weekend

spent a lovely (albeit tiring!) weekend with the fam down the coast. the weather was perfection. just the right kind of spots for three boys to explore - rockpools, dinosaur caves, endless beaches.

these are our cousin laura's kids, who sadly passed away in may of this year. for having lost their mum so recently, these kids are doing incredibly well. they are so full of love and spending a couple of days with them and receiving all their cuddles and laughing at all their jokes and mishaps was an absolute honour.....cheesy i know!

haha - but boy is my body sore from picking up, cuddling, holding whilst sleeping, stroking, feeding, changing, suncream-ing, keeping still! three energetic boys are a handful!

big weekend

surprise visit from lici who has been living in alice springs for the last 2 months...

epic op shop adventures :: trash talking :: way too much food (and champagne)

and realising that each time we share another hangover, it gets nastier and lasts even longer than the last time

p.s. nina i hope our toothache has eased up!

saturday

::photos came too easily today with so much sunshine around::

snow peas, jasmine and rocket going crazy in the garden

time to wash the sheets!

that went fast!

my work is just around the corner from little cupcakes and my colleague surprised us on friday arvo with a bunch of these! yummo!

can't believe it's the weekend again.....work crazy but great and happy that i'm currently watching rage and drinking tea in my pj's.

(p.s. we have bought a second hand car! oh op shops in far and wide places......you better watch out!!!)

saturday morning

too tired for words...

lucky for me saturday morning is mine all mine (poor kee had to trundle off to work)

4 movies down, 3 more this weekend and then festival continues next week!
