There are not many blogs (apart from local ones) that I make sure I read regularly, but Attic24 is one of the ones that I do. I love it.  My lovely friend Steph introduced me to it, and Lucy makes me want to pick up a hook and start crocheting every time I read about her latest project.  Just had to share....

In all the cliche American movies they talk about the ideal "family life" including the white picket fence.  Well we must have it all now ;-)

I took these photos last night.  


This is what the house looked like just a couple of weeks ago....
Then we hired some helpers to give it a facelift. So I left for Melbourne for the weekend, with the house looking like this...

and came home to see that the windows were looking much prettier...

and the house was changing...

only one thing left for Ro to do. Smash up that ugly fence!


And look at her now!


Sometimes I get so stressy about things, and then one of my girls makes me laugh and snap me out of it . I had to take this picture because I had just been getting really annoyed with the traffic when Tia made me laugh so hard, and I wanted to catch that cheeky look on her face. What would I do without my girls?

I bought a cute little retro crochet pattern book the other day, and since I have been doing nothing but making badges and other stuff thaw related, I decided to spend a night making a beanie for myself.  Unfortunately it was more Laney sized, so it's now hers.  And she looks so darn cute in it, doesn't she?
