And another weekend is over... it just flies by..

We had breakfast out on friday - it was lovely. The sun was shining and spirits were high... and the food was yummy. We came home and decided a good clean up was in order. The floor was scrubbed and rooms were tidied..


And yesterday, we met friends for a picnic in the park. We spent all day there moving from the sloping grass to the animal corner visiting the emus, deer and monkeys and then moving onto the childrens games. From there we went to the maze and then onto the lake for some wonderful bird watching.

The storks came up close and we watched as she tried to catch a few bites..

just amazing..

and to finish off the day a joint exhibition of sculture and drawings which i really enjoyed.

I hope you are enjoying your weekend too xxx

    Yep, the days are really flying by, aren't they?

    Your weekend looks and sounds just grand... savouring tasty bites, pelicans, exhibitions, games and the odd bit of straightening of the nest, too. You managed to squeeze in so much!
