A Break From Life

I just came back from an awesome holiday in our caravan with my family.


I collected pretty shells to make mobiles with, read my latest Peppermint mag,


got ash coloured feet, made leaf art,


explored shops at a few small towns, plaited reeds to wear as a headband,

~also featuring a headdress my dad made from ferns  :) ~

drew cool things in the sand with some kids, collected smooth rocks to paint,


designed some children's t-shirts, went to the beach after dark to see the amazing, bright stars, 


 survived without my big camera {yes, all these are from my point and shoot!}, played with my sisters,


gathered 'round a fire one night and had a music jam with two other families, climbed on rocks,


bought a blanket for my babies-to-be (hehe), braided little girls' hair, did some cool drawings,


annoyed the above sister by making her laugh when she wanted to sleep (we shared a bed), watched lots of lightning {survived two massive thunderstorms that went for hours},


watched a spider weave it's web (so amazing!), camped at places for free,


stayed at a place for a while with no power and no showers, 
watched sunsets that reflected in the river, 


and found a cute little garden with this 'Talking Circle' in it!! I want one in my backyard when I get my own house!


and went to this gorgeous place for Christmas day!!

The Blue Pool, Victoria, Australia



Beautiful rocks everywhere!!

My family, minus my brother, Jem, who's staying with his lady friend, Junita, in Western Australia  :)

I had such a wonderful time- I just love love LOVE nature!! And living in it  :)

A Sunny Place Where I Don't Live



Hello people! I write to you from Adelaide, in South Australia.
In case you don't remember, I am here visiting my friend Sonja from Butterfly Kisses.
I've had a wonderful time just chilling out and want to share some of what we've done...

baked chocolate chip cookies
taken clever pictures



made cute, little hair accessories
rode in a glass elevator (seven stories high!)


caught the tram to the beach
and took a hundred photos of each other










explored the museum
and Sonja made a pretty wrap in my hair



made hearts out of leaves
prettied up our ankles with henna


made old ladies on the tram laugh at us by making silly faces
kissed things we probably shouldn't have


hung cds on the chandelier
and I got black feet from wearing no shoes




got some amazing bargains at a scrapbook supplies shop
posed in ivy


walked on the tram tracks (what a rebel)
photographed seagulls

{haha- I LOVE this edit!!!}

window shopped down Rundle Mall
blowed sand





cooked tea every night
and Sonja made my eyes sparkly



put pink in our hair
and found pretty poles
