Camping...

We spent the with weekend away with 6 families camping - between the 6 families there were 18 children, which included three sets of identical twins.  We are not a big camping family but we really enjoyed the weekend and it has got us thinking about getting some camping gear ourselves - we borrowed pretty much everything!  Let just say that next time round we will all check our equipment - the tent we borrowed would have been fantastic had it come with the necessary poles required to erect the tent- but luckily as a last chuck it in the car if might come in handy item we packed our three person dome tent- it was a comfortable weekend - if not a little chaotic as the single tent had no storage so we had to keep stuff in the car - but alas it was a great weekend.  So it got me thinking about our next camping trip....

MERRICK WATTS converted lolly factory

Envious, very very envious-  recently an inner city Fremantle warehouse was on the market - way way out of our budget  - but nonetheless  I dreamt of how we could convert it into a home  - so I was delighted to open the Real Living mag and find the home of Merrick Watts and his family - now I have super duper warehouse/factory envy!!!
(you can catch Merrick on ABC1 Tractor Monkeys  8pm - highly recommend the show!)
