The weather is heating up and for us, that means p The weather is heating up and for us, that means playgrounds start to drop off the "to-do list", as they're just too hot to handle during our summer days. However, there are a few beautifully shady playgrounds that we find ourselves revisiting over Summer when we need that playground fix!! The playground and bike track at Runaway Bay Sports Precinct is one of these gems! With plenty of huge shady trees, a fabulous bike track with fuel pump, a small skate bowl, and a new playground, this park caters to all ages and abilities. Parents can easily find a shady spot to sit and watch, while the kids explore the mostly fenced play space (there are no gates, so while it's fenced, the access points are open). If you visit during library hours, be sure to pop in to the Runaway Bay Library for a reprieve from the heat, too (bathrooms and drink fountains are available here too!). Do you have a favourite shady park? I'd love to hear it, so share in the comments! See all the details at https://www.mrslardeedah.com/runaway-bay-sports-precinct-east-bike-park/
Not my best month for reading, but still proud of Not my best month for reading, but still proud of the 8 books I did get through!! A hectic month meant less time for me, so hopefully October is a bit kinder 🙏 Lots of 4-5 star reads though!! This was a great month for good books. The brand new Wild Eyes by @authorelsiesilver was a highlight of the month and 5/5. Life's Too Short by authorabbyjimenez is an oldie, but part of a 3 book series (and Happy Ever Playlist in this series is my all time fave read) so I needed to go back and read this one!! 5/5! @beckamack.author is a new to me author and I am just burning through her books, I started #3 last night and they are all just SO good! A hockey romance with guys who aren't afraid to be nice ❤️ giving the series a 4/5. Cross the line, Not in love and Daydream were 3/5 reads, not sure if it was just my mood but the Young Adult fiction just didn't work for me this month - lots of tiktok social media stuff and college dramas 🥴 Parenting Revolution by @drjustincoulson, because he's one of my fave parenting experts and I found this on audiobook!! If you liked the tv show Parental Guidance, you will enjoy this one. I give it 4/5. #hotreads #romancereader #bookstagram #bookreview #whatiread
You either like Halloween... or you don't. I think You either like Halloween... or you don't. I think you can guess which team my household falls into? 1 October means it's time to get out our Halloween decorations, spooky books and haunted crafts for a month of FUN! We love working with a theme, and Halloween is up there with my kids' favourites. Sorry not sorry for all the #Halloween spam coming your way!!
Cirque du Soleil Luzia is in Brisbane! And what an Cirque du Soleil Luzia is in Brisbane! And what an experience! The talented performers, the amazing singers, the music, the WATER!! This is my 4th Cirque and I love how each one is so different from the next. You haven't seen anything like it and this clip is just a snippet of the mind blowing performances. Absolutely 10/10 show! Don't miss out on seeing Luzia, it's on in Brisbane until November 10! ~invited~ @cirquedusoleil @kathrose @flourish_pr
My go-to @aldiaustralia buys to keep away the hang My go-to @aldiaustralia buys to keep away the hangry while I'm on the go! I'm great at packing lunchboxes for the kids, but often, I'll go all day before realising I'm grumpy and haven't eaten. So I've started to make an effort to throw a few snacks in my bag when I head out the door! ALDI has all my go-to buys that are excellent in quality, for a significantly cheaper price. Be sure to add some of these to your shopping cart next time you’re in ALDI! My on the go snacks: • Snackers Market Colby Cheese & Crackers 100g 4pk • Sprinters Popcorn Multipack 10 Pack 200g • Forresters On The Go dry roasted honey mixed nuts 5 pack • apples #ad @ALDIaustralia #ALDIPartner #mygotoALDIbuys

The Minions are in town! The Mulch Minions, that i The Minions are in town! The Mulch Minions, that is. If you're unfamiliar, the northern Gold Coast cane fields host a popular Mulch Minion Trail each September to coincide with school holidays and the cane harvest. These cute creations can be found on the Exit 38 Tourism coordinated trail that takes you through Yatala, Stapylton, Alberton, Jacobs Well.and Norwell. Jump over to their Facebook page to find the link to the trail map. On until 24 September! Some tips: - as mentioned, it's cane harvesting time. Be mindful of tractors and other heavy machinery driving around and give them plenty of space. - some stretches of the trail are 100km/hr. If you have cars behind you, I suggest pulling over whenever it is safe to do so and letting them pass. There are a few good ones on that stretch and you will miss them if you go past too quick. - the map has points plotted to help you get around the trail via the best route. These plotted points are NOT where the minions are. You need to keep your eyes peeled as they can be ANYWHERE along the trail depending on who chooses to participate. - some of the bigger businesses on the trail didn't have their Minions out (ie. Yatala Pies) which was disappointing. Hopefully they make late appearances! - keep an eye out for snakes if you're getting in and out of the car, and be mindful of passing traffic. - @kingfishchips are the best on the GC, if you know what's good, you'll stop there on your journey 😉
My go-to @aldiaustralia buys to fill the kids snac My go-to @aldiaustralia buys to fill the kids snack boxes these school holidays! While school might be on a break, that doesn’t mean the lunchboxes disappear! Keeping my kids fed while they’re home all day is made easier by packing them a snack box and ensuring the snack drawer is replenished. ALDI has all my go-to buys that are excellent in quality, for a significantly cheaper price. The kids love picking out their snacks for the day, and I love to add a little surprise joke in there, too 😉 Be sure to add some of these to your shopping cart next time you’re in ALDI! My snack draw buys: • The Cake Stall Banana Bread 500g 5pk • Belmont Biscuit Co. Choc Chip Teddy Tots 250g 10pk • Sprinters Popcorn Multipack 10 Pack 200g • Brooklea Yogurt Squishy 70g #ad @ALDIaustralia #ALDIPartner #mygotoALDIbuys
