April

April should have seen a post about St George and English traditions etc but the children had other ideas! Den building was their plan for the week, so the below picture, shows their starting point, which was quickly built into a camp and the boxes were turned into cars, other than asking me to cut out a stirring wheel, providing pegs and felt pens, they were very busy and happy without too much adult intervention wanted or needed.

With the warmer weather and few sunny days my thoughts turned to decluttering and cleaning, I got as far as sorting out my craft basket and wonder if I could legitimately say I've spent the day decluttering and tidying? As I had sorted out my craft basket and finishing of various projects, including 2 outfits for E, as well as doing some crafts with G.

We also had some time sorting out the garden, G had chosen some plants for the tub on our front doorstep and they are finally out in full colour.

We had also taken a trip to the garden centre and G and I chose a few plants to do some pots for the patio, they look lovely and a week on the rabbit has yet to try and eat these.

I love the colour of these wall flowers, they make a change from the normal colours.
