Sleep Over At Gram and Gramps



I had my grand daughter over night last night. Adorable. Fun. She slept well but I get up so often to check on her. Very different than having your own.

She loves playing with Grammy's tupperware.

Look at these big blue eyes.

I picked up this odd piece of fabric at the second hand shop for a dollar. Yep $1.00 and I had some old stuffing at home. One is actually filled with some wadding I had laying around. Cool Hey.

Just some photos from the recent floods in Maryborough. These were taken in Tiaro on the Mary River.

You can see that the water had come up a lot higher. It can go a lot higher than this. Under that water is a bridge. They already fixed it up once this year. Three months the road was blocked to the othr side of town. Patch up job worth a million. All washed away again. Really needs a new and higher bridge. I am glad that I do not live on the other side.



This log was washed from the creek onto our place. We have a small creek at the bottom of our property and it was over 100m wide when it was in full flood.

  1. How wonderful to have your grand daughter for the whole night. My children have been staying with grand parents for sleepovers for years and love it. It was actually really handy when i went to have my second child as I knew the eldest would be at his second home with my parents. It made me feel much more relaxed.
    The photos of the floods are amazing. I cannot even imagine what it would be like.

  2. We were safe from the floods - even if a little cut of - very hard for so many people.

    I will have my grand daughter over night once a month at the moment - give her Mum and Dad a chance to do something together and sleep in. I remember so badly just wanting to sleep.

    Cheers,
    Wendy
