slipstream...



Ok, it's Monday night already but my head is still in the weekend.  Although a million Monday things have already whirled past me, pulling me along in a week day slip stream,  I still have one foot in Saturday....where I became a footy mum. Yep, and he's wearing No. 18. Ok so I wasn't actually there because I am officially ballet mum on Saturdays, but I heard he had fun, marked the ball, had a kick.


And after a busy, driving, snack making, dance watching Saturday a sleepy Sunday afternoon saw horses,


beautiful, brown eyed, long lashed, horses.


Lucky we live near a ranch where they have trail rides through the bush,


and lucky we have a sweetie pie neighbour friend to go horse riding with! Go Ruby!


We also had a visit to Mum's in Hepburn. I marvelled at her red shoes and blue socks, her jigsaw puzzle, her cute ways,


& her tomatoes all in a row.


Here she is, watering her oasis, a happy face in a cloud of green.
How was your weekend? Was it a fun one?
I think I pulled a muscle chasing ducks around trying to do that damn peep/quack test...but guess what?
Rosie the Duck Lady was spot on! She worked out the boys from the girls just from a photo, amazing.
So we do have seven boys & two girls. Wow.

Off to beddie bies for me, I'm a tired old chook tonight.
Sleep tight lovely friends, and if you're in the mood, pop back
soon for a Dandelion giveaway!! xo

I could just imagine you running around the backyard trying to catch ducks to squeeze them. Glad Bill had a great day playing football, and your mum's garden looks so lush and green!
