This last month has been absolutely insane and I was really sad about not having the time to do most of our Christmas traditions so I somehow found the time to whip up some gluten free gingerbread cookies. #christmas #christmascookies #fondantcookies #floodcookies #marble #pineapple #pineapplecookies #palmtrees #glutenfree #palmtreecookies

Audrey was just telling me yesterday how she wanted her own fruit shop. #christmas #carterbros #merrychristmas #fruitshop #woodentoys

Today our amazingly talented friend @jacklesdouglas came and painted a mural on our fruit shop. We are super close to opening and today we have ticked one more thing off the to do list. Thanks Jack! We love it!! #carterbros #mural #gorilla #fruithat #fruitshop #jackdouglas #mustachebanana #familyowned #localbusiness (at Carter Bros. Fruit & Veg. Silvan)

This morning we went on an adventure to visit Santa at his workshop. Audrey was very excited the whole way there but upon seeing Santa in the flesh the excitement slowly turned into fear. There was a lot of tears when her turn came around which meant BJ and I had to jump in to be able to get a photo this year. In the end we got a little smile from her before she said thank you and high fived Santa. It wasn’t a complete disaster #Santa #santaphotos #chirnsideparksanta #christmas2017 #cactusjumpsuit #audreyj (at Chirnside Park Shopping Centre)

Happy Birthday to my little old man Cooper! Can’t believe this grump has been in my life for 9 amazing years. #cloondog #chihuahua #birthday #chihuahuabirthday #birthdayhat #cowboyhat

This week I did a cookie decorating class at @choice_cakes. I got to try some new techniques and use some products that I’ve never used before. I came home with 10 beautiful cookies... one of which BJ ate before I got a chance to take some very poor photos of the rest. I’m excited to put my new skills to the test, just need an excuse to make some more cookies #homemade #cookies #gingerbread #decorating #flooding #fondant #fondantcookies #unicorn #unicorncookies #mermaid #mermaidcookies #edibleimages #pipingskills #madskills #sparklesparkle

This weekend Kaia wanted to come for a sleepover and Audrey was happy as Larry to get to hang out with her big cousin. We went on a family adventure to the Yarra Valley Chocolatarie... again!! Kaia had never been and we decided to do something nice to spoilt her and Audrey. #onehourphoto #yarravallychocolaterie #yarravalley #familyadventure #goat #chocolate #specialchocolate #cousins (at Yarra Valley Chocolaterie)

We haven’t really had any family time since we got back from our holiday so this afternoon we went on an adventure to Warrandyte for some strawberries and icecream. Audrey use to love strawberries until she was over-berried by everyone so she refused to eat any but she ate every drop of icecream that she could, including MY last bite... that jerk!! #familyadventure #strawberriesandicecream #warrandyte #strawberries #icecream (at Warrandyte Berry Farm)

And I couldn’t let the last bit of cookie dough go to waste so I cut out a handful of mini’s and decorated them for BJ with one of his favourite words. #buttholecookies #sugarcookies #fondant #fondantcookies #marblefondant #minicookies #handmade #homemade #instabaking

So my friend and her daughter share a birthday... how crazy is that!! We decided to do some cookies for her as well. These were my first ever attempt at fondant covered cookies and I loved having the opportunity to try something new. #sugarcookies #fondant #fondantcookies #marblefondant #lettercookies #thebig30 #handmade #homemade #instabaking #birthday

Made these cute number two cookies for a friends daughters 2nd birthday this week. If it isn’t obvious they are inspired by their obsession with Emma Wiggle. The bows were handmade using fondant last minute after my mould was late to arrive. Really happy with how they turned out. #2yearold #sugarcookies #floodicing #piping #emmawiggle #fondant #fondantbows #handmade #homemade #birthday #instabaking #thewiggles

Goodbye Loch Sport!! Our first family holiday was a great success. So many new experiences and wonderful memories. Whenever we ask Audrey what her favourite part of the holiday was, she says ‘the supermarket’ 😂😂 #familyadventure #familyholiday #lochsport #goingtomissthatview (at Loch Sport, Victoria)

Today called for a trip to Golden Beach for some fish n chips on the sand. The beach was so quiet and beautiful. With no one else around we enjoyed our lunch while we watched the waves crashing. We made friends with a seagull who gave us his gimpy leg routine for some chips. After lunch BJ and I dipped our toes in the water while Audrey supervised from a safe distance, making sand castles and the smooshing them with her hands. The best part about the day was that I didn’t burn AND I had the most amazing pineapple fritter EVER!!! (at Golden Beach, Victoria)

Today we took a walk down to the shore to play in the sand then later when we were driving around looking for a playground and a kangaroo stood right next to the car and stared at Audrey for ages. This evening we cooked a BBQ and watched the sunset. #hardlife #familyadventure #familyholiday #holiday #lochsport #kangaroo #sunset #sandcastles
