Did you have a good weekend? We spent our weekend close to home my favourite type of weekend.  

I went to the baby shower, played some fun games, ate lots too especially my cheese ball.

Then on Sunday I tidied up the veggie patch, it looks much better now, while the girls had fun paddling in the little pool.

Today it was back to the routine, a spot of baking chocolate slice and honey biscuits.

My goal for the week is to either make Christmas cards or sew presents. I want Christmas to be relaxing so I must get organised.  If I keep telling myself it should keep me motivated, I'm going to try my best.
