Making our home

It’s flower paint!

Max loves to use his dad’s tools. Screwdrivers, spanners and especially hammers! So when I came across flower pounding on Rhythm of the Home (love that site!) I knew we had to give it a try!

Max carried my little basket from when I was small, and we wandered around the garden choosing our flower palette. We picked lavender, bottle brush, pansies, love-in-the-mist and many others.

When I got the hammers out and helped Max lay his flowers on paper, with tea towels on top, he seemed rather curious! What would we use the hammer for?! Once he saw what to do, off he went – pounding away happily.

 

He kept peeking as he went, and when he saw what was happening cried ‘it’s flower paint!’

 

Flower paint indeed *grin*

Blessings, Kelly

Chasing chooks!

The minute we arrived at my mum’s house Master D ran to get the egg basket and chook food. Then off he went up to the chooks 🙂
 
Those naughty chooks escaped on us again (although that’s half the fun isn’t it!)! While the chooks played, Master D excitedly gathered up the eggs – counting as he went ‘one, two, three, four, five eggs!’. ‘You good little chookies’ said I.

While we chased the chooks around the yard Little Miss Q enjoyed lying on a blanket in the shade of a big tree, gazing into the magical garden. 

Before heading home we said hello to Mr Gnome and found he had a new pet! What fun 🙂
