bauble racing

today's wind didn't create the best conditions for shooting our christmas card image however the runaway baubles and eventual bauble racing was a heap of fun!

Anyone watching must have thought that myself and the mighty toddler were mad, but I suggest everyone give it a go - it is the perfect antidote for pre-christmas stress!

bloomin Bracteantha

Like little balls of sunshine the Bracteantha of Somers are bursting into bloom!

These plants are from my own garden and although they are in need of a good prune they are providing some early summer color which should last throughout the season.  

it's a sunny day in Somers....

perfect conditions for completing those domestic duties!

a warm, windy, wet & wonderful weekend

I think we can now put away our winter warmers as summer is well and truly on its way.

A balmy weekend with warm rain and strong breezes ended with a spectacular storm of which I was lucky enough to catch the very last of from the beach. I hope you had a good one.......

it's a dogs life

daylight savings heralds the start of the dog restriction season on the beach at Somers.

we need to be on the sand early to ensure our four legged friend gets his much loved run and swim.

many a dog can be found wet, sandy and oh so happy resting outside the store after this perfect start to their day!
