rooster about three weeks ago. Didn't even want to acknowledge it as its been a sad time. At least he passed being with his ladies in the Chookhouse, very warm and comfy...

Well, yesterday Tim came home with a new rooster. He's six months old and at the moment he's in a pen just so he gets used to being relocated... He's very beautiful... He has feathers down his feet just like Bruce had... Oh, I do miss that boy...

His comb is a Rose comb. Haven't had a chook with such a comb before though have seen them plenty of times...

Due to his colouring looking a little mottled like a rock his name is Rocky!

He's come from a lovely home in our village and though he's on the bigger side he's is a gentleman...

Can't wait to introduce him to the ladies properly!!!

Blessings,
