Tiny Tales from Week 48

Have you had a frozen sprite from Maccas? Kieran and I have been testing the suitability of various flavour combos on Summer Hockey evenings. They have free refills so we go through the drive through and get one and then I go in the store and get a second. No1 on our list is the combination of Grape and Apple (Grappaple) but I also like Apple and Fairy Floss it reminds me of Toffee Apples. :-) They are totally 100% healthy of course..... NOT.

Peeling a carrot and then peeling it some more.

Too too cute!

This note was placed by the front door way since before December even started. Will wants to be sure Santa is aware of his love for him.

I needed to take photos for the landlady... the garden looks so much better after our two and a bit years in the house.

Graduation shopping with Jayme, Cailee and Bel. I liked this one and was completely surprised by the option she took in the end as she had been talking about and looking at dresses like the one above for over 12 months!

Ok.

Not really.

Isn't really what she had in mind, but....

Peppa Pig Cup Cakes!

December, finally!

Packing the house and making space for unpacking Christmas.

Tree up on the 1st of December for maximum enjoyment as it was coming down early for the move.

Kieran did super well in a play at school! He unfortunately was murdered at the end by these two murderesses posing as maids.

Backyard fun with Noah.

Mindfully Monday

Source: Unkown

My one little word for 2014 is 'Be'. I was for a long time considering 'Present' because I want to make sure to 'Be Present' in my life. But the more I looked into resources for the year and considered how I want the word to shape my year- the more I realised I want to 'Be' more than just present- which I guess I may explore a little more on the blog this year.

Part of being present in my life means less time spent on the computer- so I've simplified how I'm blogging in 2014 and I've got even more set days than last year. Hence 'Mindfully Monday' which is a reminder to me to start my week being mindful of what I am doing and remind myself to be present in my day. I'm not going to write each week- just some cool visual reminders.

Presently 5-1-14

Presently....

~ looking at the smoke that's blanketing the city.

~ listening to the weed eater as Les gets the yard in order for the move.

~ relieved that we got all the little stuff moved while we had the van.

~ hoping that we'll get all of our bond back.

~ seeing a lovely year ahead in our new neighbourhood.

~ dreaming of the time when the boxes will all be unpacked.
~ loving the darkness up the hill.
~ thankful for the hardwork of Les, Merenia and Kieran over the past two days
~ counting down the 'sleeps' left in this house- just one!!!

~ trusting that this move is just right for us.

~ anticipating being settled again.
