Well hello!

I hope you had a smashing weekend. 

We did. First overnight stay away with new baby: at Mum and Dad's so not really pushing the boat out I s'pose. Totally, totally lovely.  

What's not to adore about the farm?

:: Mum and Dad's tradition of putting out your particular family flag when you come? This is ours. My sisters and brother have theirs too. Christmas time was flag central. I love our flag.

:: The chance to hug trees that I've hugged since I was knee-high?

:: Hanging out in beloved violet patches that have been growing on the front driveway for about 150 years?

:: Enjoying those two smallies of mine as they play, utterly fascinated, with Mum's music box collection?

:: Enjoying the garden?

:: Playing hide and seek with Gran?

:: And if all that wasn't enough to love, Dad grows coffee. Great coffee. Hand harvested, processed and roasted on the farm. And now has an awesome new espresso machine. 

We could move in, surely? Reckon they'd notice?
