Out with friends!

My friend messaged me just before midday for a meetup at a park. I had been busy all morning cleaning out Ella's bedroom, so wasn't showered/dressed yet. We had just finished lunch. I quickly made some choc chip muffins, put them in the oven and hopped in the shower. We were out the door at 12:45pm with warm muffins. The park was packed, then heavy rain came and everyone left. We stayed on and the sun came out briefly, then more rain. No one cared. We saw Ella's dancing friend there and her brother, so they joined us. After we went to the ice cream parlour. Everyone is worn out with all the fresh air!

Zig Zag Festival

I had the day to myself yesterday, Kate is away for a couple of days at a friends, and Ella went to the Zigzag Festival up the hill with her friend Hannah. These are some pics that were taken. Looks like they all had a happy time!

Getting There!

We spent the morning painting. I spent the afternoon painting. I called it a day at 5:30pm. The kids had long moved on to better things like having friends over to stay. I'm pleased with my efforts today, but so so tired.

Out the back!

We got home from the show yesterday to find Phil had started the garden extension with this trellising up. The gate still has to be made, painting to be done, and then to get stuck into the "other" side. Can't wait!

Update!!!

Just finished- handmade gate! How awesome is this!!!

We trotted off to the annual Perth Royal Show today. The weather was perfect, mostly sunny and 20 deg. I'll let the photos tell what a great day we all had!
