HOW TIME FLIES

I can't believe it has been 5 weeks since I last did a post

Like everyone else my life has been so busy - think we all need to find the time to relax

As always lots has been happening with my ever expanding family

We spend a lot of time together - I am so lucky to have my family sharing their lives with me



 My eldest daughter Melanie had a 'Surprise Wedding' at her and Aaron's Engagement party on 16th April A quick change of clothes, grabbing the hidden bouquets and on her fathers arm the wedding began

It was a lovely wedding with only 8 of us knowing it was to happen. melanie's children Lachlan and Chloe were so excited when they were told about the wedding.

I have been having lots of fun with the grandchildren

I helped Lachlan and Chloe make their Easter Hats for the Easter Parade at school

Riley was having fun 'playing with the pegs' and Holly wanted to help him

As of 6th June when daughter Amy goes back to work I will be looking after these two little treasures 2 days a week.



Here is little Miss Evie smiling away at her Grandad

I have been finding some time to create a few pieces of jewellery

 I really enjoy this, especially when they are created using all vintage cottons, ribbons, beads and buttons

 The neckalces look so pretty especially with the combo of vintage buttons and beads

We have also been spending some time in Melbourne by the Yarra River

We have had some amazing Autumn Days

Max and I enjoyed our stay at Daylesford at the Cherry Tree Cottage B&B

 Just look at the size of this delicious breakfast we were served.

No need for another meal that day!

Hope to find some time to catch up on all the latest on your blogs
