April Happenings

I haven't posted in a while, so this is a quick over view of April for the sake of continuity and the curiosity of some.

Crystal and Blossom making fondant flowers.

An awesome tomato I grew! {Mr Wesley Hillingham}

Our chocolate basket.  Even though we don't "do" Easter, we certainly "DO" chocolate!!

Miss Moppett.  

Oh, look...a puddle!!  Arrow must sample EVERY puddle.

Gathering wild Cape Gooseberries.

The day I found a dead hawk on the road.  I removed it as it's mate was trying to land near it risking it's own death, brought it home for the children to look over, and gave it an honorable burial in my garden.

Butterfly's baking.

Pretty teatime.

Butterfly's beautiful fondant cake.

It Rained!!

We have had a very hot dry January.  Summer came quickly and hot, and everything looked thirsty and dusty!  And then it rained.  A good all day rain.  

All the worms and snails and flies and mosquitos were dancing their happy little dances, and the flowers bobbed their pretty little heads in joy!

And my little boys donned their rain jackets and headed out to the first puddle they could find!!

I wondered why my house had become so quiet!  Good fun.
