~ stills {from home again} ~

 

1.  The heart of our home.  The monthly wall calendar still has April's appointments - I'll get to August soon.

2.  The mural on the school sport's pavillion - Lily completed her part before we left - and lots has been added since.  Above her animal (not a rat as I keep calling it) is the motto...size doesn't matter - its so perfect for her.

3.  After school drop-off I often walk along the river to the beach - this is my view.

4.  The Doc fell in love with espresso for breakfast - he bought us a pod coffee machine this week.  He makes a good cup.

5.  The view of kunanyi (Mt Wellington) from our back deck - hard to believe it's winter.

6.  The littlest one had his first ever game of school soccer yesterday - he was so happy - and he scored a goal!

7.  Foraged wintery pieces for our bookcase.



We've been home a week.  I've unpacked (nearly) everything although it hasn't all made it through the washing machine yet.

We are slowly re-adjusting our body clocks, our routines, our clothing choices ... everything really.

The days have been chilly but clear and beautiful - it's  easy to remember why we chose here to make our home.


I'm joining in with the weekly stills collection at The Beetleshack
