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

UK bound (part 1)

So there's NO way I could do this as one post. Mostly because it would be 500 photo's long, but also because I would just never get it done. I'm breaking it into small manageable goals (yes busted...I have been reading the weight watchers website :oP).

Part 1 - Gladstone to London. Check!









Notable moment... Steff took Saxon to the toilets in Dubai. He was standing next to a very large African man in full traditional dress and says in a typically loud 4 year old voice "Wow! That man has a gimornous winky!". Let's hope he doesn't speak English, shall we? lol

Stay tuned for Part 2...one day soon ;o)

Playing catch up

Cleaning out my folders and found some unblogged pics. There's no order...just sharing them as they are :o)

We had a party for Mummy Crocodile. Yes, we're a little bit insane.

I have LOTS from our UK trip, and I promise I'll get to them! Just please be patient xxx

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...
