Day One Hundred and Fifty-Nine

Busy

There were some very busy bees in the garden today. Managed to snap a couple while they 'worked'.

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Eight

Labour's Fruits

My Dad has a flourishing vegetable patch at the bottom of the garden and there's been something of an explosion of courgettes - he's not alone though. My Mum tried to give some away to the neighbours but everyone seems inundated! All the more for us then, and very delicious they were too!

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Seven

Stars and Splashes

Another sunny day so another chance to break out the pool. We're definitely having a brilliant summer weatherwise!
Both Evie and Rosie love the water, it's nigh on impossible to keep them out of it, in fact I'm convinced they're both part labrador!

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Six

Blushing Rose

I love the hint of pink on the edge of these petals.
There are some truly gorgeous flowers in my Dad's garden.

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Five

Lawnmower

I think if all chores could be this much fun, life would be a lot more pleasant!

Another warm, fairly peaceful day, with a beautiful sunset.

The night though was spent chasing a thunderstorm that never quite arrived. Hopefully I'll manage that elusive lightning shot before long!

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Four

Eight Months

I honestly can't believe how quickly the time has flown.
Rosie is now eight months old - trying to crawl and currently adding to her budding tooth collection on a weekly basis (or so it seems!) We're definitely seeing more and more of her own little personality coming through which is awesome!
These were actually taken yesterday but wanted to use them for today...so I am! ;-)

"Not entirely sure what I think of this show..."

"Sometimes, Daddy, you don't seem as tall."

"Wait a minute, I'm how old now?!"

Looks like we have two girls with fantastic characters...we're very lucky.

Day One Hundred and Fifty-Three

Sculpture Park

We visited another nearby place I've heard of many times but never been to, until today that is. The Yorkshire Sculpture Park. I'll admit, I'm no expert on sculpture but what there is to see is very interesting. There was also a family event happening so plenty for the little ones to enjoy too.
Have to admit though I found some of the more natural sculpture more my cup of tea.
