From the Garden

Before we left on our holiday I managed to pick quite a few bags of plums from our 2 trees in the back paddock, lucky I did as by the time we returned home the birds had left the trees absolutely bare.. Anyway here is a pic of my homemade plum jam with their lids prettied up ..

My holidays

Well the buzz of Christmas is finally over and life is returning to normal. I had a great break with my family camping and fishing, even though the heat was searing. The river was 33 degrees on one day so you can imagine how hot it was on land. We caught and released lots of nice size cod and swam most of the day...Lovely.. Thought I'd add this pretty pic of the river..

My Shabby Pink Christmas Pressie

Silver bells, chandelier drops, pink ribbons,so pretty

Gorgeous !!!

Oh and did I mention a sleigh full of choccies, yumm!

Well, what can I say..Im sooo lucky..



My lovely mother-in-law came over last night with this beautiful Christmas surprise she made especially for me, I absolutely love love love it! What an amazing job she has done.

My very own pink Reindeer dripping with bling and pink ribbons, what a divine Chrissy present. Hes been airbrushed with the prettiest pink, and decorated fabulously. I'm totally thrilled with him...!!

I don't think I will be able to pack him away once Christmas is finished, he is just much too pretty to live in a cardboard box..

I would also like to add, if there is anyone interested in owning one of these gorgeous Reindeer and sleigh masterpieces orders for next year are welcome.. He has been beautifully airbrushed and can be done in an assortment of colors....

Underwater world

Heres a few pics taken at underwater world too. Also a good place to visit, especially if you like sharks.

Australia Zoo pictures..

Our quick trip to Australia Zoo was fab! I thought Id share a few pics. What an amazing place, I was so impressed. I always loved Steve Irwin and admired his passion for animals, it is truly expressed at his zoo. The whole place was immaculate, the animals all looked content and very healthy. The gardens were gorgeous. What a wonderful place to take the kids..

Christmas time already.

Well the shopping centres are sure feeling a lot like Christmas, people everywhere ! Im not sure why I chose this moment to start blogging but I did, I may not add a new post until february when the chaos of Christmas and holidays are well and truly over. My intentions were good though.
Well if Im not back until after Christmas, I hope everyone has a great break and a lovely day. I will do my very best not to over indulge but I know I will anyway..
Merry Christmas Everyone!
