I'm long overdue for a lately post! So much has happened in the past  couple of months including our eldest son getting engaged which is so exciting! We've also been through a very difficult time as a family with Symon's mum in hospital... so there has been a lot of tears and our hearts have ached, but life goes on despite and there have been many things to be thankful for during this time. So as we take one day at a time, here are some of the things we are so thankful for...

Symon and I recently celebrated 23 years married. Love this guy so much.

Delicious things have been created... and consumed... 

We joined the gym! Watch this space... 😂 

And finally, our youngest has started playing netball. None of our other kids have ever played netball before, so it was so much fun to watch her first game and see her team win 14 to 6! So proud - she played so well for a beginner!
