A Great Birthday!!

Well last week it was my birthday, that is right, I have now turned the big 24, and yes, only 1 more year before I can rent a car haha. For my birthday Ben kept everything very hush hush, and although I teased him about getting me a puppy (a very impractical gift) he got me something both lovely and practical, a bike. But he also got to go with the bike, helmets for me and Elizabeth, a bike rack for the car and fitted the back of his bike rack with a seat for Elizabeth, which she just loves. And aside from a short ride to test out my wonderful present we had a lovely restful day at home with lots of family time after our time away at the pastors conference without Elizabeth, yes you read right, we left our little angel with my parents and had a few nights by ourselves at the conference. So my birthday came just in time and we had a great day playing and resting together. And of course no Good birthday is complete without an ice-cream cake, and it was so good!!

My beautiful bike, we have called her Tiffany because of the colour.

The yummy ice-cream cake Ben made me. 

Playing Outside

Elizabeth loves being outside, like really, she LOVES being outside. She cries and throws little tantrums when it is time to come inside and she spends a large amount of her time inside going to the back door and looking out, waiting for us to say yes you can go play out the back, but really how can we deny her when she looks so happy...

Spoilt or what...

How lucky am I, 2 mornings in a row I have been blessed with breakfast in bed! And just incase you can't make out the picture, that is a warm banana muffin, a hot milo and a piece of mars bar slice, so I have to say, spoilt or what! What an amazing husband I have.

C c c cold!!!!

Ok, so I know it is only April, and I know that some of you may be shocked to read that we have put our winter quilt on the bed, but even more exciting than that, our electric blanket has also made it onto the bed! I know, I know, it's not that cold, and I would tend to agree, but my cold little toes definitely disagree! And just so you get a better idea, as I am writing this, it is 11 degrees, which is definitely cooler than last week, so the only thing that comes after winter bedding... lighting the fire, bring on winter!
