It feels like winter has been going on forever! It has also been very full. I always find term 3 so hectic as everything gets crammed in before the end of the year.
Simon and I were in the city the other day looking at tiles and stone for our upcoming floor & kitchen reno and decided to stop into The Grounds for a coffee and breakfast. It's been years since we had stopped in. It used to be a real favourite! The current theme was Winter Wonderland. It was pretty in places but I feel The Grounds is looking a little tired and dated and could use a little refresh.
We also celebrated some family birthdays. Simon and Finn turned another year older so there were lunches and dinners out to mark the occasions.
Jasper is currently in year 12 and doing his trials. He is having a year of "last times".
It has been a little sad to see some things coming to end. He had his final performance at the Conservatorium. We have really enjoyed watching his band and solo performances over the past with the school.
We've been trying to get out for walks when the never ending amount of rain Sydney has been getting stops for a while.
I've added some chocolate tones in the furnishings around the house for winter. It feels very cosy and perfect for the season.
How has your winter been? Stay warm! x
