I think it’s lovely to celebrate the arrival of a new baby with the people you love. Depending on your religious beliefs many families have a special ceremony whether it be a Christening, Blessing Day, or Naming Ceremony. For our family it’s referred to as a Dedication Day and an opportunity to thank God for our blessings. No words or pictures can truly capture what a special day it was for our family. Watching my Mum read a story to the kids while I got ready and seeing my 90 year old ...
Baby Dedication Day
Peony Farm Visits
Every year out little family goes to visit the Spring Hill Peony Farm. I love flower farms and they are one of my favourite Spring PYO events. Last year when we visited I was shooting this pretty Alannah Hill dress for their spring collections while still hiding my baby bump.

The Goldfields region has such rich healthy soil, it's perfect for growing the best produce. Visiting a farm is an opportunity to support the producers of our amazing food, while having fun day out. If you have never been to Buninyong before, it's a small ...
A Simple Spring Birthday Party
I‘m finally catching up and editing pictures from some of our activities last year. So here you are, some belated pics from Roo’s third birthday. I had planned to go very low key with no formal party this year, just family and a casual dinner outside. I initially had no intention of sharing these pics but with the wisteria blossoming over the verandah the pictures were too pretty not to share. Event details Photos: ...
