Moments to remember...




Laura played keyboard for the first time at church on Sunday. I was so proud of her. She has taught herself how to play. I took these photos on my mobile phone so they are a bit blurry. Chris lead worship and Jack, well he played his guitar in the aisle near me...

Moments to remember...

Little Mr Fix it is working on his tractor...

I love how he is using his skateboard to go under the tractor to do the repairs...

Look at that smile...

Jack had wanted a tractor and we had looked at them at the shops but they were so expensive. On the way home from Laura's dance lessons a few years ago, I found this one in someone's rubbish pile for council pick up. With a little bit of tinkering, Chris fixed it and Jack loves it so much. God is so good and gives us the desires of our heart.

Moments to remember...

I had to catch this moment on camera. Jack has learnt to write my name. While I was cooking dinner, he stood up on his chair and drew on the blackboard on the pantry door. He was so excited. Oh, and the picture that he drew isn't of me, it's a picture of his friend Tess. And yes, he is practising to write her name too...

Gratitude Monday...


I love my beautiful 'David Austen' roses from my garden. They smell so fragrant. When you walk into the room you can smell them on the table...

These are a few of my favourite things...

I'd love a fireplace and I'm still loving the light blue walls...

I'm going to try and make covers for my geneo arm chairs one day. Not this colour for my house but I still think it's cute. Especially with lots of white...

I love old crates and boxes...

Such a fresh bathroom. Love the chandeliers...

Love to find a desk like this on ebay for Laura's room. Maybe even a rolltop desk and paint it white...

Beautiful Victorian holiday home...

I found this lovely Victorian holiday home in Maldon, about 1 and a half hours drive from Melbourne. It's so beautiful. For more info have a look at their website here. It's called Heatherlie.







Wildlife Birthday Party...

Jack had a great time at his friends wildlife birthday party. Here are some of the photos...














Love this little house...

Has anyone seen the show called "Grandpa in my pocket" on ABC Kids in the mornings? I love the house that the show is filmed in.
I tried to find a picture of it on the net but I could only get this photo of it not furnished. Have a look some time at the show and see how it's furnished. It's so cute. I love the colours...

Bath time...

Jack found Laura's old trampoline behind the cubby house. He was showing me some of his tricks on it when I noticed his legs and feet changing colour... Ooppss... He thought it was pretty funny. Off to have a bubble bath and scrub it all off before his afternoon sleep on the crisp white sheets...

I love florals...

I love this large floral for a girls dress...

Cute floral apron looks great with denim and fresh white...

Jack has some old jeans but I don't think the floral would suit him... :)

Love pale blue florals...

And these cushions...


And this floral bag...
