Well, time has got away again. So here is a speed catch up of the past few weeks.
The stunning digitalis and Calendula in our garden down in Cygnet...so beautiful.
My big boy enjoying his afternoon 'wine glass' orange juice
Tom and I have been hard at it mowing and whipper snippering the rose garden area.. Tom stops by to give me a posy of dandelions!!
Some of the roses...really taking off now.
It is such hot work...that I have a lovely swim in the dam to cool off...
Just love the reflections on the big dam..
And in our kitchen window...
Hannah is in Sydney to babysit the Crandon boys while Jess and Aaron go to a wedding...so I get some lovely photos..
Don't these two scrub up well..
Jess sends some absolutely gorgeous photos of her big boys...growing up sooo fast
We do a Chamomilla process... John is able to find a local source thanks to some wonderful networking by our neighbour Sue.
We do our annual early morning Christmas Tree harvest...in readiness for our Sydney visitors..
The tree is so beautiful , Tom and I do not use many decorations this year..
The advent window is up in the shop..
I enjoy a lovely row in the St Ayles skiff on Wednesday evening..
Thursday I host the final Knitwits for the year..a good attendance
Friday evening and the Hannah arrives with the Goodes..
Just in time for me to bath Bailey..
Hannah delights in spending time with her nephew..
I snap this lovely shot of the boys to send to our Taiwan customer...who told us he likes to play this game with his family.
Saturday morning views ...
Good morning Mr B
Getting very clever..
I take a walk to photograph the hay bales and my roses...
Blue Moon...always reminds me of Ma...
The bales look lovely in the evening light.
We had such a lovely time chatting to Jess and Ben on Facetime a couple of times over the weekend.
Ben delights in holding onto the phone ('I hold it')...which make for some very interesting footage.. (makes me seasick!!) So special to have them share in the fun of the weekend...just love to hear Ben talking about this and that...
Sunday morning...with mum and dad
John Pa and Unca Tom
Goldie says hello..
Al fresco dining...
Paul and Tom in the kayaks
The boys play nerf commando games
After lunch (and some early Christmas gift giving) Tom is keen to try out his new 'tyre ' floats
Jark , Hannah and Tom hit the water..
Bailey togging up for the sunshine..
What a beautiful day...
Tom in his element.
Jark sneaking up behind Tom
This is the life
What an amazing day we had...such fun playing on the dam
Christmas elf...
Bailey gets the gift giving underway...what a cutie
Gorgeous couple these two...and what brilliant parents. Bailey is a lucky boy
The rest of the gang...
And the olds....
Even Goldie gets into the spirit..
Ah...such a sweet photo of a beautiful couple...
Monday morning goodbyes with Bailey..(mum and Dad have gone back to bed as this little munchkin kept them up most of the night!!)
A bit of Hairy McClairy from Unca Tom
A quick cuddle with Goldie
The a walk with Auntie Narns and Unca Tom
It was lovely to have the gang drop past the shop on the way to Hobart...I even got to give Bailey some of his bottle. Dear Lucy and Paul ducked over to the school to say goodbye to Tom (who had been very downcast that he had not been able to say goodbye this morning)
Coffee to get them on their way...
But OOPS...A sleep deprived Lucy made a mistake with departure time and they missed their flight..
Hannah to the rescue...and they went back into Hobart for Japanese lunch and hung about with a sleeping Bailey until time to go back to airport for rescheduled flight at 4.30ish.
What a marathon...and to cap it all off the flight was delayed due to thunderstorms in Sydney...the poor darlings.
Thanks for coming for such a wonderful "Christmas"
