After the rain, wind & misery of last years Christmas break, this year could not be more different. Sunny skies, soaring temperatures & a Summer that those who live here in Hawkes Bay really do like to skite about (this is me skiting by the way).

| Ahh Festive Hams! |
Christmas was filled with much laughter food & wine (plus greatly expanded waist lines) - just exactly as it should be.

I am so glad that after a very social & festive Christmas, Dr. Phil, the boys' & I were able to escape just up the road to Waipatiki Beach to the awesome Waipatiki Beach
Farm holiday park for a weeks camping. It was great to see Louis & Hugo really take flight into the waves & thoroughly embrace the essence of a classic Kiwi Summer.

You know a holiday has just been the ticket when you are feeling refreshed & really looking forward to getting stuck into new projects for 2013. That all kicked off for me yesterday with the sale of my beloved Gisborne house to a young family wishing to restore the old girl to her former glory, I'm delighted that she has found such lovely guardians.

I have also had renewed vigour with my knitting having completed boy Louis & Hugo's jumpers for this Winter, I have cast on a cardigan for me (
Miss Jane by Georgie Hallum) & am toying with the idea of a creating a design for the Unwind Retreat in March - oh to have that fresh flush of motivation.

What a small world - another crafty person was at Waipatiki camp probably the same time as our family and above us by the looks of your view! A great place to unwind and be inspired :)
