This is January’s challenge and the fabulous little calendar I made from all those photos:


February is underway, and a new challenge will be created each month – if you decide to join in the fun, let me know so I can follow you.  Take care and thanks for stopping by.

A few short weeks later, Miss Maycee was welcomed to the world and the little family of three, became four…Take care and thanks for stopping by.

Week 26: Something Red…

A treasured gift from a much loved friend.

Week 27: Christmas…

Sorry, not very Christmas-y, but I decided to go with New Years instead.

Here’s to 2012 being an absolutely fabulous year.  Take care and thanks for stopping by.

A bird is three things: Feathers, flight and song and feathers are the least of these.

These are the sounds of home…magpie geese honking as they fly overhead.

Wishing you and yours and very Merry Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year.  Thanks for stopping by.

“The sky, a perfect empty canvas, offers clouds nonetheless. They shift and drift and beg interpretation… such is the nature of art.” – Jeb Dickerson

This was the easiest of the weekly challenges so far.  Thanks to the lovely Miss Fran and her cloud-dreaming, I’m a wee bit obsessed with clouds.  Cloud-dreaming is the perfect way to waste a little time when you’re stuck in traffic or waiting for the kids at school, it makes hanging out the washing a little easier to bear and it takes me back to my childhood where I’d imagine all sorts of weird and wonderful things way up there in the clouds.  Since I have my phone with me all the time, it’s ever-so-easy just to snap away and then post them to Instagram {but that’s a whole other obsession}.

These are just a few of my favourites clouds from the past week, except for the heart in the centre, it’s from a little while ago.

Take care and thanks for stopping by.

All you need is a torch and a little bit of patience, but it’s so totally worth it.

Hope you are having a fabulous week – thanks for stopping by.

How lucky am I?  This beauty is right across the road and I get to see her everyday.

Week 22:  A Photo Depicting Emotion…

This is the gorgeous little Miss Charli, doing her very best “ho, ho, ho”.   I think she’s a little excited about Christmas.

Take care and thanks for stopping by.

The Laughing Kookaburra – I’m sure he was laughing at my efforts to get a decent photo of him – so many epic fails – but I finally got one.  I just love how he looks so proud.

Hope you have a fabulous week planned, thanks for stopping by.
