~ winter holidays ~



 School holidays are here.
It's been chilly...grey...drizzly.
Weather for crafting and baking.  
  Board games and bored games.
Walks along deserted beaches.
Colouring, writing, gardening, escaping for coffee.
Masterchef, Disney movies, One Direction and ipods.
Sleep-overs, communal dinners and picnics inside.
Mess making and imaginative play.
Adventures at the salmon ponds.
A wander through MONA.
Time together.
Doing lots.
Doing nothing.

Being us.

What have you been up to?
Have you been to MONA?

  1. That holiday sounds uncannily similar to ours. Happy days.

    I love MONA. LOVE it. And everything if stands for. I can't wait for the new exhibition, Theatre of the World(?) opening soon.
    Do you love it?

    1. Totally love it
      Love that we can dip in and out
      And love how proud I feel when I hear people raving about Tassie because of it!

  2. Oh wow, I just love, love, love the first photo. The salmon pond seems to be quite popular this school holiday, as I keep seeing posting about it! I haven't been to the museum since it opened. Time to revisit.

    1. I'm always in awe of home-schoolers - I'd never have the patience

I'd love to hear from you - in fact it will probably make my day
