Hooray for a button for Photo Friday. Feel free to grab this button and link to your photo Friday posts!

Its the end of 2012! Whoo its 2013 tomorrow. I am taking time out for the month of January and putting blogging on hold for a whole 31 days. Taking a break, having some family time, grabbing some sunshine, having quiet days, unplugging and spending time with my two wonderful boys and of course Mr B.

See you back in February!!

I have made a start on next years ornaments. I came across these crochet ornaments and after borrowing some ends of white wool from a friend I made a start using up the ends of all the coloured balls I have.

Here's to an easy travel crochet project and I plan on making many more with different coloured middles.

Lets play ball

We borrowed from the Toy Library a kiwi cricket set. The boys have had a blast while playing with us. We have simple rules. Five bowls each unless you get out and everyone takes turns. We are working hard at teaching the boys to share and also be gracious in defeat. No better time than now to teach them not everyone can win and everyone can have fun playing together!
