Of course, we couldn't stay away forever and so we headed home via Hahndorf so that I could catch up for brunch with one of my oldest friends from Queensland who happened to be in the area for a wedding and extended vacay! We didn't have long but we packed in a heap of conversation into …

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 …
Prepping for Nanowrimo
Can you believe that we are already nearing the end of October? Someone even said that it was only 8 more Friday's until Christmas - what the what now? But as we inch closer to Christmas, that also means we inch closer to Nanowrimo in November... Now you're really asking what the what now, aren't you? …
Fridays are the best days

Spring blooms
Our front garden is filled with the most beautiful fragrance as our roses burst into bloom. We're reluctant rose gardeners having inherited roses in the last two homes we've owned.

Three months left
If you've ever read any of those articles that identify the key things you need to do to be a successful blogger then you may have read that one these things is quality content. Quality content that is relevant, relatable and memorable. Uh-oh! I can't say that I'm ticking that box right now. Thankfully, my plan has never …
Counting down the clock
With the attention span of a three year old, I have spent the day flitting from one task to another whilst watching the hours tick by with excruciating slowness. It's only Wednesday but in 2 hours I will be heading off on a few days annual leave and in particular heading off to a workshop in …
