spring in the garden

 are we here again already, spring time in the garden, heaps of lavender, wattle, blossom, fresh green shoots, weeds, and slugs, butterflies and bees, all good, heres a few shots of the pretty things I'm sure you will agree.....

 bluebells!! can't wait for these to spread all over the garden.....

 a stunning display from, what we think is an ornamental cherry tree, smells divine, hope it lasts before the rain gets it...

 a little spring gal....

 lots of beetroot

 getting an orange for a snack

counting their savings

 enjoying time with Daddy in the yard

 an art session, a superb teacher Grace showing Tilly gluing techniques!

 Grace found a can of instant icing so easy, and very generous there Grace, not enough baking been done during these holidays had planned much more as well as marmalade making, will put on list of things to do...

I think that may be a ketchup bottle she wants to ice the cakes with :?

sleep time

which leaves me time to paint!

splashing around fun

time to take a splash at the Wagga -Wagga Oasis Aquatic centre, full of fun things for the kids to do in the pool....

And  the wave pool with the large ball that kids tried to climb on and hold on tight while it rolled around in the water, Grace managed to get up on it a few times here she is.....lots and lots of fun and tired out kids at the end. Oh and the coffee was pretty good too.

Cats, goggles and Pirates!

attempts to  break into   big sisters Smiggle pens  -- result - unsuccessful....

further attempts to make friends with Molly cat ... she looks so harmless...

If I could just get a little closer...I'm, sure she will let me.....

Some ipad play for Miss M - well whatever occupies her for a few moments will give me chance to, wash up, hang laundry, vacuum, clean sinks, fold, iron, how long is the list, too long x.....and I just end up seeing how clever our littlest one is.....

and how funny and cute she is.....

how she can make me follow her around the garden to see just what we are going to be laughing at ....

we can take the girl from the pool.....

but when she finds Daddys goggles, the garden is the pool.....
