Back to school 2021 x

The obligatory first day back at school photo.

Jasper is in year 8 and Noah in year 3.

It felt strange that Finn wasn't in the photo and heading back to school.

But new adventures ahead for him!

I hope everyone has a wonderful year ahead x

Around here lately.....

How are you? Wow, it's the middle of February and we are well and truly back into routine.

It's funny how the school term has such a fast pace! I thought I would do a bit of a photo dump and catch you up on what's been happening around here lately.....

The boys on their first day back at school.

Finn year 12, Jasper year 7 and Noah year 2. An exciting year ahead!

I'm giving the house a little update here and there as I like to do every few months.

This can consist of changing up some prints, some new bedlinen or moving the plants around to different spots for a fresh look.

Like most of Sydney we had a deluge of rain last week. We lost power for 2 days and still only have half the electricity back. It's supposed to be all back on by the weekend. Fingers crossed!

Due to the rain we have been doing mainly indoor activities. A new free form rock climbing place recently opened near us that the boys love. Also Noah's art set that he received for Christmas has been getting quite a work out.

But the main thing that has been taking up most of our time and thoughts is the extension we are currently doing to the house. We are creating a studio apartment/office space on top of our garage.

It's exciting to watch it go up and we are really looking forward to utilising the extra space.

Stay tuned for updates!

The Before Photo....

We're still a couple of months away from completion.

Anyway that's what we've been up to lately! How about you? x

Our last week of Summer holidays

Our gorgeous summer holidays have come to an end. Reality and routine starts today with the boys back at school and all activities starting up again.

We've had an amazing 2 months together as a family and are well and truly rested and ready to get into the year ahead. It's so funny to feel like the year is only starting and it's almost February!

Here are a few photos from our last week...........

We had another trip to Byron, celebrated Australia Day, popped into the divine Island Luxe in Bangalow, enjoyed beach days and quiet breakfasts on the balcony and some surfing in the rain.

Bliss!

How was your week?

Back to school - lunch box ideas

One more week and the kids go back to school. I'm pretty organised and have ticked new uniforms, school shoes, stationery supplies and new lunch boxes off my list.

I am loving these personalised lunch boxes from Stuck on You. They are a great size and the new range of colours are gorgeous. I always love to have the boys names front and centre on all of their school stuff as there is less chance of it being left in the playground and ending up in lost property. Plus the fact that the lunch boxes are insulated is wonderful as their lunches will stay cooler and fresher for longer.

I also picked out these matching pencil cases. They are a great size and can fit all of their pens, pencils, rubbers etc. Even a ruler.

Now that I have the school supplies sorted my mind has turned to lunch box ideas.

I'm always full of enthusiasm at the start of the year to provide new and delicious lunches.
Something different from the same old sandwich I fall back on.
I came across some great ideas on Pinterest.

Here are my favourites -
