weekend love...

Its been a long time coming, but we finally had a chance to go out as a family last saturday. With the hubs working 6 days a week for a very long time, it was so good to have him home by 3pm for a change on a saturday. and because it was such fabulous weather we decided to go to Freo for a couple hours. It was really good to be together as our little family and have some good quality time. it was a good night. we had a yummy dinner. ate some yummy icecream to celebrate the 1st birthday of our spunky lil nephew in tasmania (happy birthday asher!) and then had a play at the park in the moonlight. playing at the park at night is just so different than during the day and the kids loved it. i dont really have any good photos, but i snapped a few on my phone (in the dark) just to capture some memories of fun family time. love my little family. they mean the world to me. sleepless night, sick kids and a hubby that has been working a lot... it all melts away when your swinging on the swings watching the stars. i'd recommend you give it a go :)

blessed with another year...

today i am blessed to be able to celebrate my birthday. 24 years old, wonderful caring husband who provides for us every day, a spunky, affectionate little man & and beautiful precious princess of a daughter.. i am richly blessed. and not only all of that, but wonderful extended family and friends who are there for me, catching up for coffee, chatting over dinner & drinks or casually having a natter over the phone. i am very thankful that God has been with me over the last years of my life and pray that he will continue to guide me as i be a godly wife, mother, daughter, sister & friend. i had a few friends over to enjoy a morning tea together this morning. thanks ladies for helping me make my day special. tonight we hope to go out for dinner with some of the extended family.. can't wait :) xx

here, there, everywhere...

its been such delightful weather this winter..and im just loving all the wonderful sunshine we're been getting. i know we need the rain badly, but i'm definitely enjoying the glorious sun. its so much more helpful getting kids/pram/belongings in and out of the car when its not bucketing down. so we have a done a few things lately. we've spent mornings down at the park, a bit of shopping, spending time at grandma's playing outside and last friday we went to the baby expo in claremont. its been nice getting out and about rather than spending every day at home. so while we pray for rain here to fill our dams and help the crops let us all be joyful that we are given some wonderful weather also. as this also is from His hand.
