The weather man promised rain today and lots of it. We started our Sunday in a slow pace. The kids rose early, but decided to make their own breakfast and let us have a sleep in ( I know!!! Luxury has a new meaning). After everybody was up we had a long breakfast together and just enjoyed not having to rush off anywhere. The rain was indeed coming down and it looked like it would have to be a Sunday inside. After we had enough of soaking up the peaceful start of the day we decided to hope for the best and head on out for some fresh air. The rain seem to accompany us where ever we went, but after a nice lunch at a bay resturant the raindrops seemed to dissipate and low and behold, in front of us was a large mirror like ocean, just waiting for us to come out and play.

There was no wind, no rain and a big rock pool to explore. With full tummies and a big appreciation that we got to have a whole afternoon without rain. The kids jumped from rock to rock and marveled at the trapped sea life that was in the pools. Big deep breaths of fresh air put big smiles on everybody's faces and we seem to all agree that we got the perfect Sunday to end the weekend off with.

Moments | On a Leaf Mission

D wears: Peace top by Baobab / Harem denims by Baobab / Shoes by MÁA

The leaves are coming down in huge numbers over here. Autumn has really made its announcement in style and the explosion of colours are spectacular as usual. D was on a mission to find the best looking Autumn leaves he could for a Kinder project, so off we went to see what we could find. We quickly found some nice BIG leaves that we saved, and he also found a big pile of dried leaves that was the best to jump and walk in. By the end of our little walk we had found everything he needed to bring to Kinder, and today I saw the most lovely Autumn tree, handmade by all the kids at Kinder with all the leaves attached to it. Autumn you are alright! You bring us warmth in colours when the winds fail to. 

Moments | School's Out

D wears: Longsleeve by munsterkids / Jeans by I Dig Denim. M wears: Feather Top by Baobab / Denim skirt by Baobab / Shoes by molo. 

Yep, school's out, and the everyday routines are out the window for about 2 weeks. We started the weekend with trying out a new toy that D had saved up for (big sis got a loom band kit for the holiday and little brother picked a plane). We went for a bit of a drive and finally found a big, long and not very occupied beach that was a perfect setting for trying out the new plane. The excitement was big as the plane was thrown for the first time. The little propeller swirled around and the light plane took off and flew for about 10 m. Big jumps of happiness and then more of the same for about an hour!

Its fun to see how little it takes for kids to enjoy themselves, and a toy plane isn't even necessary. If there was no plane then they would climb rocks (which they did anyway) build sandcastles and find all sorts of ways of getting to wade into the water... It was the perfect start to the holidays and a great way to end the weekend.
