(framing favourite quotes)
(taking the flying chairs ride to a whole new level - it went wayy too high up in the sky)
(our sparkling little christmas tree)
(soup and bread - perfect comfort food)
(fairy floss - an old obsession of mine)
Recently, I feel like I haven't been living in the moment. I have just been constantly dreaming about being somewhere else. Whether that's dreaming about being back home in Sydney, or on a ski trip to the Swiss Alps, or going to London for the weekend, I just haven't really been focusing on everything amazing around me.
That was until this weekend. George and I spent cozy days inside sipping on soup while watching cheesy Christmas movies. We visited Cardiff's Winter Wonderland, hung fairy lights all around our apartment and even put up our own miniature Christmas tree.
I now feel totally content on where I am right now. (But that doesn't mean that I am so incredibly excited to be back home in Sydney in 25 days time.)

You can totally be happy right now and look forward to stuff in the future at the same time. I'm like that as well at the moment. And also loooving my early Christmas decorations, cosy nights in watching films etc. These last few months in a year are definitely my favourite (or am I now sayin this about every month?) (ah, well..)
Thanks for sharing pics from your weekend again, it's always so much better than mine haha (and seems SO British now to me!)

love your Christmas decoration! really cute!
Looks like a cozy weekend (minus the flying chairs part). Living in the moment is something I'm trying to do more of too.
I love those days we remember to live in the moment - makes life richer.
The light in each of these images is amazing.
