July Challenge, Numbers

 I do LOVE a photo challenge, and Eileen picked a goodie this time.

The subject was Numbers, with a twist. Each number had to come from a different source.

I had lots of fun with this one - beware, photo heavy.

Week 30, So many LOVELY things

 

LOVELY flowers in the yarden






I absolutely LOVE figs, this is the first from our tree since we moved here. It was delicious.


My LOVELY car, Natalya, has passed her MOT for another year. She's 11 years old now, and still a LOVELY car.

Lots of LOVELY bugs and pollenators in the Yarden.


It's the school holidays now, and I expect to have lots of LOVE, fun and laughter with some of my very favourite people. 


 


 

The Lionesses put on a wonderful show, and fully deserved their tournament win. I have just LOVED watching them play. 

 


 I hope these photos show how LOVELY my week was. Are you sharing the LOVE?

Week 29, I LOVE summer

 

I do LOVE summer, I LOVE being outside as often as possible, I LOVE the colours in my yarden, and I even LOVE the unpredictable weather, which has been a real mixed bag this week.

 GD5 LOVES her tractor, even though at 8 years old she really is too big for it now!

 

I have LOVED looking through old photos recently, here are a couple, first with my mum in about 1969, second with my gran in about 1957/8, I'm the one on the right in both pictures


 

I also LOVE doing jigsaw puzzles, although I don't do so many during the summer months, I usually try to buy them without sky, as I definitely don't wish to waste precious moments of my life doing difficult skies, so as far as I'm concerned, this one is finished.


 

I LOVE that I'm mentioned in an edition of a gardening magazine

 


And finally for this week, I LOVE hollyhocks.


How has your week been? Are you helping to shift the global culture to one of LOVE?
