A few more pics...

I just got these photos from my camera, I have no editing soft ware...but hope to get some soon, then I can make my photos look a bit better.
I went with my sister in law and niece to 'Nature Tots', it was so much fun, I loved seeing all the kiddos running free in the forest, stomping around, playing with pine cones and having a generally lovely time.

We had a lovely dinner at the top of Piglets garden, the sunsets in Gurnard are second to none.


 I feel truly blessed to have days like these.

How does your garden grow?

We got a chance to go to the Brighton and Hove Open Gardens on Sunday, I can honestly say that it was one of the best days out I've had in such a long time. We met the sweetest most genuine people and saw the most beautiful secret gardens in the middle of the city that you could never imagine to be where they are. I can't wait to have a big garden! It's made me want to live the 'good life' even more, but also made it even more real that it is actually a possibility in the near future.

Pallets for compost heap.

Strawberry tree? it had beautiful peeling bark.

Snail shells on top of canes in the ground.

We had cake in every garden...well, it would have been rude not too.

Such a sweet idea for when your children have grown out of their wellies! Must remember this one.

I have a mild obsession with chickens at the moment too, these girls were lovely.

A sweet old lady playing wonderful melodies in a stunning garden full of strawberries and flowers.

Out and About in Brighton

We're think of leaving Brighton, nothing personal, but we feel we've out stayed our welcome...nothing has gone wrong but we're ready for a new adventure. With this in mind we have been trying our hardest to make this most of living in this awesome city. It is a very cool city with lots to see and do.


As part of Brighton Fringe Festival the covered the clock tower in ombre T-shirts. Very cool.


It's mackerel season again, which means a free full fridge!



My Hubs caught a whopper!



We finally got to use the portable smoker that my Nana got us  for Christmas a couple of tears ago, SO good!!


We had left over Dewberry Liqueur that we made for the wedding, so we obviously had to make cocktails with it!


Yeah we did!


This photo makes me laugh. a lot. It's normally me pulling stupid faces and him with the blue steel.
Here we are at the No Fit State Circus....so so good, I've you ever get the opportunity, GO!

InstaXmas

 
My chalkboard advent calender, I was trying to be good but then someone bought me a chocolate one..oh well!

 
My homemade wreath, made from ivy, bits of chirstmas tree, a wire coat hanger and a couple of pieces of lavender...so simple.

 
Awesome wrapping paper from paper chase.

 
Christmas sparkles!

 
Winter sky.

 
Cheese, tea and more cheese...I had some VERY strange dreams last night after our little (ahem) cheese binge!

When in Verona

My love surprised me on our anniversary with a trip to Italy. He gets all the points, what a gem!
I love it there so much, if I had no ties I think I would move there in a shot.
