the fruits of my labour

I don’t want this to be a blog about how or why I never post to my blog. So I won’t mention it, if you don’t. Moving on…

We got back from two weeks staying with my parents in Tasmania on Saturday. We had a lovely, relaxing and rather warm time. Some of the highlights:

Picking radishes with Grandpa

Observing the two frogs living (of their own accord) in Mum and Dad's dining room

Visiting the beautiful Tamar Valley

Admiring all the bees and bumblebees working hard in the lavender

Raiding the blueberry patch

Swims in the backyard pool, lovingly cleaned by Dad

Starting and finishing a 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle

Appreciating the magnificent sunflowers

Other highlights included a  second second birthday party for Isobel (more on the first later), visiting the monkeys at Launceston City Park, sewing (yes, actual sewing!), spending time with family (of course), games of Uno and 500 and lots of good food and drink. It was a bit of a shock to come back to reality, but I’m excited about this year and what it may bring.
