A Weekend Filled With Love

Time certainly flies when you are having fun.  The weekend started with some fair weather, which although didn't last long it did enable some work to be done on the bench.

 
All the struts have now been removed and the metal frame has been painted with black Hammerite.  Slow but steady progress has been made.
 
The Easter décor has been added to.





 
Daffodils are cheap and plentiful at the moment so make a beautiful display.  We had a little visitor, who came bearing gifts.
 

 
He was so excited about his nests that he had made with his Mummy.  The quilt was a huge success both Wilbur and his Mummy loved it and were thrilled with the progress made.
 

 
The top is complete and now ready to have the papers removed, some suitable backing found and the wadding bought.  I haven't enough so nothing more can be done until I have been to the shop, that is one of the problems of living in a small village.
 

 
Wilbur had great fun in the craft room, he loved using the spinning wheel as the helm on his pirate ship.  We also spent many a happy hour with the house...
 

 
The soft play area was visited twice, we strolled along the promenade for short while and had a look around the market.  The dogs were walked, stroked, fed and played with until rain stopped play, what a downpour.
 


 
A wonderful weekend, filled with love and some amazing memories to treasure.  Plenty of photos taken to be made into scrapbooks to bring sunshine to a dull day.  Wilbur felt cold so was wearing his Mummy's scarf, tender moments to record and remember.  How was your weekend?
 
See you soon.

  8. There is something so magical about spending time at Grandma's house. I was blessed to have grown up next door to my Grandmother and I spent many hours there playing and eating and chatting. I adored my Grandmother and tear up just typing this. How blessed your grandchildren are to have a Granny that makes things so special for them when they come to visit. They are going to have the best of memories when they're grown. I mean this from the bottom of my heart. God bless. XOXOXOXO

  22. Thanks for sharing your lovely weekend, which I enjoyed very much from your report :) You're making good progress on Wilbur's quilt and the new bench. I was fighting off a cold, but I did make some good progress on starting to knit another baby hat , and this time got the ribbing done tight enough. Hooray! Wishing you a happy week :)
