Saying goodbye

It's been a big day with an early morning start (aka, at my desk at 5am to finish darn policy!!!) and a late finish (pizza down at the river with my mums group). I have been lucky enough to have an amazing mum's group - a group of ten of us who have pretty much …

Pictures speak a thousand words

Today it was time to go home *sadface* And after a restless night with a teething bubba (resulting on being thrown up on in our bed at 5am), it was a long long day of packing up, driving and constant twisting and turning to deal with backseat dramas (OMG, I need an appointment with the chiropractor …

Memories are made from days like these

Remember those trips as a kid where you were camping or fishing or running around with friends and how snippets of those times come back to you now and again as  moments of nostalgia many years later in adulthood? That's what we created today.  A day spent on the water in the ski boat (thanks …

Loving Magic Mike XXL’s, erm, storyline

I wasn't sure if I was going to get away with a girls night out after being away for a few days last week, but luckily for me I have an awesome husband and he was home early, for a Friday (plus I cleaned the house and had dinner ready to go!! It's all in the …

All good things must come to an end

The downside to going to a wedding on the other side of the country is, hands down, the trip home.  We knew when planning our trip that it was going to be short and face paced, but it's not been until we've been in the cars and planes that we've been able to realise just how ambitious …
