Flowers, flowers, flowers

I love that we've now come to the time of year that there are plenty flowers in the garden - even if some of those are dandelions!

May 8th: Now that we've planted this pansy in the flowerbed the slugs are leaving it alone. I love how cheery pansies are, especially in Amy's favourite colour.

May 7th: I love how full the flowerbeds get with bluebells, some blue, a few white.

Up to date!!

Yay, I'm up to date now:).

May 6th: We're lucky to have a lovely deli in our village. We went there to buy lunch as it does a nice baguette. 
May 5th: Just a fun shot. My camera happened to be sitting there, I like the look of the smarties tube and Amy's dolls house behind it.

May 4th: It's great how kids can fall asleep in any position.

May 3rd: It seems windmills are popping up on every hill just now. I quite like them, and liked this view while Peter was driving home. It looks like the windmill field has just been planted!

May 1st and 2nd and erm a few more (part 3)

Final batch!! Now nearly up to date, but I did leave my camera outside yesterday in the rain, so don't want to switch it on to upload the photos until I know it's completely dry!

May 2nd - Now it's sunny we bought Amy a new sunhat. She loves it, and at £1 it was a bargain!
May 1st - Amy was fascinated by the police horses in Glasgow, though we see them quite often as they're stabled just outside our village.
April 30th - Ick, I've got the lurgy, nothing to do but snuggle into the sofa with a cup of tea and a box of hankies.
April 29th - I love watching the peonies. Here this bud is re
ady to turn into a gorgeous showy flower.
April 28th - Our Anniversary, we went to Kelvingrove and saw the Dr Who Exhibition. It was great, though Amy found it too loud.
April 27th - My first completed piece for the UKS Arty Farty Jigsaw Swap.

May 1st and 2nd and erm a few more (part 2)

Seemed a bit unfair to put all the photos in one post! Here's the next batch.

April 26th - A bit of a filler photo, one of Peter's shelves of Transformers. He has many more.
April 25th - Went for a walk round the woods again, love having them on our doorstep!
April 24th - We bought a small pansy, and hadn't got round to planting it in the ground yet. I was shocked when I went out this evening to find a huge number of slugs around it!
April 23rd - WiiFit, Peter bought this on Monday, I've been doing it for a
 few days and it's so much fun! I know I'm overweight, but I do apparently have good balance and flexibility. My WiiFit age was 30 which I'm pleased with!
April 22nd - I pass this house on the way to tutor. It seems a shame it's boarded up, wonder what its history is.

May 1st and 2nd and erm a few more

So, April turned out a bit of a hard month to upload photos, what with my lack of computer, then just being so busy! Here's a few photos to get up to date a bit. Hopefully I'll add the rest at some point.

April 21st - Amy had a ball helping me to wash the garden chairs with a sponge, a brush and lots of bubbles!
April 20th - Yay, weather was nice enough to put out the washing, can you tell I have a little girl in the household?
April 19th - Weather was lovely, so Peter and I went to Dean Castle for a stroll.

April 18th - Amy stayed with my parents, so we were able to repaint the living room, remove all the scuffs.

April 17th - Our noticeboard needs a clear out!

April 16th - Yay, my new Mac is here!
