Bring it On!

 
Eight weeks people... 

That's how long these precious children have been on their school holiday for.


Eight Weeks!

We've had a wonderful Summer holiday together... at times there has been fighting and bickering, but there have also been some great memories made and heaps of fun had together.


And also quite a bit of growing going on in a certain young man's life...


I have loved the holiday mode we've been in as a family, but I am super keen to get back into routine again.


Yes, I know I look slightly crazed... that's what eight weeks of holidays with 4 children does to you...


Just kidding!

Sort of.


Yes, bring on 2012 and all that it holds (including trying to buy matching pyjama sets for my children).

Things I'm Loving...


I wholeheartedly believe that no matter what is happening in your life, there is always something that you can be thankful for... no matter how simple it is.  

Wow, this week has gone by so fast!  Here are a few of the things I am loving at the moment...

Loving my bedside clock (and coaster)...


Loving Licorice Allsorts!  Probably some of my all time favourite lollies...


Loving waterslides set up in the backyard...



Loving this...


Totally loving my afternoon "winding down" tradition lately.  Ginger Beer + Gary Larson = Good times!


Loving my family (who are all back to school next week!)...


Here's how you can join in....

Makings...


Currently I'm making this "Ugly Granny Square Blanket".  I call it ugly because it's being made out of my random scraps of wool... but I secretly think it's rather cute (and Symon has recently started referring to it as his, so obviously he thinks it's pretty awesome too).

I'm not sure how much crafting, baking or blogging I will get around to this year... we'll just have to wait and see.   One thing I know for sure, if I can squeeze in a little bit of crochet here and there, I definitely will!!

Wordy Wednesday

Loving these Scriptures that I've spotted on Pinterest (click on each one to find original source)...





 Beautiful words, full of hope!
