Everyday Moments

Craig was recently on the Sunshine Coast for a few days for work and teased me about his lunch choices LOL

I love the Pixar totes from Kmart!

Some cute earrings ready for Christmas also from Kmart.

Clay was fortunate to be gifted tickets to the World of Magic show again this year, so asked Torrie to join him and Craig :)  They had a great time at the show and then he took them to Macca's afterwards.

Tabs and Torrie brought me a present - A HP wand with lip balm on the end - how cute!?!?

I brought Clay the Lego advent calendar and he's opened a few windows - the figurines are wearing Christmas sweaters LOL

Colour Run

We've had a lot of rain & storms lately, but luckily the weather held off today and Clay's school got to do their colour run this afternoon :)

Clay was in the top 10 fund-raisers, so got to "slime " a teacher of his choice and he chose his teacher LOL
