Lovely summer weekend

It was a scorching hot weekend and happy, happy we were visiting Hannah and Rob and my two wee men. So we packed up a picnic and off we went to Dalby Forest for the day.

Much fun was had playing cricket.

Baby B stayed in the shade out of the sun.

 

Later we went further into the forest.

And walked along beside the water.

Grandad is always handy when little legs get tired.

 

A rest and an ice cream.

Tease Granpa.

Happy Baby B.

Back home where much fun was had with Little C's new kiddiekutter

 

And a spectacle drinking straw.

Men and their iPads.

Baby B on his mat.

What a lovely weekend we have had. Back home now and missing my wee men already.

Nature in the home

This week Lou has asked for something red.

For me it has to be these.

I love tomatoes but especially local freshly picked tomatoes - they taste so sweet and fresh.

Nature in the home.

This week it is "Something White" . My garden plants are slow growing this year and this is my first hydrangea. I love these and intend to dry it and keep it for a display later in the year.

52 weeks of happiness.

 

1. Seeing my little cat snuggled up in the blanket I made for her.

2. Roses growing all over the side of the garden shed.

3. Stuffed rolls for lunch.

4. The stained glass window in a local church. The photo just doesn't do it justice - it is stunning.

A Perfect Evening

A rare sunny evening. I love to sit in the garden on my old bench after tea. What can be more perfect than a sunny spot, a bowl of cherries for desert and a nice coffee. I sit and read till it gets too chilly, enjoying the quiet and the heavenly smell of honeysuckle which grows beside the bench.

Late again.

A very quick striped blanket for Baby B's buggy.

The first honeysuckle flowering. I just love the smell of this, especially in the evening when it seems to get stronger as the sun goes down.

My garden as everything begins to flower.

My cat - she is such a gentle, loving little girl.

A tricky one this week - " A Gift "

I decided on this 

Tiny apples on our apple tree. Not yet in the home I know, but they will be when they are larger and ready to be made into chutney and apple jelly. One of God's many gifts to us.
