spring in our garden

 i just love springtime in our garden we have hundreds of daffodils and they come up in amongst all the weeds and turn the back yard into a glorious riot of colour....

have been a bit slack in cyberspace of late !!!

Well hi there, what has been happening ? Lots I guess
 Smoking more buttons and birdies....looking good too will pop some pics on when i figure out the new technology.
Music and creativity thriving at the Tin Shed this week too.
I went to OLIVER my first true live musical performance ,put on by Launceston Musical Society...I thought it was fantastic...partly because grandson Zac was  in it. The music ,singing and dancing was so entertaining , energetic and fun I could have watched it over again. Zac was one of the pick pocket gang it was very exciting to see him on stage and from all accounts he is now thoroughly addicted to the adulation of the audience and will be wanting to do it again....not sure what mom thinks !
I am now at George Town house sitting for my bro while he and his wife go off toVietnam for a well deserved holiday.It is lovely sitting in the lounge looking upto the mouth of the Tamar at the lighthouse and watching the boats....might just go for a walk to the beach soon...It is a lovely sea change for 3 weeks.

so you think you can dance...

whoa....i have been busy of late helping my daughter emma sew zacs costumes for 'Oliver' and the dance comps.
 Summer (5) danced with her group in the non competitive section on Sunday.. they did extremely well with the tap dance and looked fabulous in a red cowgirl outfits  with tutu etc.the judge had some very good comments for them. Zac (10) danced today in his tap solo and I thought he did fantasticly well even though the judge didn't award him any prize.  apparently he didn't quite keep in time..so what ! i recon he is a winner just getting up there on stage and dancing anyway. Btw  all the other dancers were very good too. Well done to all of you.
 I had a visit from Rowena from Oatlands Handmade  and she selected quite a few bits and pieces for the shop and purchased a lot of my buttons..thanks Tracy.
  I have also been busy throwing cups and saucers for Sussanah at  the Mill Providore and some bowls for my KT and another customer.
 and a huge birthday hug for my grandson Konrad who is 4 today.!!!!
And tommorrow work again and watching Zac dance a duo in the morning. No rest for the wicked....
