Last week, this week........and a party

 

 

 

Last week was busy!  Loads going on, a good kind of busy.  Driving everywhere with the kids, running errands, finishing off blog swap parcels and preparing for Tom's party.  He turned five on Valentines day - where does the time go?!

 

Saturday was party time.  We had a blast.  Kept it simple with a sausage sizzle and plates of watermelon.  For the cake I just baked a chocolate cake in a roasting dish.  Easy!  We hired a bouncy castle and face painter.  The piñata was a hit.

 

Sunday morning was spent playing with new Birthday toys.  We wandered up to our neighbours at midday for Sunday lunch.  I took a freshly baked cake and a jar of my homemade plum jam with us.  Such a nice feeling to be able to hand over something homemade.  After lunch we went and explored some of the 230 acres of farm land they have.  Much of it by golf cart which the kids just loved. 

 

This week we are visiting friends afterschool, a birthday to attend, my sewing space to sort out along with some catch up time with my Sew School work.  My sister arrives from Brisbane..........I feel like there is something else I'm meant to be doing???  I'm aiming for gardening time too.  And I need to clean the house.

 

That's me, how have you been?  Looking forward to spending a bit more time writing and reading blog posts.  Just love this space.

 

Have a lovely week, won't you?!
