In South Africa, schools and work places run on the year-calendar (unlike America that runs Aug - June school year). So that translates to a December full of wrapping up and finishing strong.
Add to it that we have 2 significant birthdays in our family circle during Nov/Dec and you've got a recipe for an overcrowded schedule.
While my creativity these last 2 weeks has resorted to doodles, baking new recipes and surviving pregnancy, I still want to finish the year strong with the blog and work on a few more art projects when break hits.
Here's a 2 week update on all the family happenings and hopefully I'll get some photos and documenting done for #365daysofcreativity this coming week (#50).
