One of these days I will be motivated to capture a photo that is not around the house. I took photos of the lavender, the mint that was in flower and some progression shots of the shed. I even found the orb spiders hiding spot. Alas, today’s image is just another of our everyday life. […]
Kayla the 12-year-old was most upset when she found out that she has not been featured on my 53 Tuesdays. Next week I told her. And thus next week has rolled around. So, while it’s still summer and because the kids can, they enjoy the time outside after dinner until it’s bedtime. Tonight was no […]
One of the after-school activities Kayla has chosen is dance. She’s done dance now for 6 years. She ditched ballet this year in favour of tap. She also does jazz & cheer. November, however, means recital month. It takes me just under an hour to do her hair and makeup. I still hate liquid eyeliner. Week […]
High Five Friday started off as a weekly cap. Then it got moved to fortnightly. Then monthly. Well, I apologise now that as I have failed epically on High Five Friday. My last HFF post was back in March. MARCH! Oh dear lordy, I’m so sorry I have been so slack. So let’s catch up […]
Kayla has been looking forward to Sovereign Hill camp, since the start of the year. Well, the day had arrived and she would be off to Sovereign Hill for a day in the life of the ‘gold rush’ / ‘olden days’. The kids were divided into two schools. The elite & The ragged school. Kayla […]

If I was smart, I would have shown you another photo for Project 52 of either Red Cave or Hollow Cave. Alas, I forgot to pack the camera. It wasn’t until we had parked the car at Buandik carpark that I realised the mistake. Oh well. These things happen. The thing with a photography project […]
While in Melbourne, I try to visit my “home” Point Cook Parkrun when I can. I haven’t been to many, but this weeks visit to Parkrun was extra special, because I ran it with Kayla. I asked Kayla if she would like to do Parkrun, and aim to run 5km. I know she can clearly […]
It’s FriYay! Virtual High Five! To be honest I feel like all I have been doing is working, and not much else. Lets to straight to it then. Five Pictures While cleaning up, I discovered this picture that Miles brought home. From what I am told, he drew this on his first day back to […]
How is it Friday again? It feels like only yesterday that I posted my High Five Friday post, not two weeks ago. Easter will be here before we know it. I say this because yesterday I succumb and bought hot cross buns (of the salted caramel variety). Five Pictures While tiding up the other day I […]
