Sculptures by the Sea

We had Sculptures by the Sea visit Cottesloe beach the other week. 

I think we've been going for 7 years now. 

From having a baby at the first, to being pregnant, then a baby, then a 2 week old baby and now with all 3 old enough to look around and enjoy the Scultpures.

We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful place.

I think this is definitely something we will be doing for many years to come...

Weekending...

It's been awhile since I did a weekending post, so thought I'd give you a little look at our weekend with three little girls!

Hope you all had an awesome weekend =)

The Year of the Fun Run!

 2013 was the year of the fun run! We completed 3 fun runs as a family and Sean also did Tough Mudder (which I don't have any photos from because we didn't get to go watch him)

In march we did our first "Color Run", then May was the "HBF Run for a Reason", October Sean did "Tough Mudder" then in November was our second "Color Run"!

In 2014 I hope we can do the same plus a few more. I'd like to do "Tough Mudder" and "Mudd Rush" with hubby and as a family the "Color Run" and "Run for a Reason" again and maybe the "City to Surf" and any others that come up!!

Onwards and upwards for 2014!!!!

 On the way to our first "Color Run"

 For the "Run for a Reason" the girls and I walked/ran the 4km course, while Sean did the 12km course. I was pretty proud of myself doing a 4km run with two kids on my own!!!!

 Gotta stretch Mummy! (this was totally unprompted, I asked her to stand for a photo and she came out with this!).

 My sister, husband and their two boys even joined us on the second "Color Run" we did! The kids loved having each other to run around with!

P.S. I am so lucky to live in such a beautiful city!

Do you have any family goals for 2014???

Weekending: Boy oh Boy is it SUMMER!!!

Oh my gosh is it summer! We are in the middle of a heatwave here in Perth. Over 35C for about a week. I don't think any day this past week has been under 38C! So we've been trying to get out in the mornings, then hibernate for the afternoon.

 There's been a lot of this...

 Birthday parties...

 Watching out strawberries grow...

 This is Gloria and Manny =)

 Frangipani's are about to bloom!

 At home salad bars for dinner!

 Evening walks...

 And morning ones too. LOVE those Australian Christmas trees!

 Early ice coffee in Freo.

THIS is summer! A box of mangoes for only $15!

 A bit of crafty in the air-conditioning.

 Some taffy making for teacher's Christmas presents.

And a bit of painting to finish the weekend up...almost, the girls jumped in the pool afterwards!
