A while between posts

Lily & Sage picnicking in the Subi

 The kids are well, growing more personality every moment, Sage is Lily's permanent shadow, and follows most of her orders happily, although there are frequent squabbles the do love to play togeher. Sometimes leaving me alone to sew for the afternoon. Hence my ease up on the blogging.

I have been busy, busy, creating my new blog simmonestar & online shop, and also preparing for my first market on December 10. I am so enjoying being crafty, it fills many of my waking & dreaming moments.

Cecile & I reunited after 20 years!

 Stellan and I had the delight of attending Cecile's exhibition at Gasworks last week. It was so wonderful to meet her after 20 years of distance. Stell was amazed to see the similarities between us. It was truly lovely to share such a special night with Cecile, her found object sculptures oozed personality. Looking forward to more catch ups in the near future.

We also had a sleep over in Port Melbs, and celebrated Lilian's bday. It was really good to feel the unity among the family, and go to sleep hearing Stell, Ek , Roger & Lilian chatting together and drinking milo, reminded me of holidays in the old Tassie home.

August also marked the date of Ingram's 30 bday, so much we miss that lovely man, may his energy & enthusiasm live on in all of us.

Liam & Sage play camping :)

Many playdates with friends in the past weeks & it's very sweet to see Sagey and LiLi getting along, and Zo & Lil sharing a hug :)

It's the weekend tomorrow, Yay Stell is home for a couple of days, we may go for a day out on Puffing Billy tomorrow, must wait to see what the weather will bring.

Hopefully sunshine saturday
