We had such a great day today though I’m not going to pretend that getting up and out of the house and actually being somewhere by a certain time is easy (I’m out of practice you understand!). I went off to my little Teacher Aide …
The hideous beast known as moving house has been firmly dealt with and we are now unpacked (I think there are 3 boxes of non-essentials left). Moving day was pouring with rain of course, but everyone charged it and the move was flawless. Our new house is amazing. We all absolutely love it.

On Easter Sunday, Dave, Debbieand I took the kids to the Art Gallery for a kids only art class. It was great (I imagine it was great at least…..Debbie and I were relaxing in a cafe drinking spirulina and Dave was skating!).
I will be officially old at the end of the month. No longer happily skipping along in my twenties I will soon turn 30. It’s quite a corner turned really, as you enter your twenties without a care in the world, a free agent, a …
Oskar and Stella are on holiday with Old Nan and Old Pop (Ethan’s names – they help him keep track of all of his Nanas!) so we popped over for lunch on Monday and the kids had a blast catching up and having fun;
Here I am playing blog games with Julz again; 1. I don’t own a clothes dryer, that’s what the sun is for 2. I listen to the same play list everyday when I run, it NEVER changes 3. I don’t wash the dishes unless there …
