About Me

My photo
Love being mother of four, grandmother of nine, wife of one!! Aunt Sister Daughter Friend Cousin all the good things.... I love living in Queensland as have done for the past 20 years. I love being at home rearranging the furniture and doona covers, out side working in the garden , taking photos of my family or the beautiful things you can find that nature has provided for us. I guess you could say I'm one of the lucky ones.

Outings

With my souvenirs (looking pretty chuffed with myself )


Helmut Lotti Concert
well I have been very spoilt lately, My darling surprised me with concert tickets to see Helmut Lotti. "Who" I can hear you all asking, well he is a Belguim singer who has the most amazing voice and can sing everything from opera to pop and rock. Does the best Elvis since the king himself. I have 3 of his DVDs and 3 CD and just love to listen to him, he's pretty easy on the eye as well. The concert was at The Convention Centre so we got to stay next door at Conrad Jupiters on the Gold Coast. Great room and view. Was a really wonderful night and as my Darling organised it , it was even more special.



Lost Arts Day

baby Llama, how cute is she

Mud bricks being made into an oven

Making butter the hard way
Saturday we went to The Lost Arts Day in aid of Angel Flight.
Held at Wallu a small area about 50 kms from Gympie.
Was a lovely early start, slight drizzle of rain but then it heated up to a very hot and very dry dusty day. The heavy horses were doing their thing in the paddock which was stiring up a whole lot more dust, but lovely to watch. They had butter making , shearing sheep, cow milking, lots of stalls selling their produce. The scouts put on billy tea and damper for a gold coin...very cheap cuppa. We left about 4 pm but they were going to have a pig on the spit and a band playing later on in the evening.
Hope they made heaps of money for a great charity and well done to Darryl who put it on. Hopefully will be an annual event and bigger every year. I'll try and put some pics in but this blog page seems to get the better of me and my photo placements. ( Well well I did it)

Now I've played on the computer long enough so I'd better get some other work done

one more interesting pic, my ants
I Know "weird " my girls will say
they are actually eating the poison I put out for them

till next time, stay safe and happy....TP
