Just a few things

July, Friday, end of school term
holidays, sleeping in, spending time with  my little school girl every day and all day

end of school discos, parent teacher interviews, magic 200-word certificates

 

playing with food colour pens, hiding them in my lovely new surprise pencil case (you are awesome Cat!)

beautiful winters days, walking to school and holding hands, walking to school and chatting away

baking cupcakes, decorating cupcakes, sending them off to school as an end of term treat 

 

hottie exhibition,  Friday night celebrations and yay for the weekend with the boy home

 

How’s your day been?  

Hope it gets even better lovely friends! (BIG hi to new friends joining along)

Happy July ♥
