Sweet peas cascading over the kids cubby house. They smell beautiful as they cast their

Hello Spring! September garden

Spring rolls into Summer

The weather over the weekend was great as Spring rolled into Summer. It's taken a while for the sun to warm our skin down south.

On Saturday Glen street was blocked off, as hometown girl, Ellie Lovegrove from XFactor fame, entertained us. It was good to see her back in town after she'd moved to Adelaide.

Sunday was a bit more overcast, but warm enough  for the kids to have a dip at our local swimming lake. We ate chips and sauce from the lake shop for lunch, with about 30 friendly seagulls trying to help us.

New life in the garden

When Boggy mentioned the other day there was a nest in one of the trees I didn't take much notice.

On Sunday he came in and said there was a bird sitting in it if I wanted to go out and take photos. 

I never noticed it before, it's at head height tucked away in the fork of a tree, right next to a garden path.

Mother bird flew out of the nest when the kids came around being noisy, revealing three(I think) little babies.
