Rain = cubby houses...............

We are in the middle of our first week of school holidays and have woken up to a sky heavy with rain. So in our first conversations of 'what are we going to do today' the ideas of cubby houses came up. So Juliette started straight away pulling sheets and other necessary items out of the cupboard. Pyjamas hadn't even come off but that is the good thing about holidays isn't it you don't have to get out of your pj's if you don't want to. It looks like the place is set up as a full day retreat. There is books to read, paper to draw on and toys to be played with. What more could you want. We love pyjama days around here......how about you?

Little gift.................

My husband has just come back from a week in Korea and he bought me back a beautiful little gift in an interesting little box.

With a most gorgeous embroidered toggle.

It was a silk fan to add to my growing collection.

I know have 4 of them.

craft hope dolls

Yesterday while waltzing around blogland I read this post at the vintage chica. Then I moved onto the links she had provided for craft hope so now I am getting involved. Doing a little something to make somebody smile. Go over and read all about it. Maybe you can help too.

A weekend outing.......

On the weekend I went to a concert. I haven't been to see a live show for such a long time that I can't even remember the last. I think it was Queens of the Stoneage back in 2002 at the Palais in St.Kilda. I was asked to go and see Alpha Blondy-a very well known french reggae singer. Me I knew nothing about him but the girls who I went with filled me in on all the finer details. Anyway aside from not knowing anything it was fabulous. It was outside at the Tjibaou cultural centre which is one fantastic venue in the daylight and at night. There was a local outfit that stared the evening with their brand of ska/reggae kind of music. They got everybody up dancing but I think that was in anticipation of the headline act. When I got home I vowed to my husband that we needed to do more of these kinds of things. For a little place there is always alot going on, we just need to get up off the couch and get out the door.
