Our garden project - Starting the foundations

Last weeks project was starting the dig - this week we began filling in where we dug out: Yet again it all feels terribly backwards & George has remarked how much he wishes we were just "putting the damn shed on the flat part of the garden" but I love it & I know it will look awesome when it's all done.

Evelyn's 4 month update

It feels like a lot longer than a month since I last wrote one of these, I really look forward to them. As silly as it sounds I don't think I would keep such a strict record of her development if it wasn't for these updates & I know I'm going to be grateful in the years to come.

Our garden project - The big dig

Because the weather's been so gorgeous we've spent a lot of time outdoors & we decided it would be a good time to start the long process of landscaping our garden. We lived in a flat for a short while a few years ago & we really missed having somewhere to burn burgers & sip pimms so I've been super excited about having an outdoor space to personalise & prune.

Evelyn's 3 months update

It feels like such a long time since Evelyn's 2 month update but somehow I also cannot believe she is already 3 months - isn't it funny how that works?

A trip to Sweden - 50 year wedding anniversary.

George & me (how did I get so lucky?)

Sorry I haven't been blogging much lately; I've been unbelievably busy. We got back from Sweden on Tuesday & since then I've been buying, building & unpacking things for the house (I've quite literally been making Ikea furniture from 6am until 10pm.) There's also the small problem that our internet is not up & running yet & wont be until after the 16th (pretty mad about that really) so I've had to sneak back to mum & dads to post this.
