good things

To show that things haven't been all doom and gloom around here, I'm posting a few random pictures from the weekend.

I came across my two angels sitting together on the deck, chatting away pleasantly. Nothing makes a mum's heart more glad.

I made this granola. Yum! It tastes SO good and it smells divine. David has always made his own yoghurt - they are a perfect match. So are we. ;-) I think I have been eating it for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Audrey helped me to water the garden on Saturday. Each week and I look at her and notice little changes. She is growing up so fast.

I bought the last lot of fabric (the wrapped parcel) and the batting to finish my quilt. I'm really excited about this last step! I also bought fabric to make this for Audrey. Thank you mum, dad, David and Melanie for my wonderful birthday gift vouchers!! They were like treasure in my pocket.

I finished listening to The Forgotten Garden on audio. It was really relaxing, listening to an audio book. I listened to it on the bus to work, I listened to it while I ironed and did other housework. it was a fun story about the sort of adventure I'd like to have. I used to spend a lot of time researching family history.

Now I am reading a Barbara Kingsolver novel when travelling on the bus to work and during my lunchtime. Jane Eyre is my before bed book, the one beside my bed that I pick up before sleep comes. So all in all, things are good.
