500 acres of freedom

We've just come back from another excellent weekend at the farm. Further signs of the children growing up is that we didn't have to break up a single fight this weekend and on 2 occasions, when we decided to go searching for the kids becausewe hadn't seen them for a very long time, we needed to take the car/quad bike because of the distance they had gone - they are getting brave and adventurous.

Food was, of course, a top priority for the weekend and Julia made amazing pita breads from scratch which I shall be attempting often this summer. Jules demonstrated beautifully the side affects of eating all that food........!

Because the big boys stole the kids home-made go-cart last time I found a proper one (with a brake!) which Tom in particular enjoyed riding but most of the time the kids were happy roaming around, going on bush walks, finding stick guns, riding their bikes and enjoying all that freedom.
