Welcome to my little Blog DownUnder.
If you're new here, this is an overview of who I am and what you can find here.
Life really is like a rollercoaster. It has its ups and downs, sometimes you're laughing and sometimes it makes you want to scream. I can close my eyes, hang on tight and wait for it to be over... or I can enjoy the rush, find the thrill, make it fun.
Here on my blog I write honestly about the ups and downs of life and motherhood; things that make me laugh or cry, and what I'm learning along the way.
I share bright ideas I think will help make your life easier or more fun, like our parties and theme dinners. My book-loving alter-ego Mrs Readalot runs a Bookclub where you can link up your book reviews.
Sometimes I share my thoughts on faith and soul stuff. At times I write about Living with Depression and what gets me through.
I blog because I love to write, and share ideas, and connect with others. That's it.
All the topics you might be looking for are arranged on index pages...
> About Me: a page to help you get to know me
> Our Family: introducing the main actors in this drama, my beloved family
> Party Stuff: parties of all kinds, how to's, menus, printables, tutorials and fun ideas
> Yummy Stuff: Favourite easy-to-make Recipes, including gluten and dairy free ones
> Parenting Stuff: the magic of Play, fun ideas to make life easier, my take on Motherhood and all the things I'm learning along the way (usually the hard way)
> Blog Tips: Including Blog Design tips, photo editing and make-your-own buttons
> Depression and Me: a collection of posts from my personal journey through Depression and Anxiety
> Book Club: Mrs Readalot (my bookaholic alter-ego) runs a bloggy bookclub - all voracious readers welcome!
I have a website with all my FREE party invitations and printables on it plus a little Etsy shop where I sell my personalised party invitations which are cheap as chips and super cool (if I do say so myself). I also have a Custom Blog Design webshop - I can do your blog makeover for you or just create custom headers or buttons for your blog.
> Join the conversation... leave a comment
> "Like" my Facebook page... and share your party photos there (I'd love to see how my ideas get used)
> If you don't want to miss a post, you can "follow" me however it suits you: on Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, on Instagram, in an RSS reader, on Bloglovin or sign up to get Greatfun4kids delivered right to your inbox (subscribe by email)
