Big Dam

 

We ended off our last day of spring break with our special friends at Big Dam.

I love this time of year, when every little detail comes alive with bright colours of the season. This also means that it is fishing season for my boys. Well mostly for Rob and Garren. Almost every weekend will be spent beside a water filled dam or lake. And with Danika being a little older we may join in on a few of those days playing along the shore line.

I hope your break was restful and rejuvenating and that the next few months of the long haul of term 4 treats you well. Good luck to all our big children who start their last term of exams. I know our home is always quiet and serious (for our eldest children) this time of the year.

The last week of September

The last week of September is done.

It brought with it my 40th spin around our Sun.

As well as the last days of the 3rd term of homeschooling which now means we are on Spring break. A much needed break this week for not only the small children but for this Mamma too - my house needs urgent spring cleaning attention. All the nitty gritty of house work always gets shelved during the school term.

It also bared a much needed break from social media. Not intentional I might add but it was needed - thank you cloud covered sky and stormy echos from the heavens for ever knowing just what my soul needs.

Welcome October.

The Long Weekend

It was the long weekend and it rained, rained and rained some more. In fact the whole long weekend was spent watching tiny droplets splatter against the window panes and listening to grumblings echo from the sky.

It rained out our god daughter's 4 birthday party and it rained out Heritage day. Heritage day also known as National Braai day around these parts was celebrated with homemade pie instead.
