Provence

I wish it really were Provence - but hey I have to work with what I've got. I can dream can't I?
This is a little dirt road near to my place - I've taken so many photos at this spot it isn't funny - all my rainbow and pink balloon photos with the girls were taken here. It's literally a few minutes from my place so when I realise photos of my kiddos have been neglected I grab the gear and head off.

The Finish Line

I just wanted to send out a huge thank you to all those people who generously sponsored the Boonah Babes and I in our recent triathlon.

I would have posted earlier but I've been exhausted!!

As I mentioned in earlier posts - I'm really not sporty and completing this has been such a huge event in my life (once again big hugs to Liz for motivating me).

The girls and I raised over a thousand dollars and currently we are the 1oth highest fund raiser team - you can still donate by visiting this site http://www.everydayhero.com.au/ElizabethFearon

Help keep us in the top 10!!!

The event so far has raised over 90 000 - which is really really wonderful - I am so pleased to be a part of this event. We've all said we will do it again which is even better.

Luke was telling me the other day about a show he saw and how science has discovered that we are at our happiest when giving something to others and honestly by putting myself out there to do something for others I have gained so much in return. Good intentions to live a more healthy lifestyle have never come to fruition until now and participating in this event has given me an active lifestyle that I wouldn't even have dreamed of each year when I made my New Years Resolutions. So I think it's true - doing something for others brings much happiness and gifts that you never dreamed of!!

Okay and now I am sharing the photos - and for my part it's not pretty!!


This is us crossing the finish line - we did it in under an hour!!

And here we are with our medals - I have no idea why my face is looking like that but I thought Luke got another where I didn't look so hideous! Oh and I accidentally deleted the ones of us in our swimmers - seriously it was an accident!
Hopefully Boonah Babes with be bigger and better next year!!
Gosh - I am super short aren't I?????

Ami & Arif are getting married!

The countdown is on for Ami & Arif's wedding. A few weeks back we headed out to capture them as an engaged couple.
We had a lot fun and drew quite a few stares while hanging out on a little bridge in the little town where their wedding is going to take place. We also saw a Red Belly Black snake which wasn't so much fun - it made me a little nervous and I was lothe to ask them to sit down on the grass after that.
It was a gorgeous glowy sunset that afternoon and we got some gorgeous back lit images.

Here they are guys I hope you love these images as much as I do!!!

Sam's






These kiddos belong to Sam. Sam is a special person in my life so it was an honour to capture her kiddos. Sam is our daycare mamma - she looks after Ava for me a few days a week so that I can take photos for other people. This time it was Sam's turn.

Sam is the best daycare mamma - Ava loves her to bits and it makes all our lives that much happier when we know we can get on with stuff while Ava is having a blast with Sam.

Thank you Sam!!

Hope you likie.......

Tallulah

Meet the newest addition of the Higgins family!!

All year we have been planning and scheming to get the girls a puppy for Christmas - we had it all worked out and then along came this little girl and we decided to leap in head first and take her home.


She is darling and the girls have played with her all afternoon. Okay - so we've not done the first night yet - but how sweet is she???? Mary-Ella has been wanting a dog for the longest longest time and she is over the moon.

Ava is pretty thrilled too - can you tell by that cheesy grubby grin???

Well there are bound to be many more photos of Tallulah - my work will be cut out for me as she moves so fast.....until next time....

Triathlon Pink

So a few months back I mentioned Triathlon Pink.

Some of you may have wondered if I managed to keep my commitment to participate in the charity event despite my history of being unsporty and well ....dare I say it ....lazy.

Well I am happy to let you know the event is only10 days away and yes I am participating.

For months we have been working on the cycle and run legs but we had no access to a swimming pool during the winter months as our small town does not have an indoor heated pool - well the pool reopened and for the first time we put the three legs together - 300m swim, 9km cycle and 3km run and yes I did manage to complete it.........I will admit to needing to walk part of the run - it was hot and I was tired.....but I now know that I can and will cross that finish line come Sunday the 12th.

I'm really excited about the event and I have to send a big shout out to Liz who convinced me that being in a triathlon was a suitable activity for a computer geek like me. I really feel that I have accomplished a major change in my life and fitness level and if Liz hadn't sold the idea to me I would never have even considered such a crazy idea - so thanks Liz - although you do need a smack for the pink tutus (don't ask!!!).

At any rate - wish us luck .......and it wouldn't be a post without a pic so here is my Kitty....
