Day 55

Today I am thankful for all the yummy food up here. Our whole family is so thankful for all the good food up here in byron. For those of you who haven't had the pleasure of a food lecture from my HEALTHY husband our family is all about sugar free, fermented, raw, broths & raw milk. We struggle at home to find our ideal produce and it is nearly impossible to go out & eat anywhere as a family, or buy the odd snack, but not up here!! We have just bought ice blocks, mousse, raw milk, raw chocolate (chilli and lime flavour) activated muesli bars for the kids, tomato juice & sourdough bread. Now we are off to enjoy it all!!

Day 54

Today I am thankful for the best meal I have ever had. We had just arrived in Byron and had not had time to go abs buy and cook dinner. So we took the kids out to dinner ( which was a nightmare) BUT I had the BEST stir fry I think was ever made. It was called a 'bikini bowl' and the description said it contained over 12 types of veges, chilli and Ginger, far out it was delicious!!

day 54

Today I am thankful for a lovely refuge. We are into our holiday today and spent 8 hours in the car driving up the coast. We have stopped at a friends house who are out of town and it is so nice to be somewhere homely, where the kids have toys to play with and they are very excited to be here. We are so thankful to our friends for letting us crash their house!

day 53

Today I am thankful for weddings. I am at a great friends wedding and seeing get so happy marrying the man of her dreams is amazing!! Witnessing people start their lives together is so special. We are having a great time here, we are sitting on a fun table and having stacks if kid free fun!!

day 52

Today I am thankful for a nice long soak in the bath after a long day. All day I have been busy packing for holidays (yey!!!) and have now set off, staying at mum and dads on the way. Mum could see I was tired and ran me a nice lavender bath. I now feel totally relaxed and already feel like I am On holiday mode.

day 51

Today I am thankful for finding Darryn's shoe. It may be trivial, but I am so glad I didn't have to spend ages looking for it tomorrow. I would have never found it! The problem was that last thursday we had one of oscars friends coming over and I could not be bothered cleaning the house, so I got a washing basket (or 2) and put all our junk in it and tucked it safely out of view. Then I totally forgot what I had done and could not work out why so many items had gone missing. Time was slowly ticking by and we really needed to find his shoe (only 1 which made it even more frustrating) and tomorrow was the day I was going to have to turn the house upside down to go looking for it.


Ps..... Probably the thing I am most thankful for today is meeting my friends new little bub, so sweet an beautiful I had such a nice cuddle of her, I love newborn babies!!

day 50

Today I am thankful for flower buds. Outside our kitchen window we have a lovely tree, I think it's a camelia tree. At the moment it's got lots of buds all over it, so soon I guess it will be on full bloom. The buds are just the start of lovely things to come, they are the start of something to look forward to. They are small, but full of potential.
