Randomness inspired by Lizzy, And a Conversation.

Erin: As you might know Lizzy is staying over for a few days, so we are having random talks about boiling men's brains, Inside out belly butten's and silliness in general. That's not the whole of it, but some of the weird things that have been said.

LizzyMostly its been decidedly strange with a touch of treachery.

Erin: Beware if you know Lizzy, she may have said something about you! lol
Mostly good, hopefully.... maybe

Lizzy: I have come to defend this noble cause of my consciousness, stateing my innocence in the clearest of terms.

Erin: But can she prove that she is innocent? Shall we ask her?

Lizzy:Perhaps not with tangible, solid proof. However my conscious is clear, and perhaps I have prayed for you instead. Maybe that is scarier. As Stephen said, if you prayed for people more often than you thought about them, more would get done. Entirely noble, however, somewhat impractical, trying to remember. Shall try

Erin: That should be enough proof for now, I hope. If you you belive her. ;) I belive her.
Now for a change...

Lizzy: Perhaps the motto, not particuarly wise, but decidedly interesting as stated by Luke; "Close your eyes and hope for the best, however not while driving," Interesting and worthy of random giggles. If you understand the female mind, which brings me to the worthy thought of men's brains.

Erin: yes, well, they are confussing at first, but we are trying to understand them. Failing that, someone thought it would be good to eat them. Why??

Lizzy: Not sure I would like to eat them. I personally do not like brains, though maybe it would increase your IQ????

Erin: prehapes.... maybe... I don't think so though. Maybe it would depend on the brain?

Lizzy: Now we are deciding if it is even remotely wise to try and publish this or just send it to some poor individual. hmmm.

Erin: Or just stop now, and use the excuse of being over tired??

Lizzy: Ah yes, goodbye from the two mad giggling professing wafflelators.

Erin: Till next time, this is (see above)

The Christmas season and the weeks since had flown by, and I let this blog fall silent for a while without even realising it. Many Blessings came to us this Christmas.
There is one I like to show you. Our new foal, Stella was born on Boxing day.

Here she is having a nap.

Another reason of even greater joy, is the news that My mother has now shared, so I am very, very happy to say, that come July I shall have a new little brother or sister! :)

Lastly I'd like to wish everyone a happy new year, I know its a bit belated but the year is still in its baby stages. May God Bless you all this year, and may you all grow in him even more.

Frying Pan's Theology

Snowflakes are falling
Gentle and slow,
Yougster say "Frying Pan
What makes it snow?"

Frying Pan, confident
Makes the reply-
"shake 'im big flour bag
Up in the sky"

"What! when there's miles of it?
Surely thats brag.
Who is there stong enough
Ahake such a bag?

"What parson tellin' you
Old mister Dodd,
Tell you in sunday-school?
Big pfeller God!

Him dive 'im bullock dray
Then thunder go;
Him shake 'im flour bag-
Tumble down snow!"

A belated post.

With a lot of things being done this past month, I haven't done much posting, so here's a quick update.



At the beginning of September, we had our annul Catholic Homeschoolers camp. (See the post below)
A friend had a birthday party not long after.
Then I went down to Sydney to see my sister, Sonja, and go to another friends birthday dress up/bush dance party.



Me in my dress.


When I came home Sonja came back with me for a week long holiday, the kids were all very sad when she had to leave again, but cheered up a little when she told them she'd be back home for Christmas.

Before she left, she was tied up with some plastic stuff that was wrapped around our new guttering's. You can see the ladders in this photo with Dad and one of my brothers working at putting it up.



Last week, we went to the beach to catch up with some friends. While the younger children all stayed up at the park, most the teens went for a walk along the beach.






We walked along that stretch of sand to climb up this small hill. I just love the view!





Part of the slope we climbed, and the rocks down below.

Thankfully I don't have anything else at the moment happening. So I think I shall get to work on my mold making and other things I've dropped.

We were meant to be having a bonfire tonight, but the rain put a end to that. Now we just hope the sun will come out and dry the wood so that next Friday we can have a fire.

After Mass today, My brother and his friends were talking, and for some reason, Josh started climbing the wall, (outside the church ofcourse!) to where there is a place for a statue, but it was empty, well not anymore. It has a Joshua the Great there. ;)

For all of you who were wondering, we found out the bat is a Gould's long-eared bat.

This is indead a very short, random post. I hope you'l forgive my lack of writing tonight.

First post!

So I've at long last gone and made a blog.
As the name implies, Its fate may be a awful bunch of rather strange posts. But I'll try to make it as interesting as possible.
The main reason I thought a blog would be a good idea was for those times when I would like to write rather strange, long, or just plain everyday thoughts. Perhaps I will write something worthy of reading every now and then, but I won't make any promises.
