Wow, 2015 has really started at a high pace!

And Mother Nature is up to her tricks again…with seemingly everywhere in Australia having a hot summer…except us!

All my summer dresses are dying to see some sunshine…instead it is feeling like Autumn already…

However, it is now time for the first Monthly Rewind for the year….what did Zinc Moon get up to in January?

We welcomed in the new year, and I chose a word for 2015…and I can say that it has been a very appropriate word as we have been having heaps of fun!

We went on a helicopter ride over the city…best Christmas present ever!
