Snap Happy

Today has been all about restful pursuits...as in soaking up some vitamin D...

Some tentative attempts at dehydrating...

Pegging out...

Taking a woodland walk...

Tea by the beach... 

Now some feet up time on the sofa...

Bliss..




Japanese Anemones in the garden...





Elderberries ripening there too...





Down the lane I found this little beauty...





And this one...





Looking up...





And around...




Didn't manage to pick many blackberries on my walk though...






Think this may be a wild rose burr...




I always feel at home in this part of the woodland...I believe the stone used to make our cottage was from this place 200 years ago...





Finally the sun over the water...not a bad place to eat fish and chips...

Blessings, J. x

The Deed Has Been Done

Well how time flies...youngest married her caveman nearly two weeks ago and had a party to celebrate just over one week ago...we are still in clear up and recovery mode.

Both events were plagued by rather unseasonal weather...standing on a cliff top trying to beat the next shower in strong winds really made that visit to the hairdresser a bit of a waste of time...even so both days turned out to be lovely seeing family and friends and celebrating with the newlyweds.




One newly married young lady!






Daughter in law to be made and assembled the cake... son made the flowers! Not the traditional cake decoration...but very apt for the couple...





Flowers from our garden adorned the tables...



 The first welcome drinks ready to go...

And then we partied...and I unashamedly changed into a pair of comfortable trainers and danced the night away!!

Hope to be back soon...but life is very hectic at the moment and quite frankly I'm shattered!
