home soon

Max was 6 months old yesterday and Sonya, Toby and Max leave Amsterdam for NZ tomorrow morning. I feel kinda sad on one hand for them 'cause I know what a cool city Amsterdam is and how much they have enjoyed living there amongst friends and family, and happy on the other hand for me because now I will get to see them more!

My Gran bought me this doll when I was about 5. She took me into Farmers and I believe she had something else in mind but I fell in love with this doll. So being the really fantastic Gran that she was, she bought what I wanted. I remember that distinctly. I aspire to be the same sort of high quality grandparent! For now, I need to fix her somehow.

There's a whole genre of iPhone photography out there to explore.

necklace

Sometimes you set out to make something and it just works. I love those day.
Made a necklace for my nieces wedding with beads and ribbon purchased in Coromandel Town.

echinacea

I love echinacea flowers. It's just the way they hold their heads up I think.

home time

Coming home at last!

dream house

It's a family joke, we always used to notice them, the potential 'dream houses' spied when cruising isolated highways. One day I'll stop and take a photo of every one of them.
