The children spread out and play with new-old toys, outside the house, and the snowy mountains.

A place of our own ( well kind of)
We are here!!!! Finally! Well we've been here a week but they only connected our phone line today, so I couldn't communicate till now! And it snowed on the mountains close by us last night! Our move into our home ( a converted woolshed) seems to have coincided with the arrival of winter, which is great as I have been looking forward to a Dovedale winter for a while. We feel like we've come home. ( we lived in the house next door when I had Maaike, she tells everyone she was born there, in the kitchen. it snowed in our valley that night too). The kind of? Well we don't own it. But we can stay as long as we like and we can use the land ( about an acre?) as we like.
I have forgotten how slow dial up can be, and how many photos our digital camera can store.Expect some retrospective shots over coming weeks, he he. And now some pictures.

How lovely for the kids to have all their old stuff back to play with. Looks like you've got a really pretty view and some nice natural light in your house.
ReplyDeleteBoy it's cold now the snow's here isn't it?!!
Congratulations Mel. It looks like such a cool place. I'm off down to arthurs pass on Friday to visit my partner who is building there at the moment, Snow for the past 2 days! I've never been in plane so I'm quite excited! All the best with your new house xx
ReplyDeleteOh it looks cosy and warm! Where abouts in Dovedale are you? Mum and Dad have a farm in Dovedale, just next to the place with all the old cars!
ReplyDeleteIt must be so nice to be settled again! Can't wait to come visit....
