I'm getting there!

I've been trying for ages to get this one posted, and tonights the night!

Just a little reflect on the last month, and the holidays. Little Miss was at vacation care program 3 days a week while I worked, so we had 4 days a week together. 

New Years Day started it off with fabric sorting and dvds;

whilst the girl was at the beach with her bestie.

We had a night at the Moonlight Cinema at the Botanic Gardens;

and watched Grease: Sing a Long while the bats flew overhead.

We backed that up the next night with out first Melbourne Tigers basketball game! With one of their huge fans, introducing us the the game fun.

We were even 'found' on the televised version and Instagrammed! Jacqueline did her version of 'celebrity spotting' haha

There was much catching up with this little man, here on his new wheels.

 and of course, many selfies!

This is Henry's selfie face- saying 'Blue Steel selfie' gets this face every time! Hilarious!

Now to get the sewing projects in some semblance of order and show them!

Cool weekend trip

So we jumped in the car last Saturday, and headed off for 2 nights down here.

A bit of R&R (no sewing machine, but definitely cross stitch taken. But no time to do it!)

The first afternoon meant a huge walk around the lake and ocean.

and LOTS of swims in the pool.

jumping pillow (I tried it. It doesn't like back injuries like mine, unfortunately!)

but I ignored the back to go on this beauty! Flicker was pretty gentle on me.

I cut a striking figure as usual (not!) Some people look good on a horse; I'm not one of them! But the view....

ooh, yeah!

paddle boats the next day meant my legs didn't work for a while. I channeled The Biggest Loser doing this one....

and the car trip home was hard. 

but a brilliant time! Unfortunately it was at the beginnings of the holidays, so it has been forgotten for a while....

A sunny weekend

Wasn't last weekend beautiful?

We were lucky in that we had a party in the park on Saturday afternoon,

down at Altona Beach.

There was a donut cake;

games;

a play on the beach, no matter how cold the water;

cartwheels through the seagull posse;

and a really funny pic!

Sunday meant babysitting and a walk to the local park;

and learning to walk the dog! (He only let go once teehee)

We were pretty tired at the end of it all. But such nice weather....
