I have a new magic trick – I can make three teenage boys disappear… just by walking into the room with my camera! Scardy-cats!
These beautiful flowers are my reward… because about 14-ish years ago I made a very wise choice… I chose a man who would bring me my favourite flowers 'just because' <3 <3 <3
Our last dinner with all our girls, before Jaimi headed off again <3
Soooo… apparently these two are related… who would have guessed?
Hmmm… it looks like Gamer-Yoda has a Padawan… oh joy.
You
know those once-in-a-lifetime events that you think you will never
witness… and if you do, by some rare chance, get to witness such an
event, you know you never will again… well, Darci running, is that
event for me!
In case you can't pick her… she's the 'quirky' one (we try not to use the word 'weird' 😉 ) wearing the blue Spock uniform and cape… totally normal, right?
What
a pity that the only photos I took today were of beautiful baby
Chelsea… I guess that means I just HAVE to share another, for my
photo-a-day <3
Guess who went to Movieland today ?
Zoe's visitor from Victoria, Jenna!
My stunning Xanthia | 12 years old <3
First light with my gorgeous girls <3
I saw her dressed like this (yes, this IS her outfit – no prompting or
costume party in sight!), and couldn't get this song out of my mind – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sn9mLnKmPco
Postscript: Bwahahahaha… even Facebook thinks Darci looks like me – it just placed a box around her head and asked if I wanted to tag myself!
A
rare day off for my ranga… and this is how he chose to spend it –
playing Littlest Petshop Monopoly with Willow, Zoe and Jenna <3 <3 <3
This
is the crew we took to the movies today… add my ranga and I to the
mix, and we were just one short of filling a entire row in the cinema!
Girl POWER!
Three wise monkeys?? …. or not … Jaimi, Zoe and Zoe's visiting BFF from Victoria, Jenna.
Oh what an inspirational day, watching and working with Luisa Dunn Photography and nine day Olive <3
My expo stand… it was a great day at the Gallipoli Barracks Family Day.
Four Heartfelt sessions in two days… this was a tough week for some amazing, strong families <3
This is my favourite place to take morning photos… the light; the scenery; the sky… I just love it all <3
All my girls – back together again <3
Whoops… so many misses lately!
The
amount of squeals of excitement and happy dances that the arrival of
these shirts incited today, boarded on disturbing… Darci (&
Amelia) like to consider themselves 'Quirky' … but that's not the
first word that pops into my head ;P ‎#geek ‎#nerd ‎#cra-cra
Willow
was reading 'The Guinness Book of Records' to us while we were cooking
dinner… Xan was helping out with some of the tougher names…
'Joaquin' was a particularly dodgy one for our learner reader 🙂
Half
way between Xan's hockey field and Willow's, a challenge ensued… Xan
was looking in fine form, while Darci, once again, was the spitting
image of her mother!
Movie night!… you can't tell my the looks on their faces, but they were actually enjoying 'Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy' 🙂
If
Darci ever develops a nut allergy, I think she will literally starve to
death from the removal of peanut butter from her diet!
(ps: when you see it, you will laugh!)
My babies… 16 month old Emmett, and 10 year old Willow… I can't even tell you how much I LOVE this photo!! <3 <3 <3
… and another one bites the dust!
I may have mentioned this before, but Xanthia hates her freckles… me, on the other hand… <3
Last
year I turned *cough*40*cough*… last month my eldest daughter turned
21… today, I finally had to admit that I can see the netball coming
better, if I wear my glasses on the court… but you know what, I am
still rockin' the pigtails!
This
is what my school fees are paying for… a bunch of Yr12 kids leaving
their Open Day early to come home and play on the Nintendo64… yep –
rockin' it old school!
Getting my grunge on with Willow, today.
Zoe is never home these days… what with uni, and work… so it was pretty
easy to guilt her into being today's model… and what a stunning model
she makes <3
So… this was a tough gig… photographing the New Zealand Warriors at the Arana Hills Swim School … lovin' the smooth moves guys 🙂
Emmett
came to hockey today… it was a tough gig for him, being patted and
cuddled all day! He was using Willow as a pillow here… he likes to
lean, sit or lie on you, so you can't get away!
Finishing the month on a high… with my stunning Willow … seriously – how gorgeous is she!
