I heart: sunshine & spring










What an amazing weekend we have had in Hobart weather wise!!!

In my case I think it was just what the doctor ordered to pep up my spirits and and adorn me in so much inspiration again!!!!
We have had wonderful get together's with family and friends- so much fun!!!

Today we all went for a walk and run again- lots of fun to do this as a family- of course there are moments of slow down, wait for me, let me be first on the track, my legs hurt......as per usual however these are now slowly starting to be replaced with lots of chatting and talk between parents and children, a different chatting to usual home chatting- it is really nice and also so very informative!! 
Indy also had a special weekend dancing class - she has been asking if she could join the champion group that her teacher had asked her to be a part of- after a bit of "thinking" it over we decided if she wants to do it then we will support her- she then agreed to do a solo lesson as well- both held on Saturday!! hmmm...
Then it was playing in the garden for me, Marty has started boxing training a family friend 18 year old so they went off and did that, a bit of basketball shooting and a little bit more whinging from my 7 year old- think he is a little of tired.
He has always run and kicked and played until he crashes basically and I think this awesome weekend for us all will hopefully result in a great nights sleep for us all!!

Anyhow I best head of and iron the uniforms- Marty is cooking tea and it smells YUMMY!!!
Oh plenty of new ideas and plans getting written in my book of inspiration so I will hopefully make a start on some new cool projects this week.

Have a great week everyone in blog land - say hi if you happen to swing by!!

a day like that

today has been weird- I SO want to do stuff- fun stuff, new stuff not boring old stuff!!  One of those days I think- perhaps tonight might be time for some new lists.....that's if I can kill this headache thats has been brewing for a few days darn headaches!!!!


Think the head issue might be related to the weather- above is the view from the balcony off my bedroom brrr.
And below is looking down from there into my front overgrown garden !!



My fav wall in the house with lots of  the family shots on there!! It has done well as the long hall is often used as a footy field, cricket pitch, dancing strip, and of late a basketball area???


My white towel corner in the down stairs bathroom- aka the kids bathroom!!  All white towels are a bliss use them and then just bleach them all and they always look so fresh!!


I wasn't sure wether to add this one or not as it is my very messy half renovated kitchen!! hehe BUT i do love my stove it is bliss!! 


a new order just about finished just needs a nice vintage white button eye!!



a pile of fabrics I am playing with for a new order for a little baby girls quilt....still playing just cant seem to make any decisive decisions this week?  Must be the head?

Any how I am off out and about now so enjoy the day everyone!!
