More fun with the goats


Hi lovelies,

We are still in Tooma on the goat farm.

We have been having such a wonderful time and trying to be more help than hindrance.

Just sharing some of the photos from the last few days.

Amelia was teaching the Augustus to accept the halter.


Robbie trying to move Matilda out of the road so we could open the gates.



Opening the side of the crush to give the calf some room after milking Heffney.


Having a laugh at Poppet and Banjo who decided the chicken shed was a great place to escape the rain.


Amelia and I took a trip into Corryong for some supplies (and to play ladies and have some lunch).






We learned how to use the camp oven, and made a beautiful roast pork dinner.  Rosie decided it was a great place to warm up her old bones.





We were taken for a trip up to some of the back pastures where the view was fabulous.








 We saw a wombat.  




Robbie went for a ride on a motor bike


and built some shelters for when the kidding starts.


The end of another couple of lovely days.



All for now lovelies,

Stay safe and keep enjoying life.

Love us.

New South Wales Adventure - Tenterfield

Hi lovelies, A little earlier start this morning than yesterday.  We were up having a lovely breakfast by 8am.   It was a little sad this morning as we said goodbye to Steph and Leo.  We have had such a blessed time with them and we look forward to catching up with them again when we head to South Australia next year. As the weather was drizzly today we decided to head off to visit some of the nearby National Parks.  Our day consisted of dirt roads, mossy paths, lots of kangaroos and very few cars.  Gramps we are very sorry but the O Mobile is in great need of a bath.  If it rains tonight I will be sending Robbie out in his swimmers to give it a wash. Our first stop was to see Thunderbolts Hideout.  It is a short walk through some bush to see where this apparently "gentlemanly" bushranger hid. It was then back into the car and off to see the Tank Traps that were part of the Brisbane Line.  It is a fairly visually unimpressive plac...

Dylusions Dy-Cuts Art Journal

Hi Lovelies, This week's edition of Art Journal is very special, stunning and unique! We can't get enough of all the textures and colours going on in this page! We just love this.  This wonderful page features the Dylusions 'Dy-Cuts' which are quirky and colorful pre-cut shapes which make the perfect addition to any art journal page! You probably can already guess what paints we have used this week... The stunning, vibrant colours which are leaping of this page, are of course, Dylusions paints! When you take a closer look at you can see the texture and elements which have been layered to create this stunning page. A script stamp is perfect for layering and can fill in any gaps where you think something might be missing but not quite sure what! Helen has scattered some of the new Dina Wakley 'Collage Words' across the two pages. These are great as you can add a sentiment to your page whilst still allowing the colours from the background to ...
