Reflecting

 

 

Follow along on my Captured by Cristina Rose page (all prints are available to order or why not book a photo shoot when you come over, they are as cheap as chips).

You can see what other Norfolk Island images people are posting on the weekly challenge on the Norfolk Island Tourism's facebook page or type in #norfolkislandpic to the search bar. ☺

TRADITION

~Week 12~

Tradition

 

One of the biggest ‪#‎traditions‬ here on ‪#‎Norfolkisland‬ is learning to swim to the raft (and jumping off it).
Here is my collage when my son wanted to swim out at sunset a few months ago.

This was Teddy's birthday this year.

following the ‪#‎tradition‬ of my childhood, sugar cereals are a treat reserved for birthday presents.
 We also give a can of spray cream to our kids on their birthday as an extra birthday treat. Given the cost of freight to our groceries on the island, it certainly is a big treat.

 



Friday Favourite~ Turning 11

Ted and I found this photo when he was a week old and joked that we should re-create it 'one day'.
We love seeing peoples funny recreated baby photos .

On the eve of his 11th birthday last night, I asked him for one last cuddle with my 10 year old boy, he laughed and said "just like that old photo of us Mum".

So Brandt snapped this photo and we put them together.

In a snap of the fingers...where did 11 years go?

CELEBRATION

Celebration

 



I didn't think I had much to offer this week for the theme celebration as we are planning 2 family birthdays in 9 days time..... then I posted these as they were the most current celebration pictures I have taken.

#‎celebrations‬ for a wee little boy who couldn't wait to arrive and for all the other babies born to islanders this week. what treasures you are!

BOUNTY

~Week 10~

Bounty

I haven't been down to Kingston for the Bounty day parade for the past 2 years as my kids have been sick at that time (and saving their energy for the bounty ball)

So here is some photos from previous years. 

And here are some Bounty ball photos from this year (2014)
