Belated gratefulness

Running a tad late for Maxabella's grateful post, but I'm grateful nonetheless for...

My eldest daughters appreciation for all things thrifting and pre-loved.

The wonderful haul of Op shop finds we come home with busting with excitement to update the internal decor of our cubby house

Watching the expression on our children's faces when we throw all caution to the wind and taste test their latest "chunkin soup" recipe. A good thing we are up to date with our tetanus shots!

For truck loads of grateful expression, head over here.

Talk about her mother's daughter!! You will have many a wonderful time together scouring the op shops for treasures.

He is a VERY brave man indeed. And just look how proud your daughter looks - it was worth it! x

Look at those excited faces ! Priceless ! Why do we have to lose that total abandonment and become sensible, worried about what others think etc??? Hmmmm, possibly bit deep for a Sunday morning! Great post - definitely things to be grateful for.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend, Dee x

Totally cute, i'm just glad my children have stopped saying "but everything is old/ smells/ dirty/ looks like it's from a dead lady's house" anymore while in Op Shops. Love Posie

Your girls are adorable! Your oldest actually looks like my stepdaugher when she was little (she is 23 now). But that chunkin soup ... brave! Have a fabulous day. :) Tammy
