Well we're back in our stifling little house and positively steaming once again...
The weekend was good. The zzz's came and went between Shelleypingpong's midnight visits to her outdoor toilette but we had some time to relax in the cool, eat some nice food, bake cakes and enjoy some champers by the river. Fin also mastered the great art of the monkey bars and took his first ride on a jet ski, courtesy of new friends Lyn and John. The rest of us had a go on the doughnut ring - great fun, though admittedly I spent most of it wailing for John to go easy on the gas whilst attempting to rid litres of the swan river from my eyes/hair/ears...
Sunday's adventure was a visit to one of Perth's many upcoming free festivals. There's stacks of exciting events happening over the next month - ballets, concerts, gigs, cinema, contemporary dance, art - so we are excited, especially since it involves minimal damage to our rapidly dwindling bank account. Sunday's offering was a variety of hand made wares and though I went in search of a crochet blanket for our couch, instead I found a lady who runs crochet classes. Hence I will be attempting to make our very own crochet blanket, the key word being 'attempting'. Whether I actually finish it or not remains to be seen.
Granny chic here we come!

My husband has been offered a job in Perth. We are considering moving from Utah, USA. How long have you been in Perth?
Your blog is lots of fun. Can you recommend any other perth mom-ish blogs?
Cheers - Rika
Hi Rika,
Good luck with the move, it is a beautiful part of the world that's for sure. There are lots of mama blogs I'm sure. I found this one yesterday by Rachel Allen Wood which is particularly funny:
