9 months and some very warm weather!

We had some gorgeous weather this week; it even got quite warm! Thursday it got to 28 degrees Celcius! Beautiful weather to be outside and potter around in the garden. I planted some strawberry plants, some parsley and romaine (cos) lettuce. The girls thought it was quite hot and so when it's hot, you have icy poles (popsicles). They enjoyed their little treat.

It was even the kind of weather you cook up some burgers and eat dinner outside. It was very pleasant; the grass was being cut and taken in, the sun slowly setting and the cows mooing in the distance. Doesn't that paint a nice picture?

It didn't last though! Today (Saturday) it rained. We had a plant sale with funds going towards the school on Friday and Saturday. Friday was beautiful weather and they sold quite a few a plants. Saturday was wet and dreary but they still did well. I was on the last shift of the day and we still sold quite a few plants. The left overs will go to the school garage sale we are having next week where typically they sell well.

This week was a bit of maintenance week. The little girls had their hair trimmed and then beautifully braided. Thanks Kristi! They got lots of comments that day! Shantel had her immunisation needles and was really brave. She loved her lollipop (sucker)! 

Volleyball season is almost over. Jaclyn has her playoffs and finals next week. This week's games were pretty intense. Her team won 2:1. Here's a few photos of her in action.

We have some budding hairdressers in our house too! Look at their colourful creations!

That's is it for this week. We thank our Creator for the wonderful weather we could experience this week and also for the rain. All in His time!

Thanks for popping past!
