DAY 7 // It's Monday, I Need a Coffee

Hi friends,
Its late so I'm going to keep this short and sweet as I have our usual early start on the fields tomorrow. There's no really farm update today other than..It's monday, and we chipped weeds. THE END.

As for my creative bit, I was a little stumped at first as to what I was going to do today... but I had remembered a post I saw on pinterest awhile back about Coffee in Australia and I thought, since it's monday I'd design a little fun graphic with the same concept as the one I saw, but with a completely cooler and more playful look.

I love coffee, and that is all thanks to my pops. The smell of coffee is always lingering in our house and a pot always seems to be brewed and waiting there to be consumed. For me, with plenty of sugar..even hot chocolate most the time. But when I'm out and about, a double double is how we do it. Canadians love double doubles, and we love Tim Hortons. It's shit, but its cheap and it does the trick.
Well, try asking a Australian barista for a double double.... blank stare. Even the words "just a drip coffee please" confuses them, so here ya go dad, get to know the coffee lingo before you come visit me in the land down unda !
Goodnight, Thanks for reading!

Until Tomorrow xo

DAY 4 // Memories In Doodles

Helllo! 4th post comin' atchya.

But first an farm update.

Today we did our third straight day of chipping weeds in the pumpkin fields...and mannn are my arms sore. All I wanted today was new arms to help me make it through the day. But we did it, and Ian was nice enough to let us stay in the house after lunch and do some cleaning rather than heading back to the fields for another hour or two of tackling those damn weeds.

Late afternoon after a little jaunt into town, Reece (Ian's nephew), Ian, Cammie and I went for a drive in the truck around the farm to "chase the moon" (a couple ciders in hand of course). Ian had told us there would be a full moon rising up from the horizon around 6, as the sun set.. so we waited and waited and started doubting this moon business. But by 7, there it was, the brightest yellow, round moon I've ever seen rising from above the trees. And it was fast! I wish I could have gotten a couple snaps of it, but photos just wouldn't do it justice. It was coooool azzz.

Okay so for today's creative "thing" I did a bit of reminiscing on Cam and I's epic month traveling up the northern half of the East Coast. I feel so lucky to have been able to do and see all the awesome things we did in just a few weeks, we covered a lot of ground and everyday was an adventure. I've been journaling quiet a bit throughout my 6 months here and love looking back at what I've wrote, so I feel like this little doodle will bring back those same good memories from our East Coast Journey!


Also, Cammie and I made a Farm Life Countdown Calendar ... satisfying to cross of them dayssss, weoo! 


Until Tomorrow! 
Peace&Love xo
