Yesterday our beautiful boy turned 5 (a whole hand as he says) - his theme this year is pirates so we went along with it through out the day. Jude had a wonderful day and got so super spoiled. What a blessed boy he is.

 I think we had more fun with this than Jude, all had a turn to try it on - the head talks when you talk and plays music etc... so lots of fun. 

I have been feeling very inspired in the kitchen (a few weeks ago haha - been too busy this week). Wanted to keep up the healthiness in the home, so one night I made my moms famous roast veggies, with yummy chicken and rice and then another night I made stir fried noodles which was also yum :) 

Roast veggies: pumpkin, broccoli, red peppers, garlic cloves and potatoes.

Chicken ready to cook. 

Walah.

Stir fried noodles - ready to cook. 

And we have some yumminess on a plate.

So.... I won my first ever competition in NZ and by my favorite store-woohoo You had to enter your favorite quote and mine was: Faith: being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Which I live by every day :) I got my prize delivered to my door the next day yay. It was a lovely canvas with a quote and a gorgeous address book. 

 Happy Easter!!! We all had a wonderful Easter. Woke up with Jude super excited to go on a hunt - sadly a cate ate 3 of his eggs in the night grrr. After that we had a major breakfast at my aunts plc where Jude got even more eggs etc... had nice time there, followed by a trip to the indoor pools to swim a few laps (3 laps haha) and then just some fun to cool off in the pool.

Cupcakes my aunt made which we so super cute.

Gifts from my aunt for Jude. 

More gifts from granny and grandpa. 

my egg from my mom , love my mug. 

2 weeks ago we decided to have a garage sale. We've been living here for 2yrs now and it was time to get rid of things. Now I must say that we did not advertise like we should've and took a chance, sadly we sold one thing and only 5 people came within an hour. It's definitely lots of fun setting up and pricing everything, but very boring of no one comes but we'll be doing this again soon and this time we'll advertise properly :)
