Is anyone else hanging out for the end of this year? I know that I certainly aim. 2015 has been rough and I can't wait for Christmas to engulf us in it's cheeriness and herald the end of another year. But alas, we're not quite there yet and so another week begins. And with three months of the …

Spring time BBQ
Tonight we celebrated the 40th of a friend of ours. A stunningly beautiful day and mild evening made us remember why we love where we live so much. The outdoor living here is second to none and soon we'll be having meals and spending all out time outside. This time of year is still magic …
A hairy milestone
Today saw a momentous milestone unfold! And it wasn't just the fact that it is Friday! No, today Miss B had her first haircut. Born with a headful of hair, Miss B has had some of the most adorable curls and beautiful thick hair. But with some recent headlice infestations, it was just getting too much …
Sleep is the answer
I went for a walk this evening with my sister in law and she made dinner. Miss A went to bed as easily as normal and Miss B surprised us by saying 'Mummy, I'm going to bed'. Thinking she would be out in five minutes, I gave her 10 and discovered that yes, she had …
Saturday bliss
Sunshine makes for the best weekends don't you think? And today didn't disappoint. A fabulous start to the weekend catching up with my gals at the park, checking out the farmer's market, continuing with my grey-no-more sessions, cheese toasties for dinner, and finishing up with Miss Congeniality. Happy days! What did you get up to …
Playing catch up
So it's Friday and it's been a long day! In fact, it's been a pretty long week! After a fairly early night last night, we got an early start which was great as we could head off, pick up the girls on the way through and still have the afternoon to enjoy some seriously good spring …
Yay technology!
So there's no question that technology is a wonderful thing. Except for when it isn't. The last couple of days I've had some issues trying to upload posts and make things work properly. Not sure if it's an issue with wordpress or my domain settings but whatever it is, I think I have fixed it! Coz, …
Catching up on life
I know that I'm not the only one that resents having to use my weekends to catch up on life. Laundry to be done, floors to be cleaned, toys to be put away, toys to be put away... wait hang on. Oh yes, toys to be put away!!! I'm luckier than most in that I work …
Spring is in the air
Don't you just love spring! That moment as you walk out side and feel the warmth of the sun and the scent in the air is just one of the most energising feelings. Especially where I live. We live in a region where we get bitterly cold desert winters and scorching hot summers. And as a born and bred Queenslander, …
R U OK?
Today is R U OK day. An initiative designed to start a conversation and check in with your mates to make sure they're ok and that they know, you're there to listen should they need a friendly ear. I've been supporting this concept for a few years now and am always heartened to hear when this one little question …
