About Me

I'm a mum with 3 children - Chelsea, Morris and Ruby. I live on our family farm with my husband Stuart. I follow a number of blogs with wonderful pictures, witty stories and generally talented operators.... mine is none of the above! My blog is just a way for us to send updates to family and friends of our everyday life. Amanda xx

SHEARING

We always have shearing this time of year, here are a few pics, for those of you who know Stuarts dad Ron will know he always has his camera in his hand and takes lovely photos - well its was my turn to take some snaps of him for once!!

HANGING OUT AT FAIRFIELDS....

The kids had some friends come for the day and that afternoon ended up with a storm hitting us, this always causes much excitement all round and I was told that weather like this makes for great pictures.... So once again out came the camera!!

Believe it or not this picture wasn't a setup - oh and not sure what some of the outfits are about?




Kate & Ruby


Another group run!!  Once agin no instructions from the photographer - so cute!

THE BEACH..... WHY OH WHY CAN'T WE LIVE BY THE BEACH?

Well this sounds boring to some, but for my kids its the BEST day out ever!


Not so sure about this.....




There really wasn't any waves - funny - maybe I could have zipped off to the shops and left them like this!


















My friend Luci took Ruby for a swim and they both got dumped by a kinda large wave, Mum and I found it very funny to watch, Ruby stormed up the beach and sat like this for a fair while - Luci took this photo and this was the way Ruby looked at her for the rest of the afternoon!  Luckily she did eventually get over it and loves Luci again!
