The Easter Holidays are about to start….3 hours to go!
Wahooo!!! In just a few short hours I will be picking up my three adorable cherubs from school and saying Sayōnara to school life for 2 weeks. I am very excited! If you know me, you will know that I am one of those parents who just loves school holidays. I see school holidays as my opportunity to have fun with the kids. It’s an opportunity to relax and make some memories with the kids. I find it incredibly amusing how many mothers dread the school holidays, I must seem somewhat crazy to these mums – but I love holidays! Having four kids does make holiday time somewhat expensive,…

Its International Day of Happiness!!!
Are you happy? Today is all about being happy – Its the official International Day of Happiness. I personally believe that happiness is a choice. If we allow our circumstances to dictate whether or not we are happy, there are going to be ‘some’ who will live their whole life as a sad sack of potatoes. I personally have an issue with that mindset! Obviously there are times in our lives where circumstances do weigh into how we feel. A passing of a family member or a friend, or a loved one leaves and lives in another country, a business deal going sour, maybe our dreams haven’t come…

A Beautiful Gift
http://www.joybells.com.au Recently a very lovely friend of mine gave me a gift! Its a gift that I have to admit that I had never heard of before, and when I had opened it I was surprised and thrilled. I bet your wondering what my gorgeous little gift is? Well I will show you! It’s a Spongelle! I have used this gorgeous gift every time I have showered for the last 12 days, and its still going strong. The Spongelle is a beautiful bodywash infused buffer or sponge. This one is known as the Hot Spice Ginger Infusion, and lets just say that I feel fantastic getting out of the shower. This ‘Hot Spice…

How to Bring out your Inner Goddess!
As a Stay at Home Mum of four children, I decided a few months ago that I needed to go on a journey to find ‘Sarah’ again. The young youthful Sarah, I remember was a very different person to who I am now. I remember her to be a lot more fun and spontaneous than she is now. She used to spontaneously go and have hot chocolates (I am not a coffee or tea drinker) and play pool at the Twin Waters Resort with friends on a Friday or Saturday evening. The young Sarah tried to learn how to surf (failed miserably – but it was fun trying)…

Parenting war with Fancy dancey stationery shops
I have three girls who love a particular colourful stationery shop that has seemed to pop up into every large shopping centre over the last few years. This store is are everywhere! The girls love to go and explore the fresh notebooks, pencils, pens, erasers, sharpeners, calculators, and other merchandise in each varying colour. This store is very appealing to the young eye, and I have been told by one of my dear impressionable children that if you don’t buy your school supplies at this particular store – then your basically worthless! As you can imagine, this no frills mummy, was not impressed by this untrue statement. I…

A Snippet of a Sunny Coast Guru
How great is Rachael Bermingham! I love Rachael’s style, I especially love her book ‘Savvy – Ingredients for Success’, but if you were to ask me what I love most about Rachael, I would tell you that I love Rachael because she is determined to be the best mum first and foremost, and time to work on her projects are positioned around family commitments. She has created an empire doing what she loves to do, and believing in herself. This Ted video is a 17 minute video of Rachael talking basically about believing in yourself. Knowing what you want and working out how to do it all, especially with a…
