Well ... I'm back! Hello! I was going to wait until I had some newly finished renovations to show you guys... but I missed you all and I missed the blog.. so here I am :)
 |
| At some stage, I plan on enlarging and framing this picture for our bedroom... then decorate the room with this as the base. |
It's been a pretty busy week.
1. More work done on the front lounge room (
it's a bit of a understatement that I'm getting pretty sick of having things incomplete!) I'm really looking forward to showing you the new pictures very very very soon! Things are moving along and with luck, I'll be able to show you my newly decorated 'sitting room/reading room/having coffee and chatting with the candles and lamp producing a beautiful relaxing vibe room' :)
2. I was so happy to have TWO very enjoyable nights out at dinner with two of my lovely friends.
Lisa and I enjoyed a fantastic night out at Chatters Restaurant in Midland, then when the staff decided they wanted to go home and kicked us out, we continued on at The Principal Bar where we indulged in a champagne sitting outside under the heaters and chatting the night away.
Val and I had a great time at Penny Gardens Restaurant in the Swan Valley. I'd never been there before, so it was a real treat to try a new place, and dig in to some delicious food. The vibe in the restaurant was great, so relaxed and up beat.... a fantastic spot I'll definitely be visiting again! To say that Val and I can talk the place under the table is a bit of a under-statement. It's amazing that we even take the time to breathe with out non-stop chatting! A wonderful, relaxing night out.
3. I had a lovely outing by myself on Tuesday when the boys were at daycare. I wanted to get out of the house, so me and my camera went driving. I ended up just driving to Caversham and then trekking through a bush I found. I was in heaven with all the different plants and nature to photograph. The peace and quiet was pretty wonderful too. (
Apart from my squeals every now and then when I heard rustling in a near by shrub or saw an insect run past my feet).
4. Wednesday's power off day, had us going to the park bright and early (and I mean
early!) where we were not only rained out and ended up seeking shelter under a small rest area, but we met two elderly men with their dogs who they told us that they were friends and met every single morning, 7 days a week at 6.30am at the same park bench, to walk their dogs and chat. Isn't that gorgeous?! What a way to start the day :) It was a pleasure to meet them and Sam and Jacob were very happy to meet the doggies.
It has been a good week.
