A while back we brought 2 shade sails from Aldi, cause you can get everything from Aldi....., we were going to put them up beside the house in the back yard to cover the play area, but the problem was that Caitie could not go out there on her own cause of the dogs and there was no where for us to sit and watch her. So we decided to move all the things around the front and hang the sails from the verandah to the big gum trees in the middle of the yard.
Caitlyn with her house, her car and her bike!!!!! ooohhh she is daddy's girl

We now have a play area that is shaded, it keeps the things cleaner and it is a great place for me to sit and do work or read at the picnic table while Caitie plays and Pip sleeps. The trampoline net is all fixed now to, after the big wind storm that blew it under the verandah and ripped the net. After a long afternoon of me sewing it back together with Fishing line, she can play on it again without falling off.
We have been doing chalk drawings on the drive way of our family, Daddy, Mummy, Caitie, Pipi, Harley, Miss Daisy, Grandma Werlie (Verlie) and Special Grandma Ann (who has her own set of angel wings). Also I found the window chalk from last years show bags, so that has been lots of fun on the front window.

Pip also enjoys the swing and slide when she is awake and comes out to play.
