Cora was pleased to have her friends back to play with, so we're the bunnies and guineapigs. Scoobie, Horse and Lucy all enjoyed attention with a brush, hay and canvas covers on for our chilly night. A bit of art, some stories read and counting games with buttons, hay slices and toys. We picked tomatoes and lettuce from the garden and made a sandwich too. Nom nom.

Scoobie and Cora watched us reel in the fencing and pack away the pickets after they did a good job mowing the paddock. We fed pets and cleaned runs too. We found a tomato in the garden, painted our fairy house and played some games too. Awesomeness.

Having fun with the Zuzu pets meant changing out their old batteries before chasing them around the room! Puzzles challenged out spatial awareness, looking after each other was captured in the fairy garden. All pets fed and some cuddled. Lemonade made and enjoyed before some serious digging begun. A busy day at Trickle Creek.

We shared in a fabulous 7th birthday today, but the most special part (other than the amazing cake) was the lovely feedback and photos.
Hi Louise,
Thank you so much for B’s party today! We all had such a ball and appreciate everything you and Peter did for us. Everyone was buzzing. The perfect party for our 7 year old!
Thanks again,
J and T

All the pets were happy as our new hay arrived. We had fun making hideaways in boxes and paperbags with it . We gave the play toys a spruce up with loads of bubbles and collected mushrooms after playing in the creek.

The old trainset came out today, we built tracks, platforms, bridges, tunnel and a turn stile, we took turns and played train crashes and rescues. Next onto blowing bubbles for Shadow to chase, pet feeding and water trough filling. Fresh lemonade to revive us in the heat of the day before clearing the paddock from prickles and p**p. Such a busy day.

Weekend parties, Saturday outing to Khandallah and today's here at Trickle Creek. Both super fun. The Elsa cake even sang while the cake was being cut, very clever.

Such fun making new friends and caring for the pets. Flying kites, playing the ukulele, climbing hills, and so much more. Fun, fun, fun.

Such a gorgeous day filled with so much kindness and fun. The animals were fed from the garden, the kids enjoyed a surprise gift of donuts, and sushi and bubble tea for me too! Scoobie had a bath, loads of clever art made from corks, horse riding and kite flying. Thank you to all the kind people who gave making our day so much fun. We appreciate you.

Had a great helper or two today, we reset the electric fencing, pulled beetroot from the garden (which was a save as Scoobie Doo helped with all the weeding that included but not limited to the celery, spinach, lettuces, rose bush and grape vine, will add that to his resume).
We thanked him by clearing his paddock of manure.
We played board games and made a kite to fly to relax.
