At my house...

A bit late this week, but that's the kind of week were having. Its a cold wet rainy day here today, so lucky we have our new balloon ball to keep us entertained. I brought the boys this fantastic ball a few weeks ago at the red hill fair from the lovely Gretta of Balloon Balls and I have to say it was one of the best ideas and $15 I have spent in a long time. I will definitely be back for more for Christmas pressies this year!!! Not only is it 'house proof', it stops all those floating balloons that we normally have floating around going pop and if it gets dirty I can just pop it in the wash, perfect!
We're enjoying the harvest from our garden this week, and those passionfruits I blogged about all that time ago, are finally ripening and they are delicious! If anyone has any good passionfruit recipes send them through ;) A couple of batches of passionfruit butter are definitely on the menu.

And with all this cold rainy weather a batch of this super easy sultana and apricot slice is also on the menu with some nice hot cups of sweet tea. Yum!Hope your having a lovely week at your place wherever you may be, and don't forget to check out all the other participants over at Lou's

At my House...

It's going to be a nice calm week, or thats what I keep telling myself. I am working for the 5th day straight tomorrow and then have 4 days off, so hopefully things will start to calm down around here.

I have promised the boys that we can play lots of games after tomorrow...

And maybe even some trampolining if the weather stays nice...
And Lou, you have inspired us to. Whale sandwhiches have been a BIG hit here lately!

Hope your all having lovely calm weeks too, and make sure you pop by Buttons By Lou Lou and check out all the other house too...

Visitors...

Its been a hectic week to say the least, so when sax yelled out we had visitors this morning I had to go and check it out. When heading out the back to see what he was talking about, he told me the 'Horror-Keets' had come to visit and say good morning to him :)

Kids, they certainly know how to put a smile on your face, even in the stress fullest times, and yes it was nice to see we had some visitors come and join us for morning tea on this lovely sunny winter's day
