Welcome to the bloggy home of Claire Chadwick. I'm the face & designer behind Scissors Paper Rock Designs, a wife to Chris, Mummy to the Divine Miss Ella & our newest addition; Baby Ryder. I'm a Primary School Teacher by trade, but recently shut my classroom door to pursue other BIG dreams of Freelance Writing. I am also excited to announce that my first Children's Picture Book {So Many Sounds} will hit stores in June 2013. This blog is my little online space where I weave together my reflections and stories of Motherhood. I illustrate with photos.... and drink plenty of coffee to keep me going. I'm on a mission to turn the mundane moments of motherhood into MAGICAL ones. 

Join me in seeping as much goodness out of life, {whilst I continue to drink way too much coffee & take way too many photos} and together we can make the most of our WILD & PRECIOUS LIVES!

I'd love to hear from you....comment on my posts or send me an email. Buckle up, Enjoy the ride!

Live! Laugh! Love!

Quick Three.....{countries I'd like to visit}

This morning I'm playing along with Kasiabear's fun weekly blog link; quick three!

 

 

This week's QUICK THREE is..... Countries I'd Like to Visit!

{1} USA ~ With 1 of my Brothers, his wife & their 3 little children living in the USA again for the next 2-3 years.....and Chris's brother about to move to New York for a year or 2..... I have a massive itch to get over there!!!! And to get there for a White Christmas would be even more perfect!!! I've always wanted to travel parts of the USA, but even more so, now that I'm a Mumma! I want to take Ella to Disney Land :)

{2} And while I've made the trip all the way over there....I'd like to go to Canada!! Another place I've always wanted to experience....but now for different reasons :) I don't want to go there to even travel it or stay in fancy hotels....I have a very special friend living in Canada with her husband & 2 gorgeous babies!! Oh how I'd love to spend a week {or more} cozied up in their home with them....chatting person to person over MANY coffees, while the kids play & explore!! It'll happen one day.....IT WILL :)

{3} I haven't left Australian shores in the past 10 years! The last time I went OS was in 1997 to Africa & England with stops in Singapore & Paris. Although, I have every desire to head back to these places again one day....it's THAILAND that I really want to experience soon. Chris & I have so nearly booked a holiday there several times in the last few years. It's a fairly 'cheap' holiday, so it's not so much money holding us back....it's that I really would love to go there....child-free :) I want to lay in the sun & sip cocktails on the beach, dine late, sleep late, snorkel, ride elephants, browse the cheap markets, buy MANY knock-offs {lol} & simply RELAX.....couple style :) But.....I/we haven't had the guts to leave Ella yet....I think she'd be fine for a week with her Grandparents....but it's us....I don't know how well, we'd cope setting off without her :) I'll get the guts to do it one day......but probably by then, she'll be older enough to come too LOL :)

So, that's my 3! Of course, I have more holiday destinations stored away in my future plans & heart....but for now...that's my TOP 3 :)

Where would you love to jetset off to right now? Do you have a Top 3?
