Rugby World Cup Final & Bubble.

We got up early to watch the Rugby World Cup Final this morning. We were kept on the edge of our seats and it was a nail-biting match in its entirety. The All Blacks lost to the Springboks 11-12. We were gutted by the result, but such is life. I made sausage butties and hot chocolate for breakfast, so at the very least, we didn't end the match hangry. 

The winds have been strong and slightly unsettling today. We're feeling the remnants of Cyclone Lola and strong winds are expected through tonight and tomorrow. 

Our big girl spent a few hours at the sewing machine and managed to finish making her plush toy. She's worked really hard at it and been exceedingly patient even when it got tricky. She learned to work with a simple pattern and cutting out fabric from it to make her toy . Presenting her newest addition to her plush toy collection: Bubble the Octopus!
