a weekend away...









I have just returned from a gorgeous weekend down south with my little person. We stayed with some favourite friends. We enjoyed yummy roast dinners and lazy mid morning breakfasts. We drank and ate pizza and stayed up talking, but not too late... The little people played and caught up and it was amazing to see them recognise each other after 6 months of being away.

On the drive home today I hit up a few of my favourite old country op-shops and they didn't disappoint. I have arrived home with a car full of treasure, and I can't wait to show off the full extent of the haul at some time later this week...

I promised a give away on Friday, sorry for leading you on, I do have something organised but I have not had the chance to set it up yet. Stay tuned - coming soon.

Dinner time!! I must away...
