21 !!! And just a little help....

Hello - Hello

Boy!!!, have we been busy this week!!! Preparing for the wedding this coming weekend - an ongoing project 'till the very last minutes on Saturday I am sure, a 21st Birthday and the final year end exams!!!
But there's been very welcome and time saving help as well!!! Help that came unexpectedly and brought many ooh's and aah's and a few relaxing moments with a well deserved cup of coffee in hand while watching them "mow" the lawn!!! 
First there was one....

Then two....

And finally there were three....

Beautiful Nyala cows!!! In broad daylight!!! They didn't seem to be worried by us at all and after about 2 hours, when the lawn was neatly "mowed" and they had a good drink from the dogs water bowl  they simply jumped over the wall again and moved on!!!! Aaaaahhhhh!!!! So cute, isn't it??!!!! Love it!!!
One job ticked off  hubby's list of things to do!!!
Then there was a big birthday!!! Yesterday my youngest turned 21!!!! Oh where has the time gone??!!!! I remember the day she was born like it was just yesterday!!!!! A Guy Fawkes baby!!! And really there were fireworks going off everywhere!!!

Happy Birthday Jess, 21!!!! Already??!!!!!!

She had a very quiet day.....studying!!!!! Yes it's that time again!!! Year-end finals!!!! And even worse, she wrote TWO subjects the day after her birthday!!! She wanted no distractions with cake and crowds but there will definitely be celebrations after the exams!!!
She really has a terrible exam roster!!! 2 subjects on the 6th Nov, then one on the 12th Nov, one on the 14 and one on the 15th Nov!!! So for the next week and a bit we'll be driving 80km in and 80km back, mostly late afternoons!!! Then, she'll be done with her 2nd year and maybe she can have a little break!!!
I have to go now but let me leave you with this beautiful sunset from last night!!! It looked so promising for rain but sadly there was none!!!
But before I go, a very big Thank You to all my readers for the kind messages and welcomings left on my last post!!! I really do appreciate your interest!!!
Love
AMarie

  1. Happy birthday to your daughter! Those cows are really interesting, they are so unlike the cows I know.
