Girls weekend!!

I write as I await my lift that will whisk me away for a girls weekend - 12 girls  in Bunkers Bay _- Dunsborough!!!!  Two night without any family commitments - just lunching, relaxing, a few drinks...it is only today that I actually feel excited - this has been planned for monthsssss - you can probably imagine the emails to and fro just to organise a weekend that all 12 girls could commit to!! 

As a group we go away at least once a year to always to beach shack on the south side of  Mandurah  -but this year marks 10 year since our oldest child started school -and we thought we should celebrate  -  so we decided to ditch the beach house and commit to two night away in more luxurious surrounds!!

A what better way to celebrate than a good meal with great friends so out major organised event for the weekend is lunch today at Wise Winery - has great food,the best ocean view and the wine is not too bad either.  ( are a group we also do lunches around three times a year  - they are long long lunches!!)

I shall be leaving the love of  my life with the boys - he will be busy building a deck and erecting the pool fence  -believe it or not the pool is booked to be rendered on Tuesday - yipeeee we will be swimming on the long weekend!!!

Have a great weekend - I know I will !!

Real estate stalking in ...Subiaco WA


45 Hensman Road, Subiaco, WA 6008



I do like an old meets new home  - keeping the original facade and extending in a new more modern look - this home does a  that  - I would  like to see more steel, rammed and a more industrial feel but I would not say no to this home  - listed here while it lasts.

The house update..

Things continue to plod along- we are really focussing on the outdoor area -and at last the tiler has done his bit on the pool so we can get going on the back yard - we can finish the deck and paved around the pool, get the pool fence completed, lawn down and then the dust will hopefully reduce in the back of the house- reducing the dust will be fantastic!!

I have a few snaps of our bedroom - nothing great  - still have not painted and done much interior design but so far so good...





Barrel light fitting from Freedom Furniture - and the euro pillow slips for Shannon Fricke - via Temple and Webster.  Linen doona cover via Ikea.
