Down but not out

This week has been flu season at our house, myself included.  To tell you the truth I am still shattered, I haven't had the fu in a long time and definitely not keen to repeat this.  Very thankful for a dear husband who managed to take a day off work to do all the town stuff like groceries, and an amazing friend who bought us round dinner last night.  It made such a difference to my day!  Thanks lovely lady!

In other news ... We were given thee beautiful babies earlier in the week, the girl (foreground) is called Fluff and the boy is Buzz.  So far they are doing great - they will the boys to take to school for pets day in late October and I ill make sure I have gripe water in hand incase we get the dreaded six week bloat.

Risky business

My happy heart  took some filling in this past weekend with amazingly wonderful  friends and fellowship.  Two friends took time to be with us and our family, be a part of our day and night.  Words seems so little to express how much it meant to me.  I love having people around, I love hosting and cooking for others, so to get a chance to do this, was a blessing.  We have a sleep out, so at least one of our guests didn't get woken at the  crack of dawn by my darlings after a late night, and to be honest, the kids were kids, but I thought they did well, considering they are not that used to it.  Yesterday afternoon once the rain cleared we headed down to the beach to let them run off some steam, it was great to get some fresh air.  Friday night we played Risk ... Those who know me know that I'm not the world's most competitive person, but somehow I managed to win ... Looking forward to playing again with the same great company!!
