The most Awesome Day EVER!

Miss Lilly off to school.  The report back was that it was the most awesome day ever and that she is so excited about going again....

The Chook Whisperer

Miss Lilly loves her chickens. She will spend hours in the garden talking to them and picking htem up and cuddling them. Thankfully they are very quiet and simply crouch when she comes near them and just put up with her stoking and patting them.

Its delightful.

Lillys New Years Resolution

We sat as a family today to discuss our goals for the new year.

We started by talking about the highlights of the past year, the things we enjoyed doing or seeing. We moved onto what we'd like to continue to do or have.

Miss Lilly announced that she would like to "continue having birthdays."

I'll drink to that...

Thank you Uncle Fruz

Uncle Frazer and Aunty Tania are a very long way away. ....Even further away than Aunty Julie and the Champions who live at Longreach and it took us all day and night to drive to their place!

So becuase they can't come to see us for Christmas, Uncle Fruz sent me some money so I can buy something for myself.

Here it is .... a fairy finger puppet theatre and a game called Hullabaloo. Its a noisy dancing follow the leader sort of thing and sort of like twister - which makes us think about shapes and colours and keeps us dancing. We wish you were here to play it with us.. its so much fun. We usually end up on the floor laughing. Even Daddy plays it with us.

I am sure Mummy will shoot a scene of me doing my puppets and us doinog this game and post it up here.. just for you.

thank you Uncle Fruz and Aunty Tan.

Lilly Meets Ben10

Beetles

We were at a night time concert where one of the doors had been left open. Its that time of year and an army of Xmas beetles gatecrashed. Lilly was fascinated by the loud buzzing and the gorgeous colours and picked one up. She proceeded to show everyone around her and began stroking the beetle, calling it "beauty."

A family friend pretended to be frightened and put thier arms up in mock horror when shown the beetle. As quick as a flash, Lilly dropped the beetle and stomped it into oblivion; soothing the friend with "Don't worry, its dead now."

I am still laughing...
