It's Friday again

First week back at school over and we're looking forward to the weekend.

This morning I picked up Mum and Dad and we went to Wakehurst Place. We haven't been there for a while and every time I go I think I should go more often. Today was no exception. It was so nice to just walk around the gardens and get some fresh air. It's so peaceful (well it was when we went just after they'd opened =o) ). We enjoyed seeing all the new leaves on the trees and the bluebells were starting to come out. It's such a pretty time of year. I love the seasons in England after South Africa where it used to be virtually summer all year round (though I miss that too!). We've been here 16 years now and I still love seeing the changing seasons. I love Spring because it's bringing the warmer weather and the plants all come back to life again. But I also love Autumn and seeing the leaves changing colour - just don't like the fact that it's bringing the colder weather too.

Anyway, enough ramblings and a few photos from this morning.

And no, I don't know who the little children are but they were cute regardless =p

Have a good evening

Today I've ......

• Taken Claire to the bus stop
• Done the school runs (morning and afternoon)
• Done 3 loads of washing
• Defrosted the fridge
• Tidied Claire's bedroom
• Picked up in Emily's bedroom
• Done the ironing
• Made 2 cards
• Cooked dinner
• Loaded the dishwasher
• Written a couple of emails
• Glanced at blogs to see who's updated (for reading later)
• Spent some time with Jon
• Made sure the cat's had his tablets (he had a big abscess at the weekend)
• Made a few phone calls I'd have liked to put off!

I think that'll do for now. I'm just about to get Emily upstairs to start getting ready for bed.

I will try and post more often and take some photos!

Have a good evening

We had visitors today

Guess who came to visit today?

Yes, Theresa and Tyler popped in to visit us after they'd been to the clinic this afternoon. I can't believe that Tyler is nearly 3 months old and now weighs 12lb15oz. He's so sweet and took a shine to Emily, giving her lots of smiles. We also got some "conversation" from him today =o)

Here are a few of the photos I took this afternoon - more on the website on Sunday!

Watching Mummy

Smiles for Emily Far away!I'm sure there'll be plenty more walking with Emily in the months to come.

Have a good evening

Bear with me ....

I know I haven't been very forthcoming the past couple of weeks but it's school holidays! Please bear with me and I'll try and get back to blogging once the schools go back next week. Until then, have a good weekend xx
