a chair for the princess

Yesterday, we made a trip to the recycling center and found this high chair. It is in amazing condition. We seem to always have good luck finding things for Isabella there. Now she can sit with us instead of on our laps for dinner.
The trip to Wellington was lovely. We had such a nice time visiting with friends and Matt's show went really well. Whenever I visit there, it has been sunny and warm (a fluke) and everything about the place makes me want to live there. One day in the future, perhaps.
I woke at 3am completely wired, thinking about Christmas presents of all things. I better start making things. Any ideas for gifts to give the in laws?

new addiction

I have been neglecting my blog due to my new addiction, face book. I don't spend much time on the computer at all, but now it seems I am happy to stay up that extra hour just to spend time looking up friends from kindergarten to high school. Oh so sad, but so much fun.



I have had some jewellery up at a local cafe for a bit and it seems to be going well. I haven't sold any necklaces, maby I should drop the prices, but the earrings seem to be flying out the door. So last week I made some more earrings to put up and with in a few days most of them have sold! Everyone seems to like the bubble gum earrings. So I better make some more.
We are heading to Wellington this weekend because Matt is playing at a punk fest there. I am so excited for us to have a break from the day to day stuff. And we get to visit some good friends, have yummy breakfast and do some much needed retail therapy. For all of you with the long weekend, hope you have a good one.

sun, veg and bubs

What happened to the week?! All of a sudden it's Friday again. I don't know how that happens. Today, I managed to get outside and do a bit of gardening in the sun. I've planted some herbs, cucumber and zuchini so far. Not much room for it, but we will see how it goes. Isabella spent some time under the umbrella and she managed to help me weed a bit too.
