on the first day of spring...





we visited the butcher, the baker and the chocolate maker. we prepared gifts and cards for dads. my girl recorded her first hit song {in her pajamas no less}. we bought beetroot seeds at the environment centre. the fish man was selling herring and flathead he caught today. the birds were singing. we washed dolls clothes and hung them out to dry. we had lunch with the daddy-o up at the shack. we got ready for mamabaking tomorrow. we had raw milk delivered in glass bottles. my new kitchen and laundry were very nearly finished. we wore thongs and short sleeves and were perfectly warm enough. there was a happy sunshiney buzz about town.

    It sounds like you've had a great first day of Spring day.
    You have such a pretty backyard, that chook looks like one lucky creature too with all that space. x

    I think you have a singer in the making there Rach...she is just such a cutie!!

    Would you believe it's thunderstorming here now? Pelting down, grey and cold.

    I remember the days of getting milk delivered in bottles...how times have changed.
