Insta Moments #2

Moët Ice Imperial launch

Hi friends, it’s been ages since I last did an Instagram round up for you, so here’s a little snippet from my feed.

Back at the end of September, Guillaume and I went to the Moët Ice Impérial launch. We were swept off to a secret location to experience the new summer drink. We arrived at the most jaw dropping ocean cliff top “weekender” in Mahurangi, North of Auckland. Oh how the other half, or should I say 1% live…. the views… I’m still swooning!

The last school holidays we made a trip to the Auckland Museum which is always a favourite. Afterwards we had a little run around The Domain park just outside the Museum and Lou was particularly taken by the wild daisies.

Here I am with a bit of a goofy smile! You may recall that I attended Home Magazine’s Style Safari last month. One of the stops was at Backhouse Interiors and I was so looking forward to trying out Kartell’s Foliage, it didn’t disappoint, super comfortable and fun colours. If you didn’t catch it, you can read about my thoughts on the day here.

Then there was Megan Morton’s The School Roadshow here in Auckland. Here’s the lovely Kara Rosenlund in action during her Vignettes workshop. You can also read my wrap up of the jam-packed weekend of learning here.

Guillaume arrived home from the shops the Sunday before last with a load of squid. He threw them on the barbeque for dinner and it’s without say that the kids were so excited by the spectacle of it all!

I’m still a bit run down and needing to take it easy so this weekend I tried to get as much rest as humanly possible with three children and a husband away. On went the television in the morning for weekend cartoons for the kids and a feast of muesli bars and bananas while I retreated in the bedroom for as long as I could. I did get a good lie in until Lou decided to jump all over me.

You can follow all the day-to-day moments as they happen on Instagram here.

See you Wednesday.
