On the farm...

27 Jun 2013






















These pictures are from last weekend when we spent the day at Fishers Farm. The kids had a great time and were just the right age to enjoy most of the rides there. Archie especially loved the tractor ride (he is tractor obsessed!) and the toddler zip wire - such a great idea! Elizabeth loved the trampolines and the panning for gems. She proudly took her little bag of treasure in the next day to show all her little friends.

Nature in the home - white

26 Jun 2013




These pretty white flowers (sorry I don't know what they're called!) were separated from a larger bunch I bought for myself this week. I'm slightly obsessed with saving all my jars and bottles lately, they make such perfect little vases and look quite sweet when decorated with pieces of lace, twine or washi tape too!

Linking in with lovely Lou of little green shed and her nature in the home series.
