Sickness

It's been a week of sickness for Ella and I. Sore throats, tummy bugs and headaches.

I hope everyone else is fine and dandy!

Saturday

 It's been a busy afternoon (after 6 classes of dancing between 3 girls) a visit to the garden centre and some planting done in the vegie garden that Phil made for me out of recycled materials. We planted lettuce, beetroot, silverbeet, cauliflower, sweetcorn, carrots and pumpkin and snow peas.

Last week we bought some more trees to add to our list of what we want to grow in our backyard.

The feijoa tree

The passionfruit which will grow along a trellis

The lime tree which will go in a pot to match the lemon tree

Snow Peas

The capsicums are growing well

My little helper with the dirty face

Ruby and Jonah are staying tonight while Amie & Brendan attend a wedding. We headed up the hill to the park for tea and a play. 

Kate then took the camera and took the following photos of the others playing!

Amie and Cake!

Happy Birthday to our beautiful Amie! 24 years old!

Ella's Tea Party

Today Ella celebrated her birthday with a tea party at Flying Teapots with her closest friends, and of course Kate & Ruby. None of her friends had been before either, so it was a new and exciting experience for all the young ladies!

All the girls called out for Alice!

Alice arrived and escorted the girls to Wonderland!

There was fine china and delicious eats!

Alice poured rose-petal tea for the young ladies
