Home Grown Veggies and Outdoor Bucket Bath

All of our salad this evening was grown in the garden.


Only way to bath on a hot Summer's evening is Alfresco!

New Chicken House

The last couple of weekends John has been building a new chicken shed for our chooks.  
It's much more protected from the weather, has lots of roosting perches and cosy nesting boxes.  


Now we need to keep them in the pen for a couple of days so they get use to it.

Summer Holiday Fun

Mya decided to paint her own face today.....
She hasn't yet learnt the concept of 'less is more'.

This evening she held a Masquerade Ball on the patio, even Titan had to dress up!

Plum Picking Time

A great picking today, filling 2 buckets and still left a lot on the tree that were way too high to reach.
Yummy plum tart for pudding. Happy tummies! 😊

Ohope Bliss

Mya and I have just had a wonderfully relaxing couple of days at Gaga's beach house.

The best place on earth to sit and have freshly baked patisseries and coffee, heaven.

Relaxing on the deck.

Wonderful evening meal with a stunning view.

Fun times with Gaga

Paddling, kite flying, biking and building.

Sheep Herding

Mya is now our top Sheep Herder, she was chasing the poor animals all over the paddock today!

New Bantams

After the sad demise of our fairy queen bantam (she died of old age). We now have 2 new grey Mottled Pekin Silkies.  They are very cute and also tame enough to pick up and stroke. Mya has named them Elsa and Anna!

Pretending It's Autumn

After a bit of tree pruning, Mya wanted to pretend it's autumn and play in the leaves, and then have a wheelbarrow ride with Titan.

Caelan Sitting

Had a fun morning looking after Caelan, whilst Adele had to pop into work. He was an angel, even sleeping for over and hour and a half.

Vegetable Patch

To stop the chickens eating my vegetables, John built me a 2m fence all round my vegetable beds.  Now the chooks can roam free again and I can enjoy my gardening.  Not bad for an afternoons work. Happy days!
