Advent 1.


We lit the first candle for Advent; the coming of Christ (although Christ is with us now...)


A circular plate as it represents the eternity of God.


I am missing the evergreen foliage as it has been raining and I would like to wait till the holly bush is dry again before I bring some in. Evergreens, He is ever with us.


We read Romans 15:12-13.


And again, Isaiah says,

"The Root of Jesse will spring up, one who will arise to rule over the nations; the Gentiles will hope in him."

A Little Lady in the Lavender Patch.

Not quite my little lady that I made from paverpol, but this is our little lady in the lavender patch.

Love My Coffee Machine!

Need I say more?

Cages.

I found these bird cages on kerbside cleanout. I hope to put pots of cherry tomatoes and herbs inside them and place them on the deck; close to the kitchen. The cage will hopefully stop Noddy the cat from digging and nibbling at the plants.

Da Hoop.

Oh the boys that we had over here for 'almost 12 year old son's' birthday gathering on Saturday, loved shooting hoops. A different day here today; pouring rain. I am pleased for the respite from the heat and humidity of the weekend.

Our Zoo Went to Their Zoo.

The Groovy Aunt gave us a gift voucher (last Christmas) to go to the Australian Wildlife Park and the Aquarium.

11 year old son took the following photo's.



Unfortunately the above Red Back Spider is to be found in our garden!


Baby crocs hatching.....



School Trivia Night.

The school trivia night; a Halloween theme of course, but we thought that we would think outside the square.
Note the eyeball and coffin chocolates.




We were Mary Poppins and Bert the Chimney Sweep.
