To celebrate my birthday Peter showed us the way to the lengendary Woodford Pool, also known as Paradise Beach. It is located in a little crook of the creek south of Woodford Dam.

I got tired of cheap scapulars falling apart. I started looking up how to make your own. The Catholic Encylopedia has an article on Scapulars which says: The material of these two essential parts of the scapular must be of woven wool; the strings or bands may be of any material, and of any one colour.

Most of us went to Melbourne again. I went to a breastfeeding conference with another breastfeeding enthusiast. The rest of the crew did various touristy things.

As if we didn’t already have enough cute going on around here. Elizabeth Boys bought two guinea pigs from our local homeschool market day. Two guinea pigs One we call Snowball or Lily.

We did the Christus Rex Pilgrimage! And I am hopeless at taking good photos. And we stayed in an old house, without electricity, it was the best.

In February we embarked on a spontaneous Melbourne holiday and Public Transport Extravaganza thanks to CountryLink and my sister who lives there. There may have been elements of City Mouse/Country Mouse, but overall came off okay with no injuries and lots of fond memories.
