point + shoot: newly engaged

This weekend there was much champagne flute clinking, diamond admiring and a spread of bridal magazines at my house. We had not one, not two, but THREE rounds of visitors here at Ythanbrae...basically my weekend consisted of the following:

- 'flying' visit from Dad (literally)
- mmm yummy pub lunch in beer garden = sunburn
- amazing friends visit from the Mallee - yippee! Need to see them MORE, too bad we will soon be 5 hour drive away = sadness
- mmm yummy farm fresh lamb roast dinner
- firedrum on the lawn with champagne to toast marital bliss, hurruh!
- farm tour on back of the ute = more sunburn
- mmm omelettes for breakfast
- broken suction in dam = boys spending an hour with ropes/rocks/branches trying to fix it, no luck
- Mr M almost being skittled by PSYCHO cow with mastitis, I seriously had 000 at the ready. I see/get fair share of grumpy bovines (mainly bulls) that have to jump up on the rails occassionally in the yards, but this was something else, seriously psycho
- Mum and my sister Louise at Ythanbrae = sister back in Australia! Hurruh!
- copious beer and champagne drinking on the deck amid wedding planning, barbequeing and sunset admiring
- game of Rummikub to keep the man happy

That's all.
