Colour from the garden
Colour is finally putting in an appearance, the spring bulbs are long over, the forget me nots are done, the iris are on their last shout
Now its the turn of the Foxgloves -I love them, each year they come up just a little different
and then ..........
the daisies are just starting but they are for another day

Party Time
Yesterday was Rufus' 3rd birthday party. He isn't actually 3 until Tuesday, but it made more sense to have his party at the weekend.
The plan had been to have a picnic at the Gardens of Surprises at Burghley, but as usual the weather forecast wasn't playing ball. Rebecca was lucky to be able to get the Girl Guide's Hall at short notice and only being 2 streets away, worked out fine. Typically, the weather stayed fine but was very windy and with so many small babies in the mix would have been difficult plus the older children would have been very cold in the water. We still went with the picnic theme but indoors
Friday Rebecca had to go into work for the morning , so I had Laurie whilst Rufus was with his Nana. To say Laurie wasn't too happy might be an understatement.
Friday afternoon Rebecca's kitchen became cake central
So there you have it a 3rd birthday party done and dusted. We get to do it all again in 6 weeks for Laurie's 1st birthday/naming. This time it will be at our home, same people but with more family added to the mix. Please pray for sun - remember Rufus' 1st party and photos here
I would just like to add that Rebecca and Tim have a lovely group of friends, so friendly and chatty, its a pleasure to be in their company. See you all soon
