It's all happening here

First thank you all for voting on my previous post. If you have not already done so please scroll down and choose your favourite photo. I have to say 'The Mile Stone' is winning..........by a mile but I think I will enter 3 photos so have not made my final choice.


The Mile Stone
A little quiz now.
Spot the difference between these two photos-

Picture 2
Yes, it's started! The garage went on Saturday and the builders arrived on Wednesday. I am going to keep a photographic record of progress but will try and not post too many on this blog. I doubt if you are quite as interested as we are here but it is the BIGGEST thing going on round here so I can hardly ignore it!
Lucy liked the mini digger!
After the builders went home, Lucy had a good sniff around having avoided the area all day while it was noisy and scary.
Walking the plank!
In the next few weeks we expect a new addition to the family with a new niece or nephew due before the end of the month. I plan to make a bunny for the baby and I will either dress it in a pinafore or make some dungarees.
The Orchard in September
The garden has been so neglected this year. It still keeps surprising me though, fruit and flowers keep popping up.
We have a bumper crop of apples this year, both eaters and bakers. Lots of apple crumble and apple pies this autumn then.

Have a good weekend everyone!

  1. The long grass in your garden looks soft and gives a dream like effect to the garden. It looks like a pretty spot to sit and think.

  2. Building work always seems to happen in leaps... and then not much for ages... and then leaps again.

    Our cats, especially one, are very keen on leaving parcels in sand or on insulation just to let our builder know who actually lives here. He is never too pleased however.

    The garden looks lovely, always surprising.

  5. The garden is looking lovely - even if it has been neglected. It has a proper "Orchard" look to it. I'd love to see the extension as it goes up - i'm such a nosey mare!! xxxxx

  7. I've decided that shabby chic is the new way to do gardening. (aka can't be bothered) My garden looks lovely in this new mode! xxx

  8. Lovely garden you have there I prefer the natural look to closely mnanicured any day! Glad the milestone is looking like a major contender! Lucy is so cute.

  10. I like all the photos (I do not think you can go wrong with any of them), but I did leave a comment about my favorites.

    The orchard picture is beautiful too, by the way - and of course, the photos of Lucy are adorable. It's good that she's getting a chance to supervise a little bit :)
