Keen? I might just have to put my own name in for the draw. For previous softies, go here. For more crafty makings, go here. ...

Oh Northland, I love you!

By PaisleyJade - Monday, January 28, 2013
Today is Northland Anniversary Day - the perfect day to celebrate the beautiful place that we live. We needed to pick up something early this morning, so turned our pick-up trip into a beach trip with the family. The girls had a swim and played in the sand while the guys went for a snorkel... Then there was a bit of wrestling in...

Road Trippin

By PaisleyJade - Saturday, January 19, 2013
. We love a good road trip - apart from going somewhere different as a family, it's a chance for Symon and I to usually hold a good conversation in the front of the car while we drive, without too many inturruptions.  There was the occasional, "stop him from singing to the music" or "I'm feeling like I'm going to be sick" shrilled...

Loving...

By PaisleyJade - Thursday, January 17, 2013
I wholeheartedly believe that no matter what is happening in your life, there is always something that you can be thankful for... no matter how simple it is.   We are soaking up the last few days of our summer holidays before we return back to work next week, and the children to school the following.  Our mission these holidays was to firstly, try to...
