This blog has been created to allow family and friends to share in and become part of the experience of 'Down at the Farm'.
Enjoy the children, their love for each other and their open hearted wonder and excitement.
Over time you will get to know the farm through their eyes and will see how they spend their day with each other in a very rich, organic way.
Each vignette is a snapshot in time. Follow from one to another, then on to more and you can share in our unfoldment and journey.

Sunshine, cool air and much to enjoy ...

What a gorgeous day!  The sky clear and blue, the clouds few and far between, the farm green and soft, fire ablaze in the barn and the fresh cold outdoors to be in.

Holly, Rosie, Ryder and Willow had a wonderful time at the farm together amongst all this.

Ryder spent the day enjoying himself heaps and being hit by the memory bug.  All of a sudden we'd encounter something he'd done when he was a regular visitor age 2-3 and he'd say, 'I remember this ... ...' and I'd watch him take it in a new.


Willow mooched along all morning happy to be with us all and by afternoon was on fire with enthusiasm and her sense of humour to the fore ... she loved, amongst much more, schlooping around in the mud and inspired everyone to do the same ... lots of smiles and laughter there


Rosie and Holly warmed up as the day went on and it didn't take long to feel like there had been no time at all between our last meeting and the day we were sharing.

Rosie had her camera with her and was really intent on taking her own photographs of the day ... ... she was quite gorgeous with her attention on this and really intent on caring about the quality of the shots she took, very patient and mature.



Holly was fun, she had spontaneous moments of much humour all day long and a little creative spark would shine through too ... ... like when she picked up some dry grass and immediately held it to her head as a princess crown, and perfect for that it was ...



We fed horses, cuddled guinea pigs, visited the vege garden, climbed trees, played in the mud, walked for miles, wandered into the back of the convent to see the garden there and so much more ... enjoy a peek at our day ...

Looks like so much fun, I love the shots of them in the mud!

Can't believe how grown up Rebbekah is!

It was fun Christie, Willow was on fire in the mud. The initiator and instigator of the fun and play with all the 'big kids' happy to follow, her laugh and her lead!

... and yes Rebekkah is very grown up now in the best of all ways now ...
