CHRISTMAS!

Christmas is always so frantic and busy that no one really takes any good photos. But, while Christmas photos are never the best, they're always the happiest. And what a happy Christmas we had! Olive was an absolute gem. She had such fun and didn't have a single meltdown, which is incredible considering we were out for breakfast, lunch and dinner and not home until way after her usual bed time. Friends, family, food and festivities = a perfect Christmas!  

Little Lake.

Had a lovely swim at Little Lake with Sarah, Lucas and Olive earlier in the week. Sometimes I really miss living in Sydney, but all it takes is looking at pictures like these, of us at one of the loads of beautiful places 5 minutes away from our house, and I remember why we moved back and how lucky Olive is to spend her childhood here.

Summer BBQ.

 Food, booze, friends, sunshine, babies squealing and chasing each other. Summer, I love you.

O Christmas Tree!

 There's not much I love more than the month of December - the tree, the smell of pine, the lights, the songs, the food, the buying of presents, the decorating, the catching up with friends and family, the wrapping, the shopping for and giving of presents… If Olive's interest in the Christmas tree is anything to go by, she may have inherited her mother's love for all things Christmas. Living in this house, she's not really going to have a choice.
