A day at Smiths

Typical day at Smiths :

I wake up before anyone else. Read book looking at the day arising. Make coffee for J and wake him up. Talking/planning the day even though we know it is going to be the same as yesterday and the same tomorrow. Walk Frida on beach. Reading, hanging out time. Lunch. Read some more, maybe a nana nap. Canoeing to other side of lake (with Frida of course). Swim in ocean, enjoying wonderful views. Canoe back. Get fish or meat in local fishery or butcher. Shower and change for din-dins. Time for snack and a vino. Bbq and wonderful salad. Cheese board. Lots of lovely conversations.... Night night.

Oh I wish every day was like this hehe....  

Holiday

I have been quiet over the Christmas and NY period. I had planned to be in touch, to update you regularly on our escapades. That did not happen...
We drove to Sydney and then got extremely busy... Saw all our friends and we both loved that. We really do miss them all... Of course every time we see them is followed by the discussion ‘do we need to live in Sydney’... Oh well we will see – and no we are not moving this year! We are happy to stand still here for a while... We saw The North Shore Bunch and also the Eastern Suburbs mob. Luke and Mia’s wedding on the 28^th was fabulous, walks in Vaucluse, dinners and coffees galore. Maybe in hindsight Sydney was a bit too busy... However we loved seeing all our friends so was all worth it. Then we went to Smith’s Lake and just chilled out and did sweet nothing. This really was the relaxing part of the holiday. Reading, walks, good food and wine (we popped into Hunter Valley on the way up!) and lots of talking about the year ahead. This year is going to be a great year for us!!!
Over the next week or so I promise to update you on what we did over the hols. x
