Bye bye November!



Aw we had such a fab family day yesterday. Hot chocolate stop, Ice skating, another hot chocolate stop, and then finished the day off putting the tree up and watching Home Alone 2 (we watched the 1st one last weekend - best Christmas film EVER!).

This was only the second time the little guy had been skating, and hats off to him he kept going regardless of how many times he fell over (it was a lot!).

After our second hot chocolate stop we quickly went into a couple of shops to pick up a couple of presents and hubby treated me to this gorgeous pop-up advent calendar!




It's by Eric Carle, the same guy that wrote The Hungry Caterpillar and I loved that book as a kid. Each day you get a new decoration to add to the tree and today was an ickle bitty santa. How cool!




It's such a fun alternative to a chocolate one. I love the colours.




I can't believe it's December already! I love Christmas so much and we have a bucket load of fun stuff planned for the next few weeks.




Hope you had a fun weekend x

Love that #1

This t-shirt! Years ago I saw a big cat opposite my parents house and everyone thought I'd lost it. There were several reports over the following couple of weeks from local farmers that had seen something similar. Seeing is believing! I still believe.



How cute are these earrings?! Tiny baby cacti.



These are my all time favourite socks. I have a thing for nice socks - my socks need to be bright and fun. I mean, if you're having a bad day all you gotta do is lift up your jeans and a flash of something fun down there is enough to put a smile back on your face. Oh and these are the softest socks ever. Fact.



Dinosaurs and plants! Hmm I wonder if I can get the little man to part with his dinos....



This ring is sweet. Makes me think of fircones.



Have a great weekend x

It's the little things



Check out this handsome fella!
How can you not love him? I mean, those legs. He (she?) treated me to a show of his tippy toes as he crept up and down the canal stalking out his breakfast. Not too sure of the tastiness lurking in that water but he must know something I don't?!
We sat and exchanged looks for a while and then I left him to it. It's not the first time we've met, I've seen him a few times lately.

Hope his handsome face sticks around.
