Schmidt clan

We're the mixed (up) clan who reign from South Africa (but originally from Scotland and Holland) and Germany. My great grandfather and mother and are part of the "Logan" clan. Also got a lot of Afrikaans blood in my veins. My husband, Michael, on the other hand is German...with a strong liking for burgers - the Mac sort. This leaves us with our nickname "McSchmidt"somehow bringing us both under the same umbrella and uniting our heritage. Do our poor kids have any hope with us lot as parents!?!

Pony riding on neighbour's Shetlands

At the beginning of December, John and Jette (our neighbour's children) got 2 Shetland ponies. They kindly invited us for a ride on day.

For the time being, we have a wonderful view of them from our lounge window (they are about 3m away!) in their little paddock. Of course, this is the view we have from our temporary accomodation while our house is getting renovated.
