Reflections of Summer

He's been!  He's been!

Maiden Voyage

And She's Away

Not real, but The Fairy enjoyed decorating.

Lunch Overlooking Bells Beach

Windy Great Ocean Road

Learning to Dive with Dad

Mermaid

Endless summer days
And so, they have been back at school for nearly 4 weeks now. The train has left the station and won't be stopping until the Easter holidays.  Today I took a moment to look through the summer holiday photos and take a breath.  Aaahhh.

By week 3 The Fairy already had nits and although dealt with swiftly, if somewhat reluctantly, I've been itching for the past week.  I've got no one to comb through my hair for me.  Tomorrow will be spent treating and combing through best I can by myself.

My Mr T took part in his school swim carnival today.  He was not keen on competing at all, but after winning the first race there was no stopping him trying them all.  I was surprised he wanted me to go along.  It felt good that he was happy for me to be there.  He came home with a handful of ribbons.  Proud Mum Moment.

Hoping everyone out there in blogland
is having a lovely week.

To see a christmas tree under the theme reflections of summer is just too strange for me as a german. Even educated and knowing so much - pictures still tough in a very special way, ;-)
Thanks for your comment.
Best, Antje
