We had the pleasure of meeting Sharon and Dawson Cooke, their kids, and gorgeous dog Brenna a few weeks ago.
Sharon and Dawson have just started up a fantastic business called FamilyWorks, which focuses on providing parenting essentials to support mothers, fathers, and carers of young children. Between them, they offer up 30 years of experience in supporting parents, and are able to offer seasoned insight that helps to cut through the confusion many parents go through.
FamilyWorks will also be exhibiting at the Pregnancy, Babies, and Children’s Expo this year, and will be at stand E06 – be sure to stop by and check out some of our photos they have used for their stall :)
Our girls are definitely going through a princess and fairy stage, so when we saw these fairy wings from Arabella’s Vintage Wardrobe we couldn’t help ourselves :)
We’ve had so many sessions with this family now that they feel like old friends :) It was lovely to meet their newest addition; isn’t she just gorgeous?
Easter has to be Alexis’ favourite holiday. There is chocolate and bunnies and then we get to walk around and look for more chocolate!
The tradition down south for as long as we can remember has been the “Hash Run.” The Easter Bunny grabs some flour, sets the trail, and then everyone tramps around the bush and finds cirlcles full of Easter eggs. Dots of flour mean that you are on the right track and the leaders call out “On! On!” to let everyone know to keep going, a cross means that you have to “Check back!” and find the correct trail, and a big flour circle means that there is chocolate nearby. This Easter Egg hunt has been scaled back somewhat since we have been doing it with the girls but we think that in a couple of years they will be able to handle a massive one – especially if there are lots of eggs (and juice boxes for Alyssa who doesn’t really like chocolate) to keep up their energy levels :)
We hope that you all had a fabulous Easter break!
