Spring Rain Play






Spring Rain Play






Wedding Joy

This is nice - in an apartment in Melbourne - children in bed - and washing underway - husband reading Vogue Living dreaming about what our new house might be like...

It has been a long haul this moving house business - and still only half way - living at my parents. So much has been neglected in the last month or so - especially my blogging, my studio, my drawing, my exercise, well me really.

Here is a treat any how - Hj and I getting ready for a very special wedding. I love these photos.







Hows this pic - Kd on the piano at the reception - he played some fine pieces.

A little ray of spring



We have been experiencing a cold and wet winter - which is wonderful. J and I just adore the cold.

On Saturday it was almost like spring - the kids spent the day out doors. I pulled out a few weeds - amazing how good that made me feel!

Kd whipped his clothes off and Hj organised a picnic!

Tree Planting back in the Day

My darling brother sent me through these images of tree planting back in the early '90s when we were still on the farm at Dingee. Must be a forest there now.









Mum started it all of course and had a green house/hot house of little seedlings from seeds she collected herself. It was normal for us to travel with recycled paper bags and collect seeds from trees Mum admired on our family outings. Little brown packets of shakers drying in the car and the dresser in the kitchen.

I remember one time she made a commitment to going for a walk each day and took at least one tree with her to plant.

Thomas Fuller (1654 - 1734) said "He (or she!)who plants a tree loves other beside himself."

I am planning to get involved in this tree growing project once we are in our new home.
