zeke and zara + T4

it was so cool seeing these two together again, zeke was so excited for days saying, "zara zara zara" and on the day he kept saying it all morning, then when we arrived it took him a good half hour to warm up, truely it can be a little painful
{dude you've been excited for days}
do your children do the same thing???????
and other times he's not like that.........
anyway once he got over himself was so cute watching them, play, laugh, argue, run around.......
we just love visiting, and zeke has still been talking non stop about zara.........cute

i'm thankful for beautiful fabrics, they make me feel inspired, creative and just happy
i found a beautiful lounge suite with the most amazing fabric, i wouldn't of looked twice
but the FABRIC, {it's like a piece of art on its own} photos to come next week.............
seems like a strange thing to be thankful 4 but i truely love fabrics, patterns, textures and
anything old at the moment........

enjoy your thursday

happenings in my world {zeke's birthday} + T4

my little man zeke turned 3 on saturday 03-04-2008, it has gone by so so fast it's not funny

i've loved every moment with him and feel truely blessed to have him in my life
my life is richer for having him in it..........

now i do feel a wee bit like an unorganized mum, we had his party on sunday and i got NO photos....
how bad is that!!!!!
i went around afterwards and took some photos and edited bits out so it looks a wee bit nice,
everything is on the video which will be great to watch but have no idea how to get any of it on here.....so here are a few photos

i had fun with the food, and am disappointed i didn't take photos, we did on white spoons mango salsa with prawns and coriander, asian salad with crunchy noodles and sesame seeds in noodle boxes and individual triffles above......
and it was fun watching zeke jumping on his new trampoline and having fun with the other kids

+ T4

happenings in my world + T4

something i've collected this week is this very cool plant pot, a gaint teacup, how cool is it?????
the saucer is actually attached with a hole at the bottom of the cup for drainage I LOVE IT.............
so me and zeke went off to bunnings to fill it with something colourful {couldn't go past the yellow of course}............
i have it sitting on the outdoor table, it was cheap and in a shop you would least expect, i think i'm going to go and buy some more, this one is charcoal and they did have black too.......

happenings in my world + T4

i seem to always have something on the go either sewing, painting, cooking doing a diy
and of course i'm very very noisy and love to know what everyone else is up too in their world
either work, home or holidaying so thought id add this into this blogpost.......

i've been seeing this chevron pattern EVERYWHERE cushions, rugs, fabric you name it
it's so simple and i love it......i've had this canvas for about 3 years and thought why not paint the pattern myself so i taped it up and away i painted.....

don't look too close it's not even....although i do love that it's not perfect
{ps how cute is the little girl on the swing????}
