post-yuletide musings...

I am lying in bed feeling the cool southerly coming in the window with such relief - I always whinge about the heat in summer, but with the kiddo, I truly hate it and long for winter! And reflecting on Christmas and all of the fun and festivities. Safe to say, our little girl was very spoilt!


Evelyn's new Maileg ballerina bunny is looking very happy in her new home...



Definitely some of the best presents she received - the crayons and the blocks! Thanks Santa!


I was equally spoilt - gorgeous new watch from V! Absolutely love it


My mum knows me so well ❤️


Headed out for drinks with some lovely girlfriends on Sunday - we decided to hit up the new Pepes beach bar. Sadly it wasn't great. We thoroughly enjoyed the rose (although found the wine pourings bizarrely teeny!), but the service was quite abysmal.


The first lot of food we received was nice - sadly the second lot of sliders (for which we waited 45minutes) were charred and cold. The staff weren't exactly very helpful. I don't think I would hurry back.


Stick this one in a cardboard box with some crayons and she's good for half an hour 😂

So here's my embarrassing confession - I am still on my Provisional drivers licence! Please keep your giggles to yourselves. It's due for renewal in early 2015, and so I am making it my quasi-resolution to sit my full licence test. I don't normally "do" New Years resolutions, but this one just seems sort of sensible really.

Have you got plans for tomorrow night? Any New Years resolutions?
xoxo

    1. Give it a go Hun, could have just been teething! But I'd highly recommend the new small bar The Throsby. Let me know if you need a drinking partner 😉 x

  5. Ew, those sliders should have ended up in the bin, not on a customer's table!!

    I too am on my Ps, have been on the green ones for 2 years and turn 34 in a few months. I got my L's when I was 16 then didn't bother going for my Ps til I was 29 (and 36 weeks pregnant)!
