Shearing shed

Pa Pete has been quietly pottering away building the Shearing shed 




Raised board

Sheep Chutes 

Term 1 done

With Term 1 done & dusted it was time for a bit of relaxing.....


But first lets loose our first tooth!!


Someone looking sweet after she was caught with the biscuit barrel.....

I decided it was time for an adventure and wanting to cement my Awesome Aunty Status, I grabbed Kida & Bentley and went for a drive to Horsham to go for a swim at the Indoor Pool 


Stopping along the way at Nhill to check out the big playground and where the boardwalk goes...

 


What did we find???


A huge lovely lake! Never knew that was there!



 After a big swim, lunch & play in the park at Horsham, we set off home again. Didn't take long before everyone nodded off....


A great little adventure for 6 kids & 1 Adult!
