Recent Drawings

Mya is forever sketching. Here are just a couple from the past week. 

Rocktopia Climbing

Mya did some great climbing today and managed some climbs that she hasn’t been able to do in the past. 

Spaghetti

On a wet winters day, what else to do than make spaghetti. My new pasta stand works brilliantly. 

Me and My Gal

Tooth Fairy Tonight

Another tooth came out this evening. 

One from the bottom on the right. The tooth fairy left $2 under Mya’s pillow. 

Maths Whizz Champ

Even though Mya is back at school she has still been continuing her maths Whizz work at home in the evenings. We are super proud of her when she came home with a Gold and Bronze certificate presented by the Principal of school for her recent weeks’ works. 

Land Slide

After a council truck kindly reversed into our Punga retaining wall on the drive it has been breaking away. We had very heavy rain at the end of last week and it could not hold up any more and decided to slip down into the drive. 

Poor John got out in the rain on Saturday and once he’d moved and cleared all the soil, started to try and brace up the bank. 

He is amazing and somehow found some bracing wires to attach to and create a mesh wall with chicken wire to hold the soil in place. 

He then used some pungas from around the garden to make good the wall. 

Lastly he had to shovel all the soil up over the back of the punga to fill in where it had slipped from. He was completely exhausted at the end if it but did an amazing job.
