Baby you're a firework!

Ok, it's been a few good weeks since Guy Fawkes day or Bonfire night, but better late than never! Not wanting to pay to get into Battersea Park, saw me and a friend stand opposite the park on the embankment to take some photos.  Armed with several layers of clothes and a good dose of excitement we were ready.  Here are the results...

Mom, confidant, friend

I love my mom! She is one of a kind.  A lady with heart, a lady with more guts, strength and depth than a lot of people I know.  She is a huge source of strength for us as a family.  She is the laughter on our lips and a prayer warrior kings would be jealous for.  She carries our hearts in a way that has taught me what real love is.  She always puts our needs first and she is beautiful inside and out.  I love her more than words could ever say.

Wisley Gardens

"Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower." ~ Albert Camus 
 
Last weekend me and a few friends went to Wisley Gardens in Surrey to go look at the autumn colours and to visit a food  market that was there for the day.  It was well worth it!  Wisley is the second most visited paid entry garden in the United Kingdom after the Kew Gardens, with almost 1 million in 2010.  I will let the photos do the talking...

































 

Yarnbombing

When a friend says they want to do something less "everyday", I'm normally in.

When Natasja asked me to tag along for her yarnbomb, she didn't have to ask me twice.  Since then, she has had a big response on her blog (http://crochetime.wordpress.com/) and she has already done another bomb in Thames Ditton.  More to follow soon, but in the meantime, her are some pics i took of da bomb... ;-)








Afterwards, with an overflow of adrenaline rushing, we went for a little walk around Thames Ditton, and I have to admit, it is a stunning little place! Here are a few things that caught my eye.
