Once upon a time...


In a land far far away, there lived a king and a queen and their four beautiful children... Unfortunately they were way too boring to write about, so you're all stuck with the Dimmock's instead!

We're a bit of a fractured fairytale.I can't promise to update every day...I'm a bit slack like that (shhh), but I'll do my best to keep it up.

And they all lived happily ever after...well that's the plan at least :oP

10. Bless you!

So I had this fantastic idea that we should go see How to Train Your Dragon in 3D today. Only our local cinema doesn't have 3D, so it meant a drive to Rocky (about 1.5 hours away). Not too bad really, but the movie started at 12.40, and Steff had to work today. He went in at 4am so that we could go. Because he's awesome like that. And also a little bit insane.

The kids LOVED it though, so it was totally worth it! It was Saxon's first time at the movies, and for the first hour he didn't move. After that he got a bit restless, but he was ok...just walked around the empty seats and up the aisles.

Cutest thing: The main character is a viking boy named "Hiccup" (yes...Hiccup!). Wyatt leaned over to me during the movie and says "I hope the dragon isn't going to eat Bless You". It took me a moment to realise that he had his bodily functions mixed up...Hiccup is almost the same as a sneeze, isn't it?

No photo today sorry...I took a couple of iPhone pics of the boys sleeping in the car on the way home, but they're still in my iPhone.

See you all tomorrow!

LMAO!!! That is so cute! Hiccup and Bless you!

A little about us...ok, mostly me...

Hey there! I'm guessing that most people who drop by to visit us here already know who we are, but just in case...

My name's Nikki. I'm mum to 4 (yeah, 4...can you believe it? No, me either *shudder*) kids, aged from 16 down to 4. My husband, Steff, is originally from the UK - I stole him away from the cold and the damp to live in Central Queensland, where he must endure almost endless sunshine and blue skies. Somehow he manages ;o)

I started this blog as a way to keep family in England up to date with our comings and goings. And it lets me show off how cute the kids are getting!

A little about me...I'm a professional photographer, I'm obsessive about Buffy the Vampire Slayer, love Harry Potter, Sookie Stackhouse (only book Sookie, not True Blood Sookie. It's an important distinction!), (the 10th) Doctor Who, cupcakes, and Spuffy fanfic (although not necessarily in that order). I'm also an extreme perfectionist with a love of the creative and original, who has a very low tolerance for stupidity. If you ask my husband, he'll tell you I'm a huge snob - I'm really not. I just think I'm better than everyone else :oP (That's a joke, ok? Pretty much).

Oh, and please leave a comment to tell me how fabulous you think I am...it makes me write faster and more often ;o) No really...that part wasn't a joke...
