Lyndon Station {Working}

We stopped at Towera to help with the busy bee for Winning Bush Gymkarnon our way.  It was lovely to catch up with those that we had yet to see since we arrived in the area, even if I did get covered in red dust while doing so.

Next stop was Lyndon and to say that the kids were excited was an understatement.  We pulled in, the smalls disappeared and we set about setting up in our normal spot.  Cath & Sean had some friends stopping in for a visit so we rushed around, packed a picnic and headed to the lake for a picnic.

This was a spot we hadn't been on Lyndon before and to say that it was amazing is an understatement.  It was breathtaking and I can't wait to head back for yet another sunset, hopefully seeing it a little earlier this time.

 

 

 

 

 

A fire, singing, exploring, running around, chatting and some food made for a perfect evening.  With tired children we all packed up cars and headed home.  J made breakfast for us all in the morning, pancakes and we had a relaxing morning hanging out with everyone.  Em & I made up a massive number of sandwiches and it was off for another picnic.

Another day, another picnic and another new location.  We headed to a dam, which had wetlands surrounding it.  It was a beautiful spot to explore, lay down a picnic blanket, read a book and let the children get covered from head to toe in MUD!

 

 

 

I got so many wonderful pictures over the last two days, it was really hard to cull them down and the cute adorable Saphie managed to shine in front of the camera.  Darn that small person is cute.

Sunday passed and it was time to head back to school for our last week of term.  Finalising everything, finishing what was left and waiting till Friday arrived before we take a much needed two weeks off.

 

 

With Winning just around the corner it was time to start getting the Lyndon small people ready for their events.  Kaleb was in heaven as Sean had recently brought a '50' motorbike. So we had afternoons of bike riding and horse riding, perfect for making all the children tired.  They really did have a wonderful time.

 

 

 

All of this was happening while J was working through his list of jobs and also finding time to source a motorbike for Kaleb.  After all this time I finally lost out and we, through much begging and calling in of favours we got a bike picked up from one place, delivered to two others before coming up on a ute to the station.  We even managed to get a helmet!

 

How could I forget Lyndon had a new addition of an adorable puppy dog and a handful of calves up in the yard.  Everywhere you look new life, beautiful.

 

Mad preparations for the children's party at Winning followed for the next few days and I don't even remember picking up my camera. Before we knew it, Friday had arrived again and it was time to pack down for our weekend of excitement.

Winning here we come!
