Little Love for Friday or Saturday

This week I've been loving

how much good stuff is happening in Christchurch and how so much of it is about making connections. I think the silver lining of all the quakes down here has been the feeling of community it has created.

These amazing trains on every Sunday afternoon and so reasonable to go on (and perfect for celebrating boys who have turned 4!)


There is this new crafty awesome cafe

This cool clothing swap with a stylist that another Chch blogger highlighted to me

The Atlas spent some time last night joining in with volunteers who are creating a pallet pavillion

This amazing retro clothing evening coming up (which I happen to be MCing - whoot!!)

... and the rest

Sewing time

And my little boys who are all that AND a box of crackers!!

I'm also loving announcing my October giveaway winner - congratulations to Juliet Cameo Brooch coming  your way!!

Also if you've ever wondered what I sound like and the kind of stuff I talk about when I'm talking about my faith this is me - speaking about Belonging. Let me know if you have a listen :o)

I'll be launching my November giveaway this weekend too

Are you having time to relax and enjoy the Spring or is end-of-year-crazy getting in the way??
