About Me

My photo
Victoria, Australia
Mother to two and "muddy" to three. Enjoy "blogging" find it a bit of fun. 'My World' is made up of family and friends .. people I love. Places that I visit .. be it near or far, and things that I love .. be it a piece of clothing, a bunch of flowers, a drawing by one of the kids, or a piece of art that may already belong to me, or something I may be lusting over. I live on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula with immediate family and friends close by, and wouldn't wish to be anywhere else!

Thinking of starting up again.
Anew beginning for 'me' and my 'poor little blog'.
Changes will need to be made.
Thing's will need to be spruced up !!

on a trip to 'the vintage shed' ....

fifteen minutes down the road ....

an aussie brocante ....

spotted ....

taken home ....

up, and on view ....

I was really rather chuffed to come across an old plaque from my childhood church.
At this church, we went to mass every Sunday.
It was where I used to go and make up stories when I went to confession.
Where I made my Holy Communion and my Confirmation.
So anyway .... now the plaque is up on the side fence, I can see it from the dining area, and it brings to my mind happy childhood memories.
A hundred and fifty dollars well spent .... Well I think so anyway !!!

crazy hair day and a not so happy zac


'Crazy Hair Day' at school, gold coin donation to raise money for children in Africa.
Zac was not at all happy with his mothers design/execution of his hair style.
It didn't last beyond morning play.
Poor kid !! It's a wonder he didn't end up in sick bay with a headache.

My milk-fed veal was superb.
Our waiter "knee deep" otherwise known as Wade, was excellent.

how cute is this ?

Is she not absolutely, the prettiest wee caravan around ?
If she was mine, I would hitch her up ...  head up north and never be seen again.
(this would happen in my dreams I'm supposing)
