where did the summer go?

It is July.....it is warm but not sunny, grey most days if we are lucky we get a blue sky with small white fluffy clouds but up until now these have been few and far between.


We had been lucky enough to have our veggie and soft fruit produce...



 I did a few cat portraits as raffle prizes for The Yorkshire Cat Rescue and Bart's. Pop over to my other blog to take a peek...(link here)





The cats are never very far away.....


 We tried to keep the children that were in school entertained with walks and plenty of activities and playing outside.






Little gifts for my class..























It was so sad as we were unable to give our year six children the send off they deserved but we tried to make it a good one for them as they take the next step in their journey.
I had my first haircut post lockdown!
 I am in the middle of an online course with Helen Hallows. The Garden Sketchbook.....I'm loving it!

Collecting poppy seeds



















 I made this little tin for my friend...



 visited my mum....

So we have finished school. I can honestly say we all deserve a break it has been very stressful and full on but as of today six whole weeks await......

  1. Lovely photos as always of your beautiful cats and garden. Summer does seem to have hidden itself, it appeared slightly yesterday but it's back to rain and grey skies today. Enjoy your 'summer' break:)

  2. what a lovely post Lyn, I too a peek at your cat portraits, they are beautiful, I bet the owners treasure them. You are very talented. Your garden/green houses are looking amazing. I liked the pirate/treasure project - I know it's for kids but I would have enjoyed taking part! Have a restful summer. Bettyx

  3. You - and thousands of other teachers - do indeed deserve a break. I live abroad and am fortunate to be retired, but it has made me very angry seeing all the negative stuff written about teachers in the UK media during these very difficult times!
    Hope you have a restful and pleasant time with your lovely cats and garden.

  4. Your weather may have not been great but you have posted inspiring photographs of the cats, garden and school activities. I hope some of the hot weather in the south of the Uk has made it north to you. Relax and enjoy the break.
