We have had a busy couple of weeks, the hubster took 2 weeks holiday we
loaded up the car and headed off to Melbourne for a week, i can be a tad
cheeky when needed so when our son sent us a message asking where we were
how could I not send him this message in reply
We caught trams everyday, they were frequent and less stressful than
driving anywhere, love staying in St Kilda, where the trams run every 15 minutes
all ways good until it became 'peak hour', the kids shopped up a
storm
we visited Ikea, my new favourite store, I was lucky enough to
bring a Raskog trolley home with me for my belated birthday present
we visited Amitie Textiles, I love this store, bright, airy
and full of delicious goodies. A starter kit for Georgetown On My Mind,
needles for handquilting and some Aurofil thread 12wt for hand quilting,
some fun fat quarters and a new pattern
trying to find our way back to the DFO outlet on Sunday
the girls went rock climbing at the DFO
I bought a selfie stick (lol)
DS doing his best Karate Kid impersonation
the Melbourne Star
took the girlies to Luna Park on a freezing cold afternoon, they had fun
Melbourne at night
the fire towers at the casino
Every quilter should pay a visit to GJ's in Fairfield
I bought a tagging gun to baste my quilts with, I just need to
locate the teeny plastic tags
the sad drive home
Henry was happy his people came home though
Ive been learning to crochet with the help of you tube and
attic 24, its supposed to be a square not a pear
Ta Da a square (at last)
went to the local library to find a how to crochet book,
all I left with was a broken nail
some lovely wool
today we went on a happy drive to find snow and find snow we did
this was taken in sleet and Black Lake which is between
Cathcart and Bibbenluke
heading towards Bibbenluke
on the Monaro Highway heading towards Nimmitabel
lots more snow the further we went
I drove behind this log truck until the trailer started sliding
from the weight of the logs
we pulled into a very nice mans driveway and the kids had some fun
(on the side of the highway)
its that darn selfie stick again
on the way home
Miss I made a snow angel at the top of Mt Darragh Road
we traveled up this road 2 hours earlier and there was NO SNOW
at all, and this is how it was half way down the Mt Darragh Road
Its was a fantastic afternoon, and I cannot wait to do it again
but this time we will head out in the morning not after lunch
