This year, we didn’t get to the Lavender Farm outside of Daylesford for Mother’s Day as we usually do. We visited Daylesford and Kyneton the day before, with my hubby and dad too.
The plan was, after visiting a meat wholesaler, we would search for chestnuts on the side of the road in Daylesford, fill our empty bottles with natural mineral water from the springs, find some more red poisonous fairytale mushrooms…. and I also had the romantic notion of finding wild mushrooms that we could cook and eat!
Well, we got the meat, found about 7 chestnuts between the 5 of us, a few poisonous red mushrooms, left the empty water bottles back at home, and didn’t remember what kind of mushrooms were the safe ones to eat!
But it was a beautiful cold pre-Mother’s Day checking out the Autumn leaves and enjoying the beautiful homes in the area.
Here are some pictures from our fun family day out :-)
I hope all the mothers out there are having a beautiful Mother’s Day.
Enjoy a piece of cake for me :)

Hi Natasha! It always seems so funny to me that your seasons are opposite ours! Im thinking if I were rich, Id buy houses all around the world, move around and live where ever it was summer! I do love fall though. just not winter!
ReplyDeleteHave a happy Mothers day!

It's such a beautiful part of the world Natasha and your photos capture it perfectly. I think Autumn/winter are my favourite season in Daylesford.

Gorgeous Natasha! Both your family and the lovely area of Daylesford. So nice for you all to spend quality time together. Your photos look amazing! I especially love the one of Leroy jumping in the air and leaves.
ReplyDeleteHope your Mother's Day was lovely! :) XOXO,Jenn
It looks lovely! I know our seasons are opposite, but it is still strange to see you wearing coats when it's 90 degrees here!
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I are planning to visit Australia next year in Sept. I'll have to trade notes with you on the best places to visit during that time of the year.
Loved your autumn shots... beautiful!!
