Grandma's Visit...

Russell's Mum getting her first ever Manicure...

Joshua loving the Massage Chair...

Russell brought his Mum home with him last Thursday to stay with us for the weekend... The boys always love having her here and are always wanting her attention to show her something or rather. :)

It has been a while since the last visit and the week before she came to visit us she had been in Hospital with fluid on the lungs. We were sure glad to see her and have her here for the four nights.

On the Friday I took Mum with me to Ladies Group which she enjoyed and then afterwards I took her to Tiffany's at Flavio Spa and Nails... Oh what a lovely time was had. We had Joshua with us as well as he had completed his entries at the Sports Carnival at Wheatvale State School. He had an early mark, they completed all the jumping and running by 1pm. :)

Joshua had a ball sitting in the massage chair this time, just like Timothy enjoyed it previously... I got my nails done. They needed refilling badly and ended up having the old ones taken off and a new set up on. :) Mum ended up having a manicure, something that she has never had done before. She loved it. She chose a really good colour as well. :)

We also took her to the Dairy we go to for milk which she appreciated as she used to milk 60 milkers twice daily about 45 years ago herself... Bit of a trip down memory lane. :)

But most importantly lots of family time was spent with her. She loved having the boys around her and having little nanna naps when she needed them. Oh it was soooo nice to have her here...

Come back soon, Grandma :)

Happy Birthday, even if you are not here...

The beautiful china setting...

The lovingly decorated table...

The yummy Black Forest Cake inside one of the pressies...

Today at Ladies Group we were all trying to surprise one of the Ladies with a surprise Birthday High Tea... Well wasn't it a surprise to us that she didn't come... She was on her way to the coast instead...

So we sang Happy Birthday, cut her cake for her and blew out the candles. We had a ball. Just wish that she had of been able to drop in on her way to the coast... It was all so lovely...

Cheers Damaris

Staring at the picture...


At the Warwick Women Warriors, the Ladies Group that I go to on a Friday, we are studying a painting at the moment...

No one knows who painted it and I think that is a shame in one way but good in another. You hang no expectations on it that way.

It is beautiful and I love to stare at it. To see what is behind the open door on the right... Who is on the balcony on the right... Who is with you in the boat as you go along the canal and viewing this setting... What is on both sides of that bridge in the distance...

Love the ripples in the canal in the forefront of the picture also... So peaceful. Can't wait to see it again today. :)

Cheers Damaris
