Cars on my mind

So i've been dreaming about buying a new car for so long, and although we cant get one for a few more months, i've been trying to decide what one would suit our family best.

So here are the top contenders.

Toyota Kluger Grande

I am in-love with this car, i've been wanting one for years and years, but i'm not a fan of the price-tag for a brand new one, the second hand ones aren't so bad especially compared to some other cars.

Ford Territory

So I dont like the Territory as much as the Kluger, but it looks like second hand ones are a bit cheaper, but they chew up more petrol than the Kluger. Hmmmm....

Subaru Tribeca

I didn't even know that this car existed until I saw it on drive.com.au with someone doing a review on it. The luxury model looks alot like Kluger inside, so ill have to research second hand ones a bit more and see how the price compares to the Kluger. 

What car do you have? What would you recommend? 

Ice, Ice Baby

My fingers are nearly falling off typing this post, my phones says its 2 degrees here at the moment.....so so cold.
I went to put the bins out this morning, and our grass was covered in ice, and so was my car, and unfortunately we only have 2 little crappy air heaters in the whole house. So me and the kids are rugged up in jumpers, socks, beanies and blankies today.

So we're spending the day inside.....again....so its movies for the kids, and computer time for me.

Hope its warmer wherever you are ;)

Home Again, Home Again

Im so excited for my little holiday back home in less than 2 weeks!!

Its only been 2 months since we left on our journey to the middle of nowhere, but i've missed my family and friends (especially Alicia-Jane and her growing belly) so much, I cant wait to see everyone.

I have to admit though, as much as I missed people I kinda missed the shops just as much lol.

Oh Target, and K-mart, I took you for granted before, but never again. I cant wait for a shopping spree!

While i'm down in good ol' Radelaide, i'm going to change my hair. Iv decided to go back blonde, but I dont know whate shade, and if I want to cut my hair or not....

Here's what i'm kind of wanting to achieve.

Hoping I can get this done before my mums big 50th party!

Rain, Rain, Go Away

It felt like I hadnt seen rain in ages, it hardly ever rains here, so when the kids and I were about to walk out the door to go to the park and started stepping in puddles, I was very surprised.

So no park for us today, instead we watched TV all day, painted our nails...yep all of us even the little guy, did our hair, played pin the tail on the donkey and had fun playing with the camera.

I love those kind of days.

Here are a few pics from today...
