Hello and welcome.

I thought it was time for a catch up with what we have been doing...

We have been busy having a good clean up in the sheds. It is a good place to stay dry and warm yet still be productive. This area I have cleaned up to make into a studio for myself. A beautiful sunny spot looking out to the vege garden. I have put the till in here to remind me of the days it was our shop..

The succulents are loving the sun and dry from the rain as well.

I do share the space with William but I am not going to show you that side..It is his hobby room as well and his hobby is gel guns...say no more he is a boy...

After all that cleaning we deceided we better have a garage sale, we had that last weekend.

I still had so much left from the shop....Yarn O my so much yarn, any way 

now we have nice clean sheds..

Such a great entertaining area with our size family. 

Still hard to believe this was our shop, and yes I do still miss it, but times change and move on.

Even with the cold weather there is new life on the farm,

We have twins Dick and Dora

Bruce thought they were great names hahaha

We lost 1 lamb due to the cold while we were out at Cassie's which is such a shame and so sad.

 We have so much happening in the vege garden as well.

Our first tomatoes are coming along nicely...

 

Zucchinis have kept us going all winter, along with the carrots and beetroot.

Despite the winds and frosts and cold the vege garden has done so well...

I will have to do a post just on the vege garden next time...

Until then

Keep warm

Garage Sale Finds....

How is week-end shaping up??

I had the best Saturday in a very long time, Will and I went hunting at the garage sales.

Ta Da

I have often heard the men say "Real men have Ute's"

Well

I think then that real women have Tarago's....The things I fit in here is amazing.The back seat was full,I got an old trunk for $15 and so much china, and then I got this cabinet for only $30 and couldn't leave it there for that price. Up went the other seat and in she went....

I love my car..

I also got this lamp. OK she looks bad here but look at the base, it is glass. I have often seen these on blogs but never found one for myself.

and the china...All of this for $15. It has been years since I have gotten to Garage sales so I may be a little excited OK..Just humor me PLEASE..

 A new shade on my lamp and she is looking better, still not 100% happy I think it needs a smaller shade. Another shot of the chinna, the green striped bowls and plates are part of a dinner set. When I asked the fellow how much he said (this is some of Dads old china how about $5) I causally said thats OK I supose...$5 can you beleive it..The floral plate and other green plate was $2 each.

 Now the travelling trunk, the elderly lady said here Grandfather come out from Scotland with this trunk. My grandfather also came out from Scotland may-be my Pop had a trunk like this too. I'm sure it wasn't yellow though!! He makes a lovely coffee table on the veranda for now. I want to fit it into the boys room as a toy box.

Below is my cupboard for $30 it to has gone on the veranda as I have no room in the house.

Yes I had a wonderfull day Saturday. 

Today Damien and I are going to look at some chooks. Rare bred ones so all in all this has been one of the best weekends ever...

What have you been up to?????

Blessings
