Loving...

The Rainbow Eden Dress!
I love this wool! I love how the colours bleed into each other.
I love this pattern! So perfect to show off the fancy colours.
And I love how soft merino wool is.
Raveled here.

I love that Jazzy loved her new Rainbow Dress so much, she was happy to brave the icy wind for a photo shoot.

I love that none of us has gotten dressed today. Lazy daysies.

I love, love, love the puppies. Puppy love - I totally get the full meaning of that term now. They are all huddled up together asleep right now in a bundle after a day spent feeding voraciously.

I loved scripting, casting, rehearsing, shooting and editing The Friendship Movie this morning.

I love the way Indi is moving into the spare room and the touches she is putting on it to claim it as her own.

I am not loving the sore pimple on my chin.

I love having my farmer boy at home with us all day long.

I love that the girls are all working together as I type this to make a batch of chocolate balls. Oh my goodness the mess!!

I love that her sticker chart is making Jazzy behave like an angel.

I love coffee and salad with haloumi and salty pop corn and summer fruit.

I love it that the girls are working through a book of fairy tales. The little girls take turns choosing and Indi reads them one each night before bed.

I love that there are no plans, no time-tables, just slooooooooooow summer days.

What's going on at yours?
What are you loving??

See ya later alligator

  2. It is a lazy day for me, too. No plans, no food to prepare, no nothing.
    I might sew a bit, or not. I might go for a walk, or not.
    This is freedom!
    Cute jazzy dress, by the way.

    I'm loving lazy days too. Getting lots of sewing time in with the older kids looking after the little ones. I'm loving time with family and eating too much. Sunny days on the beach and sleeping in tents under the stars.

  9. What a spectacular rainbow dress! So colourful. Sorry to hear you are having to put up with icy winds in the summer! How awful for you all. Love the activities you are all enjoying.

    We are puzzling over here at the mo. Spent the day hanging out at home, playing a new board game and making a proper tutu!! Didn't quite work out as hoped, but you get that.

  19. I'm loving that rainbow dress. So so so uber ace.
    ... I'm also loving ice-cream and loving day dreaming about what 2011will hold. I have a fluttering feeling in my heart that makes me think it could be a really good year.

    Not loving the sharks that were swimming at the beach today thwarting my plans!

  22. thats a rainbow full of things to love :-)
    Im loving the not-have-to of our days...its the best, my gathering of sunflowers in my garden, berries galore, sleeping whenever, kids playing together and the lack of school crap weighing their shoulders down at 3.20pm every day, eating roast potatoes...might be time to stop that soon, thoughts of a new year coming, holding little hands, having my sister on skype in our lounge for hours... a portal across the world....and your puppies are so so so loveable. should we or shouldnt we let rosie have a litter is our question.. happy days Kate x x

  23. Hey Kate, amazing to see the paddock so green at this time of year. Yes, I know I am meant to be looking at Jazzy's dress, but it just struck me.....
    The dress looks lovely, all that knitting, you are amazing. It must feel lovely on against your skin and the colours, she will stand out in any crowd.
    So what's the next knitting project going to be?
    No time-tables how luxurious, such a great time of year,enjoy it.

  27. Oh my goodness! A rainbow dress of the utmost kind, the likes of which I have never seen! Beautiful!!!

  28. Well done with that dress - it's just perfect. We're all enjoying the man of our house being home too. It's all too rare, as we usually head back to Melbourne for Christmas so it's busy busy visiting and not being in our own space... Or on the rare occasions when we have Christmas at home he often ventures into the office as it's so quiet and good for getting work done. But this year they closed the office to upgrade the IT systems so... here's here with us ALL week. It's great! Enjoy your lazy days - may they last!

  29. Love that dress! It is completely gorgeous.

    I am loving the unrushed, quiet time after a month-long frenzy of holiday crafting :)

Thanks so much for stopping by...

I do read every single comment you leave and appreciate it very much, but I should let you know that I can be a wee bit on the useless side when replying to comments, that's just me, everyday life sometimes gets in the way....so I'll apologise now, just in case.
