apple day

We had such a great day on Saturday. Apple day was on at Kehelland horticultural center. There were local traders, farm animals, traction engines to ride on, face painting (by an unbelievable artist, see here), camp fires, mazes, traditional crafts, oh yeah... and apples... loads of the things.

Roghan loved this carousel so much, the smile says it all really.

Over 100 different locally grown varieties of apples were displayed and sold. Including the teeny tiny crab apples below.

These gorgeous gentle giants William and Samson were kind enough to give us a ride.

Happy days...

breakfast time!

I think we need to enforce some kind of rule about the hamster joining us for breakfast!

wooly updates

Despite the seeming lack of activity going on there has been lots happening. Sonny, our pup, has grown into a great big 12 month old and has taken up some racing (just for fun) in his spare time, Roghan is approaching 2 and has discovered that his new favourite word is 'nope', faith is pursuing her interests in dance and drama more than ever, and me... I've been knitting! ...lots.

Actually lots more than this but when I come to download the pictures I find they are not there, it must be that pesky photo piskie that pinches all the photos I'm sure I took. It seems to be very active around these parts. Maybe I dream about taking photos? Strange thought. I will be joining in with a yarn along on Wednesday so will hopefully manage to get some more knitting updates by then.
