AUGUST 2014





These two have a great time playing together, shame Ruby has to go home this afternoon.....


Mummy I am clean again now Ruby and I played and ran and ran this morning while the grass was damp.


Lady loves her bed in the sun. She is a sweet girl very gentle.


Lady I think you are dreaming little Sam's bed is way too small for you....pimple on a pumpkin comes to mind! Lady seems to love having the other dogs to play with.


Jet with a toy he loves his toys and so does Sam his brother, they bring you one each morning sweet little boys. They loved their time with Sienna.


Sam is back while Mum has gone camping, the dolphins were playing down The Cut today. Felt terrible leaving Lady Thompson at home she cannot walk as far as this lot.I think she is enjoying the company of other dogs and likes lots of cuddles.


"Lady Thompson" likes to snuggle she was very relaxed seeing this was her first night and she has not been away from her Mum and Dad before. Wanda relax and enjoy your holiday, I have got this!


Jet sleeping and Sam  sitting on my knee watching telly, Sam breaks me up. 





These two love each other so much and play and play. One has the head and one the body of the teddy! I love the way each morning they greet you with a toy each. Sweet brothers. The sun has disappeared again so they are back in bed after a good play.



Al has just arrived dear girl. Boo loves everyone elses bed other than her own she has slept in them all.



Dear Al is a grand old lady now and has just had a haircut so has a new jacket. I love my new lounges.Al loves to snuggle on the sheep skins, I hate taking Jet and Sam out and having to leave her at home, I think she thinks we are going to the beach which she loves sooooo much......


Boo is a very good and pretty little girl - top shot 


This is why I love dogs so much.....................


I can't for the life of me think who this reminds me of!!!!! But it starts with "S"





Check out the way Jet and Sam sit you would think they belonged to the Queen....very regal I like the sound of Queen Lynn and King Reno (their parents!!!) LOL A big walk and then off to Red Rooster to get them a chicken for dinner, Jet is soooooo fussy!!!!! I have to hand feed him.


Boo doing a little rock climbing, she has been a very good girl Mummy and I am holding tight to her lead. Boo is a great dancer.


It is not a very nice day but the hounds enjoyed a good walk up The Cut they were all good now fast asleep! Boo, Jet & Sam - Mighty good looking hounds all of them.


Jet and Sam looking out the window for Mum and Dad on day one, they do this a lot to start with and then settle. Two very spoilt well behaved boys.


Boo loves her food and sleep this is night one and she has settled in well in Sam and Jets bed!


A lovely sunny day so off to The Cut for some yummy fish and chips and then a walk along the foreshore. They were catching a lot of herring here today. No dolphins. The sunshine was heaven.


A nice sunny day and off for our walk down The Cut. No dolphins and it was flowing very fast. Trav has gone to golf after a bad start to his day. His car brakes are playing up, so I had to drive down and get Sienna, he broke his lawn mower and wiper sniper..............so I guess he is taking it out on those golf balls it is a beautiful day for it.


Sienna and Sam played well together. Sienna has the new boots from Nanny Sharon she is a lucky girl.



CATCH OF THE DAY


This is a day I never thought I would see................a 80 cm pink snapper. Roy next door filleted it for us and I must say it was the whitest and best fish I have ever eaten...........it was beautiful. Trav. could not get the smile off his face. WELL DONE TRAVIS.


Nothing like fresh fish


A very proud fisherman


Sienna is proud of her daddy after all the hours they have spent together fishing


2nd August "A girls day out in the sun"




Sienna and baby - we have no dogs to care for so decided to have some fun and a girls day out. We skyped Scott, Ange and baby Ben who is crawling and almost walking at 6 1/2 months, one big boy Baby Ben who is a real happy baby.
Then down The Cut to see some dolphins and  a walk along the beach followed by a Chinese Meal of King Prawns Yum Yum. - First nice day in weeks so it was good to get out and about. Daddy has gone fishing and caught a "thumper" Pink Snapper 80 cm long so he is very EXCITED. Dare I say about bloody time! He is on his way and we are going to have fish for dinner.......this is a first!!!!!!


A little rock climbing with baby.





Sienna loves her prawn crackers


Followed by her very favourites....King Prawns and Prawn toast - Below polishing off the steamed rice she loves her food our girl

July 2014





I managed to get these two out for a walk after all the cold wet weather of the last week. Max was not keen on the bridge, I think he must be scared of  heights, he did get use to it by the end of our walk. Indi is checking out the fishermen. They both may sleep now instead of using the house as a race track.


