April so far

So we are half way through April.
What have we been up to so far?
 There was a trip to Halifax.....just usual shopping and mooching really.

 I did a post about the buildings in Halifax here in February 2013.


Halifax Town Hall
I do love Halifax, it is great for shopping and the buildings are wonderful if you just look above the shop fronts.
I ordered my reading glasses.
Hubby and I attended some dear friends 25th Wedding Anniversary party.
we did Easter crafts at school before we finished for the Easter break.
We have had some lovely mild weather....honest!






While I have been off work I have spent a few hours taking a few photos of the garden and local sites.

 The village is getting ready to welcome the Tour de France, Grand Depart coming through on the 6th July





My old apple tree had one of its limbs removed in the hope we can save it.
In fact we had lots of trees in the garden cut back, it is so much lighter now. We have a dream for the garden but it involves a lot of money and effort....we have neither at the moment!
April continues on the next blog post, when my lovely friend Shan came to stay and I had a birthday....to be continued.

  7. I think your April has been better than mine. Every time it warms up it turns cold and rains, we're worried about the plants rotting in the garden. Your pix were lovely.

  13. Hello Lyn, you took us on a lovely tour here. Loved the photos, Halifax looks like a super city to visit. The first shot of the sheep is picture postcard, the ones of the pink flowers with the rainbow behind them, is gorgeous. In fact it's hard to pick a favorite because each one had its own particularly beauty. Wishing you have a great weekend.
