SHINE ON

wow......what a great weekend! everything always seems so much better when the sun is shining, doesn't it? it's easier to get out of bed in the morning, you're filled with more energy, there's loads of different things to do, i love it! so much so, that i've not had time to do any of this for a few days. that's the bad side i suppose, and it's also a bit naughty considering i've only just started. it really doesn't bode well for the future of this blog, especially since we're heading into summer and (hopefully) months of sunshine!

so what have i been up to? well, i completed my button swap package for nikole + it's currently winging it's way over to canada as i write. i now just need to hope that it makes it's journey in one piece + that she likes what i've sent her - i'm keeping my finger's firmly crossed on both counts! once my eagerly awaited package arrives, i'll be sure to post pics + details of both.

apart from that, i had a lovely day with friends on saturday, during which i enjoyed 2007's very first glass of pimms - destined to be the first of many over the coming months. it wasn't quite pimms in it's traditional, heavenly, refreshing sense (laden with ice-cubes, mint, lemon, orange + cucumber), more a thick, syrupy, half lemonade, half pimms kind of affair - it was, however, lovely all the same + to be fair, the poor bar staff did try to find some fruit to put in it!

sunday was spent enjoying the hospitality of two of C and i's very best friends.

a gorgeous day

spent

in the garden playing boules

(our own unorthodox grass version - no skill involved whatsoever,

the contours of the land dictate who wins. they didn't choose me)

taking lots of photos in the garden (loving the apple blossom!)

drinking wine

eating delicious food

and generally having lots of fun

what more could we ask for on a sunday - thanks guys. xx.
