grateful...

excuse the quality of this picture taken on my phone..
Today I am grateful for time spent pottering about op-shops with my littlest.  We could (and do) spend hours just hanging out here...

Take a visit over to Maxabella's and join in...

  6. My regret is that I could never get the Tsunamis hooked on op shops. "It smells," said Max. "There are too many dresses in my face," said Cappers. "Wah!" said The Badoo. Sigh. x

  8. I love pics of little kids reading! They're one of my most favourite things... always reminds me of my childhood and the great adventures I had whilst immersed in my story travels!

    I love op shopping too. I've got to get to my favourite op shop this week as I just noticed I'm about to wear a hole through the seat of my favourite jeans - catastrophe!! I always buy my jeans from the op shop as they cost about $6, look brand new, and they're pre-shrunk!! I know they'll basically stay the way they are after I've started to wear and wash them.

    Happy weekend!

  13. How sweet is he. I dragged my littlest around town running errands with my parents today and she normally is pretty good but today.....Wow what a little whiner. By the time we hit the last store I was ready to crack a bottle of wine open. when I got home I was telling Phil about my day and he laughed,argh!

  17. That is adorable. Seems like he knows what he likes too. I love doing this with my boys too. I'm hoping they'll appreciate character when they're older. Pruxxx
