Poppy and Thrify Finds

Artful Blogging and Daisy Walking

We have been watching The Good Life. (So good!)

We have been listening to She and Him Volume Three. (Also good!)

We’ve been juicing lots.

We’ve been kept warm on chilly nights with crochet blankets and a lovely heater, lent by a kind neighbour.

We have been honoured to be featured in Artful Blogging magazine!

We have also made it to the top 26 Home and Creative blogs in Voices of 2013!! (So chuffed!)

We’ve had a few nice op-shop finds.

Katie and Daisy have been enjoying walks in the Autumn sunshine, with Katie’s mum and puppa Molly.

Reuben has been reading Smith Journal.

We have very almost moved off the floor and back into a real bed!!

What’s been happening in your world lately?

This Week Looks Like This…

Painting

Don’t worry, we have the very best help on hand:

Daisy in Renovating Mess

Poppy Painting

Hopefully we’ll be back soon, with some kind of progress to show for a week’s worth of paint stripping, sanding and painting.

In the meantime, we hope things are peachy with you!

We have been really, really enjoying the cooler, autumn weather!
