JJ might not be bothered about his kitchen for now but his little friends love it and so do I! 🥰
.
I’ve been badgering Greig for ages about painting our kitchen and he’s not keen. Have you done it? Only tell me good stories if you have! 🎨 🖌

Ok, let’s talk all things balloon garlands! I feel like quiet a few of you were invested in the making of this. They are now my most favourite thing to make! They’re easier than I thought and balloons are surprisingly really hard wearing! 🎈
.
Photo 1 was Friday. Our first party. We had constructed it on the Thursday night and treated it like the fragile ballon baby we thought it was. Pic 2 is Saturday morning after it had spent the night outside! 😳 I was fully expecting to come down stairs and for it to be have either blown away or popped! Pic 3 is Sunday morning after a second night outside. It needed a few repairs before Sunday’s party, nearly all the gold had popped and it def wasn’t looking fresh but it perked up with a few additions! I actually think I like Sunday’s the best after I added more bulk. Pic 4 is Thursday night after we had put it all together in the lounge room. ✨
.
Basically in summary, balloons are really durable. It’s easier than you might think to make a fun, affordable statement piece and I need to throw more parties so I can make more fun balloon creations! 🎉✨

This past weekend our little sausage turned 1! I just can’t believe it’s been a whole year since this little guys changed our lives forever. 👶🏼✨
.
It’s by far been the best year of our lives. So we spent the weekend with the people we love the most. Hot tubbing, going down the slip ‘n’ slide and eating all the cake with bubbles galore and a few balloon animals for good measure! 🎉💦🎈

Hello! 👋🏼 how are you all? Hasn’t this weekend been a lovely little slice of Summer! ☀️
.
Lots of sunshine, paddling pool action, a bit of cricket and gardening with a few BBQ’s thrown in for good measure. 🌼🌿
.
Good thing I’m well rested because I’ve got 4 small gatherings to pull together this coming week! 🎉Our little guy is going to be one! It only feels like yesterday he arrived in such a whirlwind! 😳
.
Also how have I not had any echinacea in my garden before? I LOVE them! Such little joy bombs! 🌼
