Flowers of Floriade

Floriade was as beautiful as ever this year. Spring is very lovely in Canberra with all of the deciduous tree's in full bloom and it's nice to head out on the lake and wander the tulips of Floriade to mark the season. We had Stuart and Michelle visit with Mum and Dad as well as Courtney for a weekend so I had two lovely visits. I took the kids up on the ferris wheel which they all loved. They had a good laugh at me feeling some vertigo up the top, it felt very high! It was lovely to be together in beautiful surrounds. Some of the highlights of living near the capitol. 

Glenburn Heritage Trail

I'll be forever grateful for a sister who is excited about life and has great ideas that just require me to say yes! With the big Milford Track hike just 6 months away Courtney had the suggestion that we try and fit as many hikes in as we can in preparation. She is what I'd call a seasoned hiker, it's been a minute for me but I love doing it and even Finley was keen to join us on the first of many hikes together. 

Tis' the Season

                               

This Christmas season was probably the most magical that I can remember. After two years of cancelled plans, Covid lockdowns and home schooling I had lots of motivation to reflect on how I wanted life to look once the world opened up to us again. I really wanted to get out there and have lots of fun and I felt this really strong pull to connect with old friends and new.
