A princess in the field...

After the music muster today I decided to take you to a field just below our home for some photo's. You were still in your muster outfit and you looked adorable....here's some photo's we did.























Mt Beauty Music Muster

I am so proud of you honey. I must say you were very excited about going to the Muster and performing....but just before your item you wanted out big time. I think the loud noise just gets the better of you.

Thankfully, with moments to spare, you decided to do it and as anyone can see - you had a ball!

You looked so beautiful - I felt very VERY proud xxx

Easter fun at Tawonga Holiday Park

We had another beautiful (although VERY busy) Easter camping down at the local park. I just love staying there so much and Ebony had a wonderful time with Kayla, Jordan, Jesse and the other wonderful families that joined us over the time we were there.

I had had a very busy lead up to Easter with the B&B and that continued on during and after - so I was missing a bit during the day - but any time I had was wonderful.

We also had a 6th birthday party to go to on the Saturday afternoon - then it was straight from there to Avenel to visit with Graham's daughter and her beautiful new son. It was a lovely time.

Sunday morning was very special with Easter bunny making an appearance for the children and LOTS of chocolate for them to gather/share/enjoy....followed by pancakes for breakfast, which the caravan park do each year (for a small donation that goes to the local hospital). All in all, it was a lovely weekend and lots of great memories.

Some views of the gorgeous Kiewa River in the morning...








and a very excited and happy little girl waking up with gorgeous views outside the tent....




then it was time for some bubbles with Eb and Kayla...






then it was 6th Birthday party time....


Sunday dawned and it was sweet little bunny's everywhere!




and some fun hiding amongst egg searching...






in the afternoon we headed to the local park for the children to have some fun together...


and we couldn't believe it when Eb decided to take on the local 'skate park'! She just went and the first time she actually hit a wall and fell of the bike - but to our total amazement she got straight back on and even though she took another fall she still kept going back! To think that it was only a matter of months ago she could barely ride! She has learnt so much this weekend with watching and participating with the other children - it's been such fun to watch.




This is daddy Ric with their youngest son Jesse....


Love this photo of Jesse

We only arrived home from King Valley yesterday, but today both little Sarah and I had appointments with the Dentist in Bright - so we all headed over there and had a lovely day together...and another opportunity for a few quick photo's...straight out of camera.



King Valley with Susan and Sarah

Susan, Sarah, Ebony and I headed off for King Valley and a lovely weekend of fun, joy, fellowship, craft and.....photo's!

It was such a lovely weekend and we got to go for lovely walks - have fun doing craft together - Susan did some cooking with the girls...gingerbread men and yummy chocolates! We all had such a lovely time and we look forward to going back before too long.

We also visited the waterfall that I had found when there in January and thanks to the lovely rain we have had the falls were really special again.

It was a beautiful few days - lovely memories made and the girls had a ball!

I loved the opportunities for photography practice too of course.....

First - when we arrived we gave sweet Sarah, who had turned 7 while we were in Dromana - her birthday present...


Then, we went for a lovely walk with the girls....






....and a bit of time for face painting by .....me!


Then we donned some pretty pettiskirts and headed around the farm...
































...then a bit of scenery - isn't this place divine???




..and then the much anticipated cooking!






.....and then a final visit to the falls...














Below are some video's of the fun we had....
