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

Hello 2013!

Wow…what a year we’ve had! To be honest, I’m kinda glad to see the back of it. I’m so ready to start fresh! New year, new attitude, new outlook on life.

 2013 is going to be all about gratitude. So much of my life has been overshadowed by wishing, wanting and dreaming about what I DON’T have…I think it’s about time to focus on what I DO. And what I do have is kinda awesome.

Amazing husband, gorgeous healthy kids, loving family, roof over our heads and food on our table. Everything else is a bonus.

I know I’ve slacked off when it comes to blogging…I barely pick my camera up outside work hours these days. But I'm working on that!  I’m not making any promises…because let’s face it, new attitude or not, I’m still me, and me is kinda hopeless some days ;o) BUT…I’m going to make an effort. So welcome to the new year!

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...
