Autumn Colours and Happy Kids!

Today was warm! Warm enough for the goats and sheep to fight for who got the best spot in the shade!
The colours around us at the moment are just stunning. The Willows are going yellow, the Wattles behind are bluey grey and the gums behind them are the true eucalyptus green. Throw in the darker splash of the Blackwoods to their right and it adds up to an amazing work of nature's art in front of our eyes every day.
The Toze kids are having  a ball! Little Nick here is now renamed 'Farmer Nick' and every opportunity he is under the trees, patting the sheep and goats and talking to the cows. They seem to listen to him too!
Hetty just LOVES Lilli. It's a rare moment when poor Lil isn't being carted around in her arms! Amazingly she doesn't seem to mind much at all!
As it was a warm night we lit a (small!) bonfire in the paddock and roasted marshmallows in the coals.
Great memories for kids!
And us oldies too!
