i've been all wrapped up in my 'sis' this week - hanging out knitting, sewing, playing with the kids. we love having her here. i overheard yindi telling someone "bina is my mumma's sista", and well, i kind of introduce her as that too. my french sister :)
we had a grand little adventure last weekend - off we set up to squam - (no carseats in the back woohoo!), it was really fun to be amidst the arty vibe there, see lovely things and meet lovely people!
(hi francesca!)
my skirts almost sold out! i was so happy after all those weeks of sewing...worrying about wether they'd sell or not! we were busy all night long and i LOVED seeing the skirts on their new owners...so much funner than mailing them off in an envelope ;)
i had the best nights sleep EVER that night in our motel room - my first child free night in over 2 years which felt like such a luxury. in the morning we hung out down by the lake before venturing slowly home...
on the way home we stopped at yard sales, flea markets, interesting towns, shops-with-tiny-things-i-can-never-normally-go-into, went out for thai food AND saw a movie. oh blissful freedom!
love having my sista here. more adventures to come.
ps i've just listed my 'leftover' squam skirts into my etsy. ready to ship! custom skirts will be available again in a few weeks time...cheers!
Oh my goodness, a child free night...I'm so happy for you.

DRAT! That M/L skirt is super cute but I don't think my already 32 inch waist will fit into it through another two trimesters..... I'm anxious for you to start back up with the custom ones!

It looks so great, what a wonderful time!! Frank and I went away child free for the first time in 7 years, a couple of weeks ago and it was awesome, but the freedom felt so strange! :)
