Evie's birthday

Here we go.... Long over due.

The little one turns three. 

 

 

Summer holidays in Wintery Oz

On a walk

Just magic. 

Cousins to love and cherish

Even the trees dress for the cold!

Gardens can still be worked in the winter

Bush kids, waiting on the campfire to cook breakfast

Sweet, patient big cousins

Cattle yards

Best friends, endless playdates. 

I just love this photo of Tilly, free as a bird.

Learning tricks

Such great fun times and such a blessing to have such a beautiful family and wonderful home to come back to. Thank you to mum and dad for forever opening the doors to us and to my dear brothers and families who always prioritise time together. 

Tilly turns six

My dear girl is finally six. It seems like a forever wait. All her best friends are six at the beginning of the year. But........ now we are six! She shared her day with her beloved Nan and Pop, a handful of her bestest friends and a beautifully decorated house!

     

  

Everyone pitched in to help me before friends arrived. There was a bead craft, pass the parcel, hide the hankie and duck duck goose. Plus the balloons provided an endless entertainment all of their own. Tilly chose her own cake and decorated it. It was a nice party and she enjoyed it. Couldn't ask for too much more. 

 

   

 

 

 

 

 

  

To celebrate the occasion, Tilly memorised 'Now We Are Six' by A.A. Milne. We forgot to recite it to the children however!! Too much fun was being had. One of her presents from mummy and daddy was the book by the same name. She just loves poetry and can sit and listen to me read for hours. 

When I was one, I had just begun.

When I was two, I was nearly new.

When I was three, I was hardly me.

When I was four, I was not much more. 

When I was five, I was just alive.

But now I am six, I'm as clever as clever.
So I think I'll stay six now, forever and ever. 

Happy year of being six Tilly our darling girl.
