We had a fairly busy weekend just gone which is unusual for us. On Saturday it was my sister's birthday and we had a barbecue/picnic lunch down by the beach. At night, Paul and I headed into the city for a birthday dinner while my Mum minded Grace. By the next day we were exhausted. One function a day seems to be all I can handle these days.
On Sunday, Paul was working away trying to level sand and dig reticulation trenches in the soon to be 'Grace's Corner' of our backyard. I had to spend some time online renewing my Western Australian College of Teaching membership (what a painful process!) and so Grace was happy playing in the sand watching Paul. When I finally came out to see what they were both up to, Grace was filthy and covered in dirt so we filled up her outdoor toy tub with warm water and bubble bath and she spent a good half hour in there splashing around and having fun.
As for the week ahead, my first Cooking Club with my friends is this Friday night which I am really looking forward to. What are you looking forward to this week?
What a gorgeous little cutie pie. And she has lovely long eye lashes which I can see in the first photo. Sounds like a busy weekend!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to a few coffee's with friends in the day and a dinner on tues night.
I can't wait to see Gracie's Corner when it's done!

Those eyelashes get quite a few comments :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect childhood memento photo! I love it! Grace does have stunning eyelashes.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to Bunnings opening tomorrow. I know it sounds pathetic, but it's been 2mths since the closest two near our home were flooded, and I didn't realise (until without it) how I rely on it with my reno & revamp projects so much... xx
Oh be still my heart..love that little munchkin to bits! I so want to squish her! :) x
ReplyDeleteOh she looks so cute in that tub!! It does get tiring doing to much on the weekend doesnt it, we had a busty one too. Cant wait to hear about your cooking night!
ReplyDeleteWe are having friends over for dinner on Saturday night and off to lunch with family on the Sunday so I will be all socialised out by Sunday night! Can't wait to hear more about your cooking club xx
ReplyDeleteShe is adorable sitting up in that bath!
ReplyDeleteOh Amanda, how coincidental! I have some identical photos of Oscar escaping the heat that I was going to post today. Those tubs are a lifesaver aren't they!
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely photograph, it does sound like you had a busy weekend, I hope you had a nice dinner out. Are you planning on doing some more teaching? All those registrations do seem to be ridiculously complex. I'm looking forward to hearing all about your dinner, I think you will have such a wonderful time. I'm looking forward to the weekend I think...work is going to be a bit blah this week, my other workmate who I sit with is in Japan...so I hope he is ok.
ReplyDeleteI too was going to comment on those lovely long lashes. Simply gorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteSo gorgeous! Cooking club sounds so much fun - i'm looking forward to two nights out this week with friends :-) xo
ReplyDeleteA cooking club? Sounds like lots of fun! Can't wait to hear more. Emma.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I wish it was warm enough here to do that! We missed out on summer!
ReplyDeleteGrace is so cute!! Sounds like you had a nice weekend. We did too. Our weather was gorgeous (finally some warm temps). I worked on my blog and baked my favorite lemon cake. As far as this week, I'm looking forward to it being over. We have a big event at work and it's going to be very busy!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week,
Claudia
