Birthday - {Weekending}

 Saturday:

Quiet, early morning crafting,

My favourite time of day to make and create.

I channeled some of the creative energy that has been building up over the last week or so into my newly carded and plant dyed Lincoln Long wool, oh, the bliss.

House stepped a little over the comfortably messy mark into the just too messy mark while I was lost in my creative "zone".

This Mama grumbled a little about it while scurrying about shoving little pieces of wayward chaos into cupboards and drawers, And then internally grumbled about grumbling.

Some outdoor refreshment was required, garden play and an impromptu dolly tea party with invitations and everything.

The girls get lost in their own world so quickly, and often the less adult intervention the better.

Beatrix Potter Rabbit Tales before bed ended the day on a gentle note.

Sunday:

Tani and I went to The George in Stamford for afternoon tea as a birthday treat (for him)

We had full high tea with sandwich selection, some Victoria sandwich and scones with cream and jam finished off with a lovely glass of champagne.
 Does teatime get any more special?

A pianist was playing as we sat in the courtyard which created a beautiful ambiance.

Afterwards we went for a walk by the river and identified our future house with it's own little moored up lugger.
