On the farm part 10

Pip and Rusty's family


Thomas and Elijah at their favourite hangout - the mud hole

Enjoying a rare patch of sunshine


and a cuddle from Pop (not so rare!)


Some of us got in this photo, some didn't. Oh well!

On the farm part 9





We managed to coax our fat little pony Melody out of the paddock and hitch her up for pony rides. Ella was a natural and wasn't phased at all, but Elijah was a little hesitant!

Tree Top Walk with Thomas





Elijah went on a special outing with Aunty Pip and Thomas to the Tree Top Walk. It looks like they enjoyed themselves!

I got stuck in this little stream and water gushed over the top of my boots. I was so cold and a bit frightened!

Ella loves to pretend she's driving


It was so much fun riding on the front of the motorbike with Thomas. Aunty Pip drove very safely for us.

On the farm part 6

We're off to help Hesse in the avocado orchard!

Ella and I are such great helpers



Devery doesn't have to help, she just gets to play with Hesse whenever she wants

I love being in Hesse's garden



I really am having fun here in the trailer with Thomas, but I was worried about Aunty Prue dumping weeds on us!


Here's me chilling out with Aunty Prue on the steps


I held onto Thomas so tightly on the motorbike


In the golf cart with Pop
