Spring has sprung!

It's the first day of spring down under and I'm thrilled! Like most this is my favourite season of the year. Today is a gorgeous 21 degrees celcius. My husband has just begun his 7 week vacation from work and as we're not going away on a big holiday this year I am going to put him to good use at home and do some much needed spring cleaning and sprucing. Soccer season has finished and finally we as a family can come out of hibernation and dust off the bbq. Happy Spring season fellow southern hemisphereians and happy fall up north :)









I also HAD to mention, being the proud mum I am, my son's soccer team are the premier grand champions for their age/grade this year. They won their grand final match on saturday morning after extra time, going into a penalty shoot out and my son scored the winning goal! :)



GO WILLIAM AND GO WINSTON BEARS!!

Congratulations, and what a handsome son you have. I know you are bursting with pride. Mine is not yet in sports but I know it's coming. Happy Spring, by the way. We are feeling what seems to be Autum here in Texas. Thanks, Heidi

What a gorgeous spring montage. If I had such pretty linen to hang on the line I would photograph it too!
Congratulations Winston Bears. I bet your heart was in your mouth when it went down to the penalty shootout. How lovely that your son go to to be the hero for the day. Is he still beaming?
