Finally the girl has turned eighteen .such a big weekend we had. There was early present opening followed by rushing off to the movies . Adam and I rushed off to the engagement party of Simon,Suzies son. At the same time for early morning champagne breakfast.
As we had such an early start we thought we should do it properly and head to the market REALLY early.We got to the market at ten past six. We managed to do all the party food shop and be back home by eight thirty .With kisses and hugs in bed followed by presents.
We then went our separate ways and met back again at twelve thirty for the birthday pancakes with icecream and strawbs and candles.
We then lolled about with the viewing of a dancing dvd
that Amy gave Lena "Stepup 1....and 2".With some hilarious copying of the dance moves.
It was then time to get ready for the football event .which was Sue and Chris and Eri taking Lena to the football semi final to see Hawthorn play ....someone (I forget ). I made asparagus rolls and packed them off in the car with Lena driving on her "L's" still, in Amy's Car.....While Lena was away I made the poppyseed cheese cake for the birthday cake.and prepared food for the party on Sunday evening.And maybe caught some breath.
Now as I write their has been new updates. Lena HAS her licence and is ON THE ROAD HOORAY!!!!!
Helping me with some chores involving the car.As she heads off into the sunset I have to try really hard not to be too much of a worrier.But god help us from being like Doro!!!
Sorry no photos yet
sewing is just one of the things I do. Also have been known to work on catering jobs ,film catering included.The other hat I wear is a farm worker on an organic farm.Nothing like lots of blue sky and sunshine on the top of your head.Plus we need to add coffee making at "the Lane"

first day of spring
Here are our lovely chickees. They have grown heaps and are now in the cage outside. They love the grass and weeds .the best to eat is the oxalis.And any amount of cut bread slices.
The sun is out today and there is warmth in the air.
It is already September. Lots of things happen in September.
A big eighteenth birthday and also a driving test.
We have to plan a party and think about the big sisters birthday next as well.
My garden is growing and growing.
The peas I have trained up the trellis.
I think they are the pea straw flowering but it doesnt matter they are
the mostbeautiful colour.
Also the broad beans and their red flowers are doing really well
