Saying Yes to…

Hey friends, how is your week going so far?

Mine is going so much better than last week, that’s for sure! I’m looking forward to some fun times this week. We are decorating our bedroom atm so it’s a little (understatement) frustrating right now because we are having to sleep downstairs where there isn’t so much room and with Ellie downstairs, who happens to love a cosy bed (who have thought it?) well let’s just say I’ll be glad when we can move back upstairs! It’ll be great to have a beautiful bedroom for the first time since moving here yay!

This morning I was reading Jolie’s blog about saying Yes to wonderful things in life and thought it would be fun to list the things I am saying Yes to right now…

I could go on I think, it’s surprising when you list just how many great things there are!

How about you? What are you saying Yes to right now? Let me know if you decide to blog about this too, it’ll be fun to see your answers.

Sketching in the Garden

DSC00112

After a hard mornings gardening I came out and was admiring the beauty of our garden that has gone from mud heap to tranquil beauty and has turned out even better than I had visualised all those years ago. The sun was shining, it was warm and I just wanted to soak up the atmosphere of my dream garden finally being real.

So I got out a blanket and my sketching stuff and just drew. It was bliss! I wanted to stay out there, I had Paulette’s Divine Romance class to attend and the silly laptop did not like being outside so I packed up and went back inside. I hope I get to enjoy more sketching in the garden, it’s so much fun and I get to add those sketches to the pool at ‘The Journal Project!’

Hoping you’re enjoy sunny days out in your garden too.
