A man, a boy, a bike and 3 dogs...

Pa couldn't wait to get H out on the bike last weekend. It was one of the funniest and cutest sites... H grinning and taking it all in, Pa holding on to H and steering and 3 Kelpies packed on the back... not wanting to miss any action. It was quite a sight and I'm not sure who loved it more.... H, Pa or the dogs...

I love the hands on the handle bars in the last photo - all ready to take charge!! (he wishes!!)

Once he found the horn it was on for young and old and every time he honked it the dogs would all bark their heads off... it was quite the sight and sound...

By the end of the ride there was quite the crowd on the hill... Me, N, MaMa, Pa, H, Aunty G, 2 lambs, 3 dogs and a cat!! Just your average Saturday on the farm...

My Dad...

I am blessed in life to have such a wonderful Father...

My Dad...is a wonderful role model...because of him I knew what qualities to look for in my Husband and the qualities I hope to impart on my Son.

My Dad...is wonderful, kind, supportive, compassionate, patient, slow to anger, loving, not afraid to show affection, understanding, a great confidant, smart, a people person, professional, a perfectionist, successful, a man's man, a snazzy dancer and loves a good party. He has an unbelievable work ethic and a terrific thirst for knowledge...

My Dad...always told us...if a job's worth doing...it's worth doing well!

My Dad (and Mum too)...have sacrificed so many things for themselves to ensure we (my sister and me) need and want for nothing. They have worked their tails off so they could give us the best in life.

My Dad...has allowed me to make mistakes so I could learn from them and has always been there to help me through the good and the bad. He has driven hundreds and hundreds of kilometres taking us to school and back, taken us to country parties, moved us from house to house (so many times between my sister and me I hate to think)...

My Dad and little Sis

My Dad...agreed to give my hand in marriage to my wonderful Husband...whom I would be lost without. Dad recognised my love for N and his for me and support us through everything we do together as a couple. In his beautiful and moving speech at our Wedding he gave us some words of wisdom...those words were..."There are books written on marriage, but it is very hard to give advice, as each person is an individual with a unique personality. The only thing I know is, that like a business, you have to work hard at making a marriage work. There will be times of great joy and sadness, but like any relationship there are give and take rules. Above all, be loyal, love, respect and give space to each other"...

My Dad...is a wonderful, doting Grandfather. When I gave birth to my Son I was most excited to ring Dad to tell him he finally has a Jackaroo. I look forward to all the fun times and little gems of wisdom he will pass on to his Grandson...

My Dad...is a remarkable man. I struck it lucky to get him as my Father, my mentor and my first Hero.

Dad...I love you... Jx

Just like Pa...

I love looking at this photo of H with my Dad...


The caption of this photo should read...'I'm doing this just like you Pa'

My heart completely melts watching my Dad with H. He is an amazing Grandfather and adores his little 'Jackaroo'.
