ANZAC Day

{Poppies for the ANZAC's}

Saturday was ANZAC Day, and also marked the 100th anniversary of our troops landing at Gallipoli. I really enjoyed seeing all the coverage over the last week on all the news programmes, and particularly appreciated all the stories finally coming to the surface about all the brave ANZAC women that bravely and boldly went to war as well. Spending time remembering and reflecting on how our ancestors faced incredible danger, allowing us to live a peaceful life, makes me feel pretty grateful if I’m honest.

Today the public holiday is carried over, so I’ll be spending the afternoon celebrating with friends at a baby shower (our first as a group, eek!).

If you’re in New Zealand or Australia, I hope you enjoy the long weekend of remembrance.


Lest we forget,
