Christmas and birthdays all at once

 
That's precisely how it's been for us.
And now all of a sudden......

 

And it was perfect.
Lobster......(for special occasions only) and the yummiest salad, baked potato and dessert you could imagine.
 

Bill bought the lobster ( sneakily left in the fridge as the safest place of all seeing I don't do the cooking much anymore! ) and Amy and Helen did the rest.





 

The sweetest card from our little Pilbara boy.
Love hearts and flowers.
What could be more perfect.
And check out that fancy y. 

 

Happy Birthday to me.


And then, just  like that, it's nearly Christmas.
How the heck did that happen?

This week I will put out .....
 

Sew and sew
Zero......again!


Around the garden path last week.
 
Joanne's zucchini plant looking very happy after being yanked out of the vegie patch at her place and reinstated in ours.


Another attempt at growing sunflowers. Let's see how long it takes for the earwigs to strike.
 

The apple trees have finally worked out which apples are staying and which apples need to go.  They are growing like nobody's business.
 

Bill's prized cherries are nearly ready to pick I think.

Lupins.
First time I've been able to get them to this stage. Gorgeous thing.
Some more of that verticality that I love.
 


Christmas is in Dampier this year for our precious  little tribe.
 
 

But they'll be gracing our tree inside a bauble!




 


Have a wonderful week everyone.
PS

    1. Oh it was delicious. I'd forgotten how "dense" the crayfish meat is. A little goes a long way. Crayfish and yabbies are still my faves. Merry Christmas to you guys too. 😘

  3. Thanks Jo. It's been fun experimenting with a few new plants/ flowers. And of course I love to dig up and divide and replant. 😊
