No, we don't own a rabbit, although some of our children are hoping we will....
We had the privilege of petsitting Lucy for nearly two weeks, her fur is SO soft. Lucy returned home yesterday.
We'd be happy to look after her anytime, a short-term pet works very well.
You may remember Master T's birthday piñata, Miss E was very keen to have her very own
Our piñatas proved to be more like bouncy balls than brittle pots! But where there's a will, there's a way!
Hockey season finished with a flurry of preliminary finals, a grand final win (Master T's team) and presentation events. One of Miss O's hockey clubs finished with a ten pin bowling presentation event for all their teams which proved to be very popular.
Badminton with a soft foam ball suits our backyard restrictions perfectly. A birthday gift for Master T from his siblings.
Miss E always likes to play on the swings at church before and after the service.
The view from our church grounds last Sunday, the clouds were amazing. The flood plains below and hills beyond are quite brown following our dry and frosty winter. Thankfully we have had a few spring storms this week, bringing much appreciated rain.
I hope your recent days have yielded joy and beauty of their own too.

Lucy is very cute! My Grands had a piñata for their b-day. We had trouble breaking it to get at the goodies.
Aww... what a cute pet to petsit! That mini pinata is the cutest thing... how creative and fun!!
Beautiful bunny, and lovely photos. I especially like the one in the bowling alley with all the bright colors and the one with the swing. Fun! You're right, the clouds were beautiful.
Thanks for sharing the fun -- and your wonderful family does know how to have fun!! Beautiful bunny!! Amazing skies and terrific captures for the day, Karen! Hope your week is going well!!
What a gorgeous bunny. I would love one as a pet but we can't own them in Queensland.
The photos are lovely and look like happy times.
ps. I posted the links to the Kusudama in the comments on my blog.
I had no idea you can't have pet rabbits in Qld. It's quite OK in NSW, one of our neighbours has a pet rabbit too but not so pretty or friendly as this one.
Thanks for the paper folding link too!
Great photos, you should frame one of the rabbit ones as a gift to her owner- I am sure she would love it!
Looks like a lot of fun going on there down under. I enjoyed all your photos. Thanks for sharing them with us.
Hugs~
The rabbit is adorable--I'm sure your kids "fell in love with her. Looks like you have an active bunch at your house--lots of fun things going on. Great post, as always. Mickie :)
beautiful pictures!
the rabbit...fantastic! :)
so cute. A friend of mine from Australia commented on my pet-post at wordpress (christinasweden) that you were not allowed having those as pets because of diseases
Hi Christina, in some states it's illegal to keep rabbits, in our state it is allowed. I think there is concern over escaped animals breeding to great numbers and destroying crops. This happened in our country many years ago.
My daughter had her own Lucy for 12 years. She acted like a dog. Where my daughter was the rabbit was. Fantastic vieuw over the countryside Karen, so peacefull.
Have a wonderful day.
Lucy the Bunny is adorable! Thinking of taking home one to take care of, am sure my sons would be thrilled! Had fun viewing the shots at play of the kiddos here and sigh that sky shot is amazing...what a wonderful view to see indeed....blessed week to you :-)
Lovely to hear from you again Kulasa, thank you for your wonderful comment. I seem unable to comment on your blog as I am not on facebook etc....although your blog is lovely.
a lovely post and I smiled at the finale of the pinata on the ground getting a thrashing. Looks like a good day had by all
Your blogs with pictures of your children are a real delight to see Karen. Thanks and say 'hi' from this New Zealander - Dave
Last photo is magic!

Such a cute bunny!! I used to have a pet rabbit, I loved that thing!
That bunny is adorable!

You are enjoying spring in your lovely country...the bunny spits out without abandon, "Springtime"!
Love the sights of your family going about doing things together.
I love the White Rabbit... he looks very cool and reminds me of Alice in Wonderland!

Thanks for sharing all the lovely photos...Lucy the rabbit is so beautiful, with the white fur, and your children are so happy with their fun outdoor day:)

Beautiful rabit, doing sports gives a good feeling. We try to dance at least 4 times a week.
Greetings,

Great fun!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Lucy is absolutely precious! Reminds me of my rabbit, Snowball, that I had when I was a girl. Snowball was kind of mean, so I hope Lucy is as sweet as she looks. Enjoyed the photos of the children. LOVED the shot of the sky. Wow!
there is always magic that happens every single day, we just have to look and listen.
happy skywatching.
You can just feel the bunny's softness through your photos and what a sweet brown patch on its nose :)
Doesnt the sky look like the waves are crashing on the shore? Very nice!
All sort of magic in your post starting with that rabbit and ending with the marvelous skies. Take care, :)
Uwielbiam patrzeć na zabawy i gry dzieci, które są w tym momencie bardzo szczęśliwe. Wspaniałe zdjęcia to pokazują. Pozdrawiam.
I love to watch the fun and games of children who are at this moment very happy. Great pictures to show. Yours.
I do like the rabbit shots! Nice set of pictures.

Adorable rabbit. I bet your kids did love pet setting. I know mine would.
Love that little piñata. What fun for her to make one and crack it open her self. You're kids are beautiful!
I hope you have a wonderful weekend ;)

Sweet rabbit! Great spring pictures of the kids enjoying themselves, and I love the sky shot from the church grounds!
I love all of these photos!! that sweet bunny is TOO much and the fun times being had are delightful... that pretty sky is amazing, too!! LOVE <3
I just love your cute bunny. Looks like a lot of fun times happening there. It is nice to see the children playing outside. The last shot of the view is just gorgeous. Lovely photos, thanks for sharing. Happy Skywatching!
God bless you and that delightful family of yours. I'd have to vote with your children-- how could you see Lucy and not want to have one? Fantastic photos.
Beautiful pictures. Gorgeous rabbit. My son has been wanting one.
Pinatas are great fun. We usually get a three foot pinata and fill it with candy. Oh, the next time you use a pinata, make sure it isn't made of hard cardboard but rather paper mache. :)
GC our children made these from paper mache, but maybe it needs to dry for more days.
Cute rabbit! I had one like that when I was a child. And the children look like they have lots of fun. Especially bowling - which i remember enjoying too. Thank you for contributing to Mandarin Orange Monday.
Lucy is lovely!
I used to breed rabbits as a child and teenager in Melbourne. You can't own a rabbit up here in Brisbane so my children bred guinea pigs (loads of them!!). I love the mini pinata!
