Woohoo it's Friday and I'm here on time with my Fave Five post. Susanne keeps us on track, reminding us each week to look for the blessings we've had, post them on our blogs and then link up here.
Thank you Susanne.
1. Extended family. Last Saturday we were at the wedding of our niece Megan. She is the daughter of Hubby's brother. It was such a lovely day and the feeling of love throughout the day was wonderful. All Hubby's siblings, partners, their kids and partners were there with just a couple of exceptions - our son and his wife in the US for obvious reasons. I blogged about it in more detail here but here's a picture of the happy couple - and they definitely are a happy couple.
2. Sunshine after the rain. We had much needed rain earlier in the week but now the sun has returned and it's warming up. Summer is coming.
3. Flowers on my tomato plants - that means tomatoes right? I only have a couple of plants that my neighbour gave me but I'm keeping them watered and they get plenty of sun.
4. My online purchases arrived:
Thankfully the watch strap also came with a tool to remove links from the strap - I had to take out five to get it to fit my wrist and it's still far from tight.
5) Despite getting the yarn winder above today I've already started another project with some cotton yarn I already had:
Regular visitors will remember Maisoe, made for my granddaughter:
I thought it would be nice for Maisie to have a change of clothes so I'm making her a skirt and jumper. I started it at the Knit and Natter session this week.
Whether she will keep them on not is another matter. My daughter informed me earlier that Maisie is currently naked lol.
Have a good weekend all.
Congrats to your niece! love her wedding gown.
ReplyDeleteYou have had a good week of blessings!
HAPPY WEEKEND
I haven't been to a wedding in ages, oh hang on there was my daughter's wedding but that was very low key only the brides parents, the grooms parents, the celebrant and a friend of the grooms mother who helped with the cooking and of course their two daughters, it was held in the grooms parents apartment. We need more sunny days to dry everything out after having so much rain lately. Lastly Maisie is so cute
ReplyDeleteYour niece’s veil is gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteMaisie is so cute, I'm sure your granddaughter loves her <3 Your niece is a beautiful bride! The veil is just lovely.
ReplyDeleteWeddings are always so special! Maise is cute and reminds me of Elliot, a mouse that I took on a cruise and the cruise log was told by Elliot. Elliot was owned by a teacher and he traveled all over the world.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to your niece and her new husband!
ReplyDeleteI was glad of the rain too, it was needed and today has been lovely! It does feel like summer is coming!
Yep, flowers on your tomato plants means the tomatoes are coming! Good luck with them.
That is a fancy strap for your Fitbit!
Sounds like the wedding was lovely! And such a good time to visit with extended family. We've had lots of rain, too. I know it's good for the plants, but I sure do love when the sun comes back out. The dressy watchband looks nice! It's funny how often dolls and toys are without clothes. I love Maisoe's outfit. Is a jumper what Americans would call a sweater?
ReplyDeleteHa Ha ... a naked Maisie. Cannot wait to see her new outfits.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the sunshine my friend.

What a lovely couple! Congrats to them. I love weddings. We had a week of grey and rain too but it's looking sunny out there now. It's a good thing because my flowers in planters are starting to look a little water logged. Naked Maise made me laugh. It's a dilemma the dolls around here face on a daily basis. What is it about kids liking their dolls naked?
