Little Girl Big Dreams







Joni from Lay Baby Lay  blog has this amazing bedroom for some special little girls. I love it all!! I love that it mixes old and new furniture, colours and that two children are sharing this space. It comes from my favourite blogger of all time House of Turquoise. I hope to show you some other little things that make my heart sing over the coming months. I love to dream and look for ideas in lots of blogs and my other addiction....Pinterest

Family Fun

Well we all love a few 'family traditions' in our lives and I think this one will have to become ours!! Recently we were determined to just have fun and do some things with the family that are just a little special. 

Just before Christmas we decided that after seeing our churches annual production, we would indulge in our local ice cream shops famous SINK. We had all heard about it, seen pictures but never actually taken part in devouring 15 different scoops of ice cream in the one bowl. The owners like to call it a 'sink' as it is served in an actual sink! 

Now I don't recommend sharing bowls with friends but because we are a family and technically have the same germs, I approved!!

 It took a family effort to consume so much ice cream but we did it! Harry held the trophy on his head as if he had just won the grand final of football!! They loved every bit!!

 It was fun to be a kid again. So I encourage you to think as a family of some crazy activities and just do it!! Be a kid again!! This is what memories are made of!!!


Thanks to our yummy ice cream shop!!!

Where have you been?

I few people have asked me about my blog. They have told me that they miss my posts and following in my 'very exciting' life! lol i must admit that i really have missed writing about the days and creating a record of the family for years to come. So i decided to switch my attention onto this blog for a while and see if I can keep at it for more than a month!!

So it is not a New Years Resolution because we all know how well we stick to them!! I'm beginning before the end of the year so I can recap before the year 2014 graces us with it's presence. Looking over the past few posts I can see that I left off around July. So over the next couple of posts I will try to fill you in on all that has happened. Nothing too exciting, just a few pictures of the gang.
