Merry Christmas

The tree this year and our beloved Chocolate Australian Mist.

From our family to you, we wish you happy moments, peace and good health.

SUMMER HOLIDAYS ARE HERE!!

We are now all officially on holidays - Summer holidays with Christmas/New Year thrown in. I always find the first day of the Christmas school holidays the most wonderful of all the days. Waking up and realising that my time is truly my own agenda - no meetings, responsibilities, questions; it is a feeling of freedom and pure delight!

And yesterday was the first Summer day that Melbourne has seen in a while. Last Saturday, I drove through pouring wind and howling wind wearing a ski jacket to get my hair cut! But yesterday dawned clear, fine and sunny with no wind. DH and I enjoyed a leisurely breakfast at our favourite local cafe and later while some of the family enjoyed the sunshine in the pergola, the wonderful DH washed all the insect screens and windows.

Enjoying the Christmas Tree

How many sleeps until Santa comes?

The Chocolate Mist is a much loved family member but this photo is just so sweet!

What's In my chair?

Waiting to sleep on the finished quilt!

HolidaYs!
Am lucky to be on a two week break from the hustle and bustle of working days.
Hard to believe one week is nearly over as one tends to try and catch up on various "must do" items like medical appointments, housework...etc and none of things that you REALLY were looking forward to get done like playing with fabric!
But it's the weekend...the sun is shining and as it is the last Sunday in September, it's AFL Grand Final Day. Not that our team is playing but time to kick back and relaaaxxxx.
