fremantle wool stores

a busy and frantic end to the school year - lists lists lists

it's the third christmas in my little home

going through old journals ...

christmas two thousand and nine
rachel come over for dinner christmas eve... we ate spinach and ricotta canneloni, fresh apricots and home made biscuits. the tree is decorated with tiny, home-made, white angels



christmas two thousand and ten
pancakes and presents this morning
listening to glee with my little brother jeremy while making the mango and avocado salsa
off to mandy and graemes for lunch
beautiful nibbles ...bowls of lollies, feta and thyme, bococcini and tomato, guacamole and corn chips ...
amazing duck fat potatoes for lunch
stifling hot heat
presents packed to the roof
 


here's to christmas two thousand and eleven !

many happy wishes and love

i love that they were all shot on film cameras - long before the digital age



here sits my parents, my aunty mandy and uncle graeme and my uncle dean

something wonderful happened last thursday



i went to see the national play
they finished their set and came out to play an encore
two pieces in and we all thought they were done for the night


each one of them then unplugged their microphones and ear pieces and walked to the front, centre of the stage
they then played this
no amplification
you could have heard a pin drop




never have i witnessed such an engaged audience 
everyone began to join in the singing - but quietly - not with the usual "sing a long" rowdiness






incredible.

i keep a box under my bed
it's a collection of all different pieces of paper
old cards ... photos ... letters ... postcards ...

tonight i found this quote written on a piece of paper
i remember writing it in year eleven
i still love it


to see the world in a grain of sand
and heaven in a wildflower
hold infinity in the palm of your hand
and eternity in an hour
