Back in Business – Weekend Style x 3!

Back in Business – Weekend Style x 3!
Carly Jacobs

Hey my loves back in action after the most delightful weekend away. I was totally without t.v, laptop, dvds or music the entire weekend and it was incredible. Here’s a little run down of the weekends events…

On Friday morning Mr Smaggle and two of our friends had a really early BBQ picnic breakfast to watch the hot air balloon festival over the lake. It was too foggy for the balloons to fly very high so we ate breakfast and went for a walk to check out the balloons that managed to stay inflated. It was Anzac Day (for my international readers Anzac stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corp and it’s a day of commemoration for our soldiers that fought in wars) so everyone had the day off work. Mr Smaggle and I then drove to the coast, went shopping in little bookstores and gift shops along the way, went to the zoo and ate fish and chips by the ocean… Seriously delightful!

* Shoes from Scooter

* Sunglasses from Equip

* Hat lent to me from Dave (it’s not actually part of the outfit I was just really really cold!)

 

On Saturday we slept in and then went to Bateman’s Bay for lunch. We then played miniature golf and Mr Smaggle kept laughing because when I didn’t get the ball in the hole I would swear really loudly and inappropriately in front all the children, who just quietly were swearing just as much as I was. We then got delicious Thai takeaway and drank cider outside while watching possums frolicking in the trees. I know it’s totally vomit-inducing cuteness but trust me it gets worse…

Today Mr Smaggle and I got up early and went for a long walk along the beach. We then ate a delicious picnic in a park by the ocean. We then spontaneously decided to stop by a place called ‘Birdland Animal Park’ and it was awesome! We arrived just in time for a snake and wombat show and as there were only four people in the audience we all got to hold the snake! This is Goldie and she recently shed her skin so she was all clean and soft. I loved the way she kept wrapping her tail around my arm like a bangle. I also got to cuddle a baby wombat called Bailey who was SO CUTE! We then drove home and ate eggs for dinner while watching Gladiator. It was a truly terrifying re-introduction back into the land of television…

Yep – so my weekend pretty much rocked. How was yours?

    Jordan – He is so snuggly! I felt bad for the handler though because she said it was just a few months and he would turn against her and start attacking her and he would have to be released into the wild. Where were you at the coast? Lilli Pilli?

    Na – Ew I know. I hate Amazon. She is quite spectacular looking but that hair is stupid. And I want to smash Viper in the face. She is SO ANNOYING!!! Why do they need personalalites? Can’t they just be buff and dumb like they used to be?

    Agh, I hope to do corny stuff like that with my husband one day. Glad you had a good weekend 🙂

    ShowA59 – It’s super good fun! You have to find yourself a man who’ll be corny with you.

    Ivy – The weekend was pretty spectacular. Are you Greek? Wow! I jsut keep learning more and more about my readers. I was only gone for 2 days! But I’m back now. 🙂

    Ah, Birdland. I have also held the baby wombat…cute. I, however, passed on the snake. We were at the coast too, with Jenna and Aaron. Noice….

    I watched Gladiators as well! It was awesomely hilarious (tho not as much fun as I remembered it being when I watched it as a tyke). how hideous is Amazon’s hair/make-up combo? blerk!

    I, characteristically, spent the weekend drunk, hungover, reading, getting cranky with my mother, and making sweeet sweeet music with the country band.

    Awwww yay!! You still did a daily outfit for us 😀 I’m completely jealous of your weekend!! I want to hold Goldie and have a breakfast picnic, dammit…
    I had my Easter on the weekend – yeah, I’m Greek. Which means I’ve been eating half price easter eggs all weekend. Oh, and I went op shopping with my friend! That was cool 🙂
    I’m glad you’re back, Lady Smaggle 🙂