Max is a delightful little man and Indi and him play and play which is good as it has not stopped raining since he got here so no walks yet maybe this afternoon we are all a little house bound thanks to the weather and the cold. Below: First morning and brekky in bed. Max loves the sheep skin.



I have a very cute new 12 week old niece young Zoe Waddell.  Mum and baby doing really well she is a very clever baby and is settling in very well and getting pampered.My what big eyes you have Zoe.

July School Holidays


My little dog walker helper with Maggie, Toby and Indi


A big play and now these two are having a big rest. Indi is so funny with Sienna and has a black face and black eyes so you can never see what she is looking at. Sienna is going to miss her.


Teaching Indi to dance. They played well together.


We went to Ikea and out of all the Teddys and toys she wanted this cat, great for the Dog Sitting.


After three years and god knows how much money I may get a lemon this year off my tree. 
They will be available for sale at what they owe me around $120 each
Lay-bys accepted.


Trav Sienna and I went to The Cut to walk the dogs on a lovely sunny day before lunch
We got a BIG surprise to see this swimming below, the word spread quickly and their were people everywhere. The dolphins came and swam with it for a while. Trav has some good shots of that.



A nice cruise to see the houses on a lovely sunny day they got a real surprise to see the whale nearly in their boat. Below heading home for a change of nickers!!!!!


Thats all folks



Pinnaroo for Peter's plaque laying and to visit Dorothy. 11th July 2014

Pinnaroo is a lovely spot the kanagaroos were all out sunning themselves on a beautiful winters day.


Deanne did a stunning job with this plaque, it was set on marble Peter would love it


Cockatoo Ridge is a very pretty bush part of Pinnaroo


Greg Polick Peter's best mate from primary school he misses Peter so much

A little hard to get a good seat around here so I just sat on Jenny's shoulder Ollie you are a character.


Indi plum tucked out after a day playing with Ollie.


Charlie is Harvey's brother and they came to stay one wet and windy day cause their Dad is in hospital. We are all watching House Rules and going for Lisa and Adam......Charlie settled in fine he loves his food. If the weather is better we can go for a walk in the morning.




Sam and Indi on their walk before the storm hits later today....the calm before the storm.


Maggie Toby and Indy down The Cut watching the fishermen no dolphins today but it was so sunny and lovely. 


Feeding time at Jules and Robs. This is the advantage of living up in the trees all the birds come to visit.

June 2014



A nice sunny day after all the bad weather I was gardening and gave Harvey the lamb bone he loved it and kept burying it and then digging it up I think he ended up finishing the whole thing in the one day No sharing for our boy.

These two are going to miss each other. Amber adored Harvey and really wears him out playing chasey, Harvey loves everyone and is a good boy.


Another cold wet and windy day, Harvey was all snuggled up in his bed when the monster Amber decided she wanted the big bed, so good old Harvey moved to the smaller one and now looks like a pimple on a pumpkin, he has the patience of a saint our Harvey....these two love to play together.


Wet windy and cold we can't go out for the 2nd day in a row, I must have dropped something and it went under the fridge these two spent half the day trying to get something out from under it.


A freezing Monday morning.....breakfast a game of chasey and then back to bed! Happy little Campers


Sienna with Mabel and Amber down The Cut on a lovely sunny day watching the dolphins and the fishermen


Sienna doing a love heart with Mabel



Harvey breaks me up bring out the camera and he turns into a real poser. Lovely gentle man our Harvey. The look of horror on Sienna's face is cause I dropped her new jumper and she reckoned I did not care!



A little rock climbing with Amber to finish off the afternoon they should all sleep well tonight. - oops looks like Amber is still learning the art of rock climbing.
Sienna lost a tooth today so is excited about the tooth fairy tonight.....


Amber  having her first night away from home, 5 months old......would butter melt in her mouth!!!!!!! It's been a while since I have sat a baby....you need eyes in the back of your head as she picks everything up!
Below is her lovely sister Mabel who always has her tongue out she is very cute.



A lazy Saturday morning watching the cartoons. Harvey is back while his Mum is in Africa for a couple weeks. Below Sienna helping with the baby sitting business. My little girl is growing up she is now allowed to chew gum and Loves it!
