Cotter & the Coffee Fairy

School holidays have come to end. Sniff!

I've loved having Harry at home and I must confess, I've enjoyed a break from the daily school run. We braved the grey skies and rounded off the hols with a bbq breakfast at Cotter Dam.

 

Canberra is ablaze with Autumn colour and Cotter was blanketed in gold.

 

 

Can I just say how GREAT it is to be dressing in layers again. Hello scarves and jackets and beanies!!!

 

 

The picnic grounds at Cotter have some stunning locals. Love a bbq at the best of times but most of all when there's a bit of a chill in the air.

 

 

I made the cardinal sin of forgetting to pack the milk to make our coffees and lo and behold, just as I'd resigned myself to a caffeine free breakfast, a vision on four wheels rocked up in the carpark.

Thank you Coffee Fairy!!!

 

 

It seemed too good to be true but sure enough, Our Dream Cafe came to the rescue. Couldn't quite believe a mobile cafe was all the way out at Cotter!

 

 

Canberrans...if you want a caffeine hit at your next function, give this guy a bell. I highly recommend him! It was really, really great coffee! Totally made our breakfast! After our little feast we went for a stroll along the creek.

 

 

There was a lot of rock plonking and exploring and general chit chat.

 

 

Love spending time with dear friends in such a beautiful spot. Am determined to get out and about a lot more this year. How was your weekend, long or otherwise?

Beautiful Sunday

Mama went home this morning...Le sigh.

 

 

That would be me on the right...grimacing. Partly at the thought of not having Mum around and partly because I'm in excruciating pain from radiation burns. I'm so immensely grateful that Mum came down to help. Not looking forward to managing on my own this week. Sniff!

Kate & I had a girly breakfast in Manuka after we'd popped Mum on a plane.

Ahhhh Urban Pantry...we wuv you to pieces!

 

 
 
 
 
Seriously stripey today...camouflages bulky bandaged boobage.
 
 

 

Pearls and a beanie...something only my baby sister could pull off.

 

 
 
 

 

Tummies full, caffeine in our bloodstream...time for a teeny tiny shop stop. Spring colours have hit the stores and oh my! Loving them all!

Let's start with Sportscraft...

 

 

 
 

 

A little bit of Zara...

 

 

 

 

 

And the go-to stores for gorgeous kidswear...Zara Kids

 

 

 

And Seed...

 

 

 

 

 

Katie is on her way back to Sydney and I'm curled up on the couch for a very quiet afternoon. Hope you're having a Beautiful Sunday!
