Pumpkins, More Pumpkins and a Pumpkin Gift

24 Oct

It’s been a stay home day today as the wind howled, the rain fell and the temperature dropped so it was lovely to receive photos from my dear SIL of pumpkins in the Botanical Gardens of Atlanta, Georgia. Thank you V. perfect timing!

Pumpkins

More Pumpkins

It was very special too, to receive a gift in the post today of a beautifully knitted pumpkin which will take pride of place on our table through this Hallowe’eny time of year.

Thank you so much, Judith. I love how the knitted pumpkin is such a perfect replica of the ones in the photo above.

Visit, Moth and Frog

28 Jan

It has been a grey day today with a bitter wind blowing so we haven’t ventured out but a lovely friend from choir did and came to visit this morning bringing with her some Narcissi bulbs growing in a pot, my favourites! Thank you so much, S, for cheering me up this morning. We will nurture them into flowering and then I will show you.

My photos today are from our visit to Atlanta last year when we went to the Botanical Gardens.

There were frogs like this all over the garden. I loved this one reading to his froglet. I love how the froglet is all snuggled up to enjoy the story. I’m missing our Grandbabies snuggling up for a good read.
