Catch up

All creation seems to be celebrating as we experience the most gorgeous weather. Cooler temperatures, sunny days and even some rain. Autumn has arrived and it is wonderful. Fresh, crisp new days emerge filled with promise, especially up at the cottage as we look out from our front verandah (above) over the beautiful countryside.


We've also been celebrating and this is little Belle all dressed up for her Mum's birthday last week. She looked so sweet in her pretty dress and she charmed all the visiting friends and relatives. "Bella". (Her Mum is also looking lovely and doing very well but her Dad has been a little poorly lately).

With only two weeks until holidays, my darling is counting down the days as he is taking his hockey boys to New Zealand for a tour. A great time has been planned. I hope to potter around at home, just taking time for simple pleasures including a cot blanket I have started crocheting. It is an afghan which is based on granny squares and I will write about it with photos of my progress soon.
