Lazy, hazy days

Well, we're taking this welcome bit of sunshine in our stride, and beginning to relax into the school holidays.....walks with the dog, beaches, trees, crochet, picnics.........just perfect!


Beach combing




Shell collections


Displays 



'Who you lookin' at?'


Wonderful hydrangeas


Early morning stillness



Dappled sunlight through the trees



Handsome fella on our walk this morning (a young cormorant??)


The art of building a castle


I can see the sea!



I have worn shorts (yes, that was where they great reflective light came from) and ....this is a big step forward, I have crocheted on the beach.....an unheard of thing for me, who has been known to squirm at the thought previously....although it was cotton, and not wool...I'm not ready for wool yet....baby-steps.

Biggest boy has been at a cub jamboree to celebrate the Olympics and is promised a 'real-metal' gold medal tomorrow....very exciting.

For those of you interested in the Malteser Square recipe, you can find the recipe here.....I warn you though,it is the beginning of a very slippery slope.......don't do it!

I will leave you with the wise words of my three- year old.

Littlest: "Mummy, aliens don't wee"

Me: "Really...don't they?"

Littlest: "Nope, they only poo"
