We have a new edition to the family 🐰

everyone welcome, Suzie Fluffington 💗

She loves Easter eggs, throwing tantrums and fainting (as we can see in the photos) when we don't get her Easter eggs. Then when she does get her way and we get her an Easter egg, she likes to pretend it's a chocolate car and ride in it like a gangster.

She's quite the character this one and that's why she's part of the family now! 🤣

‘Time To Go' 🏚️
a creative storyboard by me. ✨

‘it's time to pack up and move'.. says Nieve to Ruby, cuddling and feeling emotional.. 🏚️

and of course.

Tinzel is hiding up the lamp, lol.

when she eventually comes down to join everyone else after 2 and a half hours, she is angry and nervous about being put in a box, and Clara tries to calm her down saying ‘it'll only be for a little while, it's just to keep us safe while we travel, and then when we wake up, we'll be in a new big house!'.. but.. that goes right over Tinzel's head and she decides to do a runner (see pictures 6 and 7) and has everyone chasing her all over the living room! 😑

Linnea manages to capture her and totally subdue her, i'm surprised because unless Linnea has Malteasers up her dress, nothing relaxes Tinzel 😂 and so, with everyone a little calmer, I help Linnea into the box, where she gets really stressed out and upset. It broke my heart. But Mimzy the little pink cat came to the rescue and made her feel better.

‘no matter how scary things get, whether it's going into the unknown or feeling a little uncomfortable, we are all going to be together.’ meows Mimzy. 💜

Flósi get out of my cereal!!! it's not a bird bath! sit over there and behave yourself. 😓😂

mornings with flósi. 🙄

trying to get these 3 to pose for a family picture today was difficult. Flósi being her usual annoying self, dunked poor Oreo under the snow and then refused to help him back out! meanwhile Shiver the squirrel just tried to offer them both an acorn! oh dear.. 😓 but in the end.. i think we got there! ❄️

in frame 1 *the seconds later aftermath of flósi dunking oreo deep into the snow. and shiver just.. well.. trying to look helpful but just wants her acorn.*

in frame 2 *i am shouting in the background at flósi to be nice and help the poor penguin, but she acts so unbothered, tweets tweets at me in a way resembling to ‘am i f**k going to do that..’ and there's Shiver again, just.. minding her business..well.. acorn..*

in frame 3 *i told them all to behave, be helpful, and be nice or they would be getting left out there in the cold. flósi isn't fooling anyone with that face, shiver.. pretends to be interested for the photo but is just.. acorns.. 🤯 and oreo.. got a nice cozy cup of hot chocolate when we went home.. after flósi had a bath in the first 3 attempted mugs. 😂❄️🐦

where there is magic, there is never a dull moment.

happy snow day. ☕

`i guess we can be friends now' - says nieve. . .

this is nieve, and noelle the snowy owl. it took a while for these two to become friends, nieve is very quiet, solitary and likes to only live in her inner world, but noelle is loud, always flapping her big feathers and twit twoo'ing every 2 minutes! nieve didn't understand this for a while, she was always crash landing on her books mid-read, knocking off her headphones, pinching them and flying away, but noelle is just very excitable around nieve, she loves how unique her mermaidian hair is and how insular and mysterious someone can be. nieve found over time that they connect beautifully over their love for wintertime. these memoirs were taken a little over a year and a half ago, it was the beginning of a friendship. ❄

hi everyone! i'm toni as most of you will know. for those of you that don't know me, i'm a quiet, 25 year old girl from scotland that loves creative writing and photography, & so with these two blended together, i welcome you to Where The Magic Lives, this is a place i made up for myself to escape to, away from the heaviness of the world at the moment, and just to be like a child again, let my imagination run riot and play, because nothing makes me happier than this and you can play at ANY age if it brings you laughter and joy. It does with me. Toy photography and storytelling is my thing, i bring dolls and stuffed animals to life, give them names & let them sort of develop their own little personalities through the lense, capture funny moments and weave positive messages throughout. (i think we could all use that right now!) 🌟 I have been doing this for about two years now on Instagram and have decided to take this to Facebook and maybe try to reach anyone that is just looking for a little laughter, smile, escapism, joy or magic, i really hope you can find it here. 💜

lots of love, Toni McCartney x
