goodbye noosa

Today we head home. Sniff sniff. It's been the most wonderful holiday with plenty of relaxing, swimming (well not me, the little ones), shopping (oh the shopping), eating (the diet went right out the window and starts again saturday) and just all being together as one big happy family.

OK, well it hasn't all been happy families. We've had some laughs but it hasn't been easy, there have been some over-excited and tired little people to deal with each day. I'm just keeping it real for all of you out there but overall we had a great time. I have lots of photos and stories to share when we get home but till then one of my favourite photos of the trip is of my girls this afternoon as we waited for daddy to do a bit of shopping. I know. One very rare moment.

I had already managed to squeeze in a bit of last minute shopping with a tiny bracelet for myself from my new favourite shop......so now I can look at it and remember our first family holiday to Queensland.
 
Last little shopping treat for myself:)
 
And as well as falling in love with Noosa.....well I went and fell in love with Instagram. In fact I didn't take my big camera out at all - just my iPhone. So if you're not on it you need to get on it! So good.

  8. I have so enjoyed reading about your holiday here and on Instagram, thanks for prompting me to use it. Your photo of the 3 girls is gorgeous!
    We are going to Caloundra in November, and HAVE to go to Noosa (I honeymooned in Maroochydore with number 1 in 1975, my friend with his number one in Noosa in 1974)!
