Everyday Life

Terry is currently on his days off (and is out whipper snippering the garden) Yesterday we went to Mum and Dad's for lunch and ended up taking a picnic to park by the river and having a drink at the Aqucaf after lunch and a bit of a play.
 
Today, Darcy, Quinn and I had a walk to the park to meet Georgina and her little boy Samuel for a play. Georgina moved here about 3 months before we did, and our paths have crossed in one way or another over the past 6 years (Adelaide's a bit like that!) and we bumped into each other again just after we moved down here, she lives about 10 minutes from us and Samuel is a year younger than Darcy.
 
Here's Terry building the planter for my new lemon tree, it's now all stained and in place, he is going to make one more to go between the veggie patch and the lemon tree, not sure what we will put in there yet. The tomato plants in the veggie patch are doing well, we have some corn and broccoli growing too.
 
The next project is the boring side of the house around by our spare bedroom, it's pretty uninspiring at the moment and the view from the spare room isn't great, so I want to plant a few things and make it look a bit nicer.

This is as far as I've got so far; I've put up some of the planters I had for my birthday and bought a brown pot from the op shop. I need to have a look in the garden centre for some plants to try and grow down the wall to add a bit of greenery and colour


Stage 1...
 Our gorgeous little men...these are a few photos we took today whilst we were playing. It's getting harder to take photos of Darcy as he wants to be the photographer, but I managed to get a nice one (he's spent most of the Summer naked!)


Quinn is growing up far too fast for my liking, he's started rolling from his belly to his back and has a new love of his feet. He is getting cheekier by the day and finds it hilarious when we take his arms out of his top and giggles madly while we try to do it!!!
