Everything is dying.
However, everything looks so pretty because it drizzled overnight. Not much, but enough to make it smell amazing and make me want to take photos. The green patch you can see? That is where my grey water run off is.
Everything is still grey and chilly. You’d never believe it is the middle of summer. I am loving it.
Amy has new gumboots. She thinks they are fantastic. Thankyou Mum.
She does love the shoes.
The apples on my apple tree were still wet from the drizzle. I have been watering them with the bath water so that they didn’t die. Hopefully we can get some ripe fruit before we move out of here, I would hate to have the possums eat the apples.
I had to throw this one in here. You know you’re jealous right? He also cleans the bathroom and he does all the mopping. I love him and no! you can’t have him.

Um, I’m green with envy over here. My hubby, though I love him dearly, is L.A.Z.Y.
But he’s really good in bed… 😉

You told him that seeing a man do domestic chores made you hot, didn’t you? It worked for me on 2 husbands.

aww.
neat pics..
My hubby also does my dishes, he says I’ve worked hard all morning so I should rest when I get home. He walks me to work in the dark before dawn (I do the opening shift) and washes up before I get home. Unfortunately it takes him ALL morning, as he gets halfway through, gets fed up and takes a smoke break, then he finishes washing up, takes a smoke/coffee break, then he’s HAD ENOUGH, so he leaves the kitchen. I dry and put away after I get home. It would be so much simpler for me to do them the night before, for me it’s a 10 minute job. Love Amy in the pink boots.
I can’t believe how dry it is there! Is it always like that in summer?

Great photos — the rain on the apple is beautiful. I hope the possums don’t get them!
My daughter had bright yellow rain boots when she was Amy’s age. She used to sneak outside wearing nothing but those boots…I would get a phone call or a knock at the back door, informing me my nakie daughter was on the loose again. She always put on the boots, though. I guess she didn’t like being outside barefoot. Bare butt, no problem.

I like the apple shot, I now have the craving for some apple pie! My husband believes that the kitchen is his domain – so it’s the one area that I don’t clean, and I’m ok with that!

I love it when men do things around the house.
Nathan absolutely loves cooking and wont even let me have a turn! I come home to a house full of nice smells after work. There is a catch though, I clean up afterwards.

Jeanette’s last blog post..Weekly Winners
I LOVE THOSE PINK BOOTS!!!! OMG, I would wear those if I could find them in my size!!!! And my daughter is also obsessed with shoes. We have to hide her cowboy boots and her snow boots or she will insist on wearing them to BED! 🙂
Marlee’s last blog post..Jackass Quote of the Week
Oh, good job at getting the man that already does those things. It’s taken John AGES to finally get trained properly. 😉
And I am constantly laughing at the weird coincidences with our kids. I JUST bought Braden some rubber rain boots like the ones Amy has (different color, though). And we have the same shoe scene! Right by the back door, in the kitchen, all of our shoes are lined up. Everyday, several times, he drags them all out, and then I put them all back. Fun times!
And. The appled picture is GREAT! 🙂

OK, some part of me knew it was summer on the other side of the world, but if you had asked me 5 minutes ago, I would not have won the Final Jeopardy question. That is SO COOL.
