July holidays......

Our holiday started with my birthday...
I received two beautiful bunches of flowers.

These are from Nick.

These are from my parents who were holidaying over east at the time.

The first couple of days..... this is how the kids spent it....
Good 'ole quality time of their DS's....

Chloe felt like baking... Yummy...

Playdoh time with the neighbours grandchildren...

Fishing down at the ponds with cousins...

And swimming :)... It was freezing... Silly boys...

Posing in the bush...

A walk/ rollerblade/ scooter from Emu Point to Middleton Beach...
and then all the way back again where we enjoyed a beautiful lunch in the sunshine.

Looking at some boats on the water. Corey is always helping his little sister.

Yep..... You're not seeing things... That's me on the scooter....
Boy they are FUN... Rose is on my back because she was getting a bit tired.

Posing again :)

I sewed Rose a laundry bag for her bedroom... She had been bugging me for
a while because I had made one for the other kids already.
They were heaps of fun to make.

The green one is Chloe's and the black one is for the boys...

Chloe went for private horse riding lessons. She is enjoying them heaps.
She has a really lovely teacher and has learnt a lot from her.

Rose patting the horse.

While Chloe went horse riding... the boys went fishing...
Corey with a queen snapper...

Travis with a breaksea cod.

Their catch.... Nice work boys... YUMMY!!!

Travis and Leo

While Nick was away all the kids came to Chloe's horse riding lesson.
There is a beautiful bush surrounding the horse paddock.
Corey and Rose posing for me....

The teacher asked if the kids would like to have a little ride.
They were very excited....

We celebrated Nick's birthday at the end of the school holidays...
I found this photo on my camera of the card I gave Nick...
A certain little miss hijacked my camera :)

This photo was taken by Rose when we visited the farm.
Beautiful shot. This calf is 2 days old...

Aaaahhhh... A little black kitten.....
Every time we go to the farm.. the kids want to find some kittens...
They got lucky once again....

We did a little shootin..... Rose loved it... She even fired the gun too...

Rabbit stew anyone????

And now we are back into the swing of school routines.
I hope you all had a wonderful, relaxing break....
All the best for Term 3.... Crumbs.... time is a flying...

Love Monty xx

June randoms.....

Sorry for the lack of posts.... Life is VERY busy...
Here are some things we have done this past June....

The boys decided to make a bike jump with bricks and a little ramp..

Corey leaping high..

Travis having a go..

and... Rose had to join in too... VERY brave she was...

One Saturday Chloe asked if Rosalee could go to horse riding lessons
instead of her. She offered to help her with everything.
It was such a nice gesture of Chloe and it was gorgeous to watch the two
of them together out in the paddock. She is a wonderful big sister...

The grin says it all..... :)

Brush down....

Treats for Bobby...

Two weeks ago we attended a wedding of a niece from my side
of the family to a nephew of Nick's side of the family.
It was a beautiful day spent with our beautiful families.

We had a quick photo of our own family before we left for church....

Story time on a Sunday evening with Dad before bed.....

I hope you are all going well..
All the best for the last week of school..

Cheers, Monty xx

Bremer Bay 2013...

We were able to once again take a two week holiday and head
down to Bremer Bay. We had a wonderful time with friends and family.

I'll let the photos do most of the talking..

Rose got her very own rod. She bugged us to take her fishing.
We took her to the marina. She caught numerous fish.
This skippy is one of them...
