Its been ideal for gardening and we achieved lots yesterday, hedges trimmed, border clearing, veg garden rotavated.
We changed the clocks last night to British Summer Time, thus losing an hour, somewhat mean on Mothering Sunday don't you think? I got beautiful flowers and cards from the girls and spent the afternoon playing around with some boxes Peter brought home from one of his customers. They make great planters.

Of course little Miss J came to visit, if you missed the post from earlier in the week here is another chance to
see the photographs I took of her.
So all in all a good, productive weekend. Still lots to do in the garden, but now we have lighter evenings we can get out after dinner. Hope you all had a great weekend too.
Looks like spring has really sprung in your area. Love the planter boxes. The blue is so cheerful.
ReplyDeleteSo clever with the boxes. I know you will enjoy the extra light in the evening.
ReplyDeleteA very Happy Mothering day to you. Daffodils have a special place in my heart.
The planter looks wonderful. Love the colour!
ReplyDeleteWhy would they throw away those boxes? I think you're brilliant to repurpose them into planters! Little Miss J is adorable!
