My Christmas…
I had such a lovely Christmas with my family in Albury at my sister’s new house. She had been working like mad to get it ready for Christmas Day! How is that pool area looking? I ate too much as usual. I drank too much (we even went the shots!).…
Santa is coming to our house!
We’re ready to go… the Santa sacks are hanging over chairs, the Christmas carols are blaring, we have stocked the fridge with food and beer… I’ve had a spray tan, done my nails, cleaned the house… bring it on! Tonight we’re having a drink with some of my husband’s family,…

My new make-up thanks to my Mum
She always knows what to buy. She always buys me sheets, towels, fancy shampoo/conditioner and this year I found these goodies also tucked in to a cute make-up bag. She proudly showed me what the colour of the nail polish looked like on her toes (“I had to give it…
The day has been and gone
Just like that Christmas Day is over. We’ve been counting down for months. The boys are tired and now we get to relax. Below is a photo of Amie and I on Christmas Day. Not long after this she became ill with a violent vomiting bug. Poor thing. She was…
