weekend love
































Our weekend began at great heights. With each passing hour it deteriorated. Tired bodies, tired minds, TIRED. Isn't that just life? Keepin it real? So you don't get too ahead of yourself? Solo parenting is exhausting enough when it's just your usual routine. Throw in Christmas, lists that are far too long, and a looming organisational deadline that will see us leave this bloody hot-cold-hot-colder-cold weather in our wake and head for the beach. With proper, constant, EVEN temperatures. Sunshine, swimming, family, relaxation.

I am expecting the wheels to fall off sometime around Thursday. I am praying I can make it to Sunday. I think I can, I think I can..

So I hope your weekend was far more enjoyable? Do tell.

Linking up with the lovely ladies here and here

*Despite the shitfulness of the weekend's events, I DID tick off my list and throw it in the bin. Albeit in the wee hours of this morning..
*DIY nativity scene found at Veronica's (who is having some archive trouble at the moment), from here
*Red and white pattern covered hair ties in Ruby's plaits gifted from beautiful friends, also from the lovely Veronica!

  1. Start chanting 'I know I can... I know I can!' I love your pictures Tahnee :) Your reindeer stamping the other day inspired my own Weekend Love with my daughter Sunny! Isn't there something magical about fairy lights!

  4. Tired is right! I gave Ruby the choice whether or not she wanted to go to kinder today. She chose to go, but I can a lot of movie watching over the next week! I hope you find some rest. Sometimes the lists need to just go and bugger off don't they.
    Your house looks so magical in all its Christmas glory. Gorgeous, gorgeous photo's. Is Cole cross in the picture of Ruby holding the cushion? He's folding his arms like Jenson when he's cross, and then he says' "Look at my face!". So cute.
    And those hair tyes. Adorable.
    Hang in there hon, you'll be swimming before you know it (perhaps in more ways than one) xoxoxo

  5. Two many days of burning the candle are both ends has left me feeling a little jaded...it's not the festive season that is doing my head in but the million other things I kept adding to that never ending list.
    Cute nativity, must print one off for my lot. I seriously NEED to find some glass baubles too :)
    Hope your week is a little gentler Tahnee.
