Another wet day

The rain hasn't stopped. We've had 60mm of rain (240 points) . It is needed though, so were not complaining (yet). So not much was done today, been up to the yards and weighed lambs that are going to the works on Monday, and will crutch them tomorrow morning, yayyy. Now for some photos to share.
This little machine is to be blamed for our early morning wake up call. It went constantly, not like when you get a flat battery or anything, like when you get a bug in it and it shorts out, and I can't get the little blighter out, so out came the battery at 3am.here is our breakfast cereals. There is only four as Jake decided he was going to have porridge with me
Morning tea, Lionel and his favourite cup :)
Jake with his Flo. When ever Jake or Flo come inside they seek each other out for a cuddle before they go and do what they were going to do.

I went for a walk outside (while it was pouring down), I was hoping to get a photo of Jake and Lionel coming back from being out shifting sheep on their dirty bikes and soaked, but they went and did another job and I wasn't hanging around outside LOL. This is a old bike that we worked out to be 30 odd years old that Jake found in the gully not far from the house. He put it in his garden and I must admit, I love it :)This is a puddle out the front and look at the rain drops. The drain isn't working 100% yet. :)Here is some photos of our school camp (camped at school and went for a bike ride and visited the local firestation). Abby dressed up in Darrens firefighting gear.Swinging off the back of the fire engine. Abby thought if there was a fire then the firemen have to hold onto the back of engine and fly behind by holding on :)

That's a decent amount of rain, Bronnie. We had about the same on Friday, which is a huge difference compared to this time last year, when we were experiencing our worst drought on record.

Aha, so you are a porridge girl too!

Love all the shots here and the old bike looks really cool in your garden. :)
