I know I've been horribly negligent of my lovely blogging friends... and my blog for that matter. In my defence, both sets of grandparents have visited in the last 4 weeks, in addition to some lovely friends. I have waved goiodbye to the last of them this morning. So we have essentially been busy catching up, spending time together (catering for and accommodating 8 and 10 instead of 6!!), settling back into the school routine and some 'new sports' that the girls have taken on... and basically just concentrating on family for a bit.
I did manage to squeeze this one in, in between visitors though...
{through my eyes}
.... for the latest Colour Room palette:
I never have a problem putting orange and blue together (some of you may already know that! hehe)... but the magenta kinda threw me at first. The idea was to use a small amount of it I think.
I just LOVE all the Prima Mistables atm... expect to see more of them! :)
Sadly, my Canon had a little unexpected sabatical too! I don't know why, but I just haven't touched it for a couple of weeks... and missed soooo many family opportunities. : (
Hoping it wasn't holding too much of a grudge, I let it out for a play yesterday. So, in pictorial form, here are some of the things we've been up to:
A bit of water play....
A bit of togetherness...
A bit of this...
(yes, imagine her delight when she saw her name on them!)
A bit of that...
(Claire now spends more time on her hands than on her feet! lol)
And a LOT of this...
I won't bang on about it too much, but I have lost 10kg in 5 weeks!!
I love feeling fitter and more motivated.
I love that I want to do more.
I love that the kids are seeing a healthier me.
I love that fitness is back in my everyday again ..... for good.
Hope you have all been well.
Bye for now,
Jules
