Five Friday Faves

Sheesh I missed it again!! (Friday, I mean) 
My favourite thingies didn't jump out and say "Make a new Post about us!!"

So I've hunted them down...
A few scenes from our week 
here in Hamilton, NZ!



1. These frozen undies just about killed my 
3 little guys, they laughed so hard..
Someone had left them out on the deck and
this was the result one frosty morning.

Oh, and don't you love our view?
Yes, that's the kids' school over there  across that field!! Bliss.

2. My radio.
Link to the outside world and keeping me a bit sane. Maybe!
Kathryn Ryan from 9 till noon.
Commercial free of course.  


3. A bit of colour in the grey kitchen in our new house..

4. I found these in the un-pack! They were in my Christmas stocking when I was a youngster.
I LOVED them!
Iris thinks they're pretty cool too.

Anyone else recognise them?
You can click them together and un-click them.. make daisy chains, belts, hair thingies or tiaras etc!!
They are pretty old and a bit flimsy feeling now.. but NOSTALGIA trip here!!


5. Making my boys make one meal a week..
That's raspberry lemonade there folks.
Homemade with remnants of Summer, from our freezer (raspberries)


So those were a few scenes from our place this week.
Even if I don't get time to comment, I often have a quick squizz at what y'all are up to - a lot of inspiring and fabulous people out there!!

I don't know how you guys put up so many posts...
I am in awe!


Hope you're all rocking your weekend!

My favourite are your biscuit tin pictures (they are tops from tins aren't they?) What a fantastic way to display them.
Our weekend's rocking well so far.
