Holiday Heaven.

It was probably hard to tell, but last week I wasn't around. I went on holiday.


We drove almost ten hours up the coast to a little town near Byron Bay to spend time with hubby's family. We drove. The whole ten hours. With a child that we don't usually take anywhere that requires being in the car for more than half an hour. The furthest we've ever been is Ikea... so Byron was huge. More on that tomorrow though.

We had the best time. I honestly haven't felt this relaxed since before having Lacey. I feel good. We ate the most delicious food. We watched the sun set. We slept through the sun rising {perfect}. I walked along the beach {okay, I only managed to do that once - I was in holiday mode}. I bought out my inner nerd and played Nintendo DS and managed to complete two whole games {Professor Layton and Super Mario Bros - Dork, anyone?} We visited good friends. Lacey ate truckloads of mango. A whole heap of avocado. She danced each night as the sun went down {as you can see above}. We were surrounded by animals, and a river and a snake even made an appearance {get your mind out of the gutter}. Ick.

I've never seen Lacey so happy. There was even a day when she didn't cry even once. Do you know how much of a miracle that is with a toddler? It's their main form of communication, you know? We had the best time ever.


So what have you been up to my friend? How was your weekend?

A huge thank you to those that have responded to my survey. If you haven't you can do so here.
