mandurah with hb

a day in mandurah was just what the doctor ordered... it's been way too long since i have been anywhere kids free, so after i dropped the kids to school and alex at nannaleahs house, i headed south for the day, dropping off two pies on the way. i met up with my mate hayley from school and we actually had the best day. we hit up the local "promises" op shop that her mum volunteers at, then had lunch at a cute restaurant down on the jetty before wandering the local arty shops.

i loved this alleyway painted in all different pastel colours! so cute.

home again home again, the longest way of all time, to garden city to get grace a present from country road (lucky she's cute), then via forrestfield to drop off the very last pie and a lyrical costume to my friend. what a day, but it was the best kind of day. ❤

breen family shots

i got to take photos of this adorable family yesterday! cindy and i went to school together and when she asked me to take photos for her little family i jumped at the chance! her boys are adorable and we had so much fun.

master cooper loved the camera and shone like a little superstar while i took photos of him on his own, but wasn't so keen on sharing the spotlight. what a crackup kid!

"baby" callum was the cutest and kept throwing beautiful smiles at me, though wasn't so keen on sitting still...

and these two? adorable!! i could have taken pictures of them all day. so in love... 

we went out to these gorgeous old buildings in mandurah, which unfortunately i have no idea the name of (if anyone mandurah way recognises them and wants to let me know what they are called, please do...) - which also took a while to find... thank goodness for cindy's lovely and patient husband craig who drove around until we found something we were happy with.

i had a lovely afternoon and only hope they are happy with the results!
