Good Memories

I love this time of year, spring time rocks! there’s new life everywhere you look, we had a baby blackbird sitting on our bathroom window sill waiting for it’s parents the other day.

All we could see inside through the frosted glass was a brown ball of fluff I took a picture of it though without disturbing it from outside

Went to a pub for the first time in my adult life at 35 years of age, I’ve never been in one before.

We went to a family pub in Ingoldmells, there was some free entertainment for families on, so we thought we’d give it a go to see what it would be like (you can never complain at free entertainment )

I’ve been in a pub when I was a child a couple of times with my friends families, but only ever got as far as a family room or garden, this was my first experience inside a pub, I’ve never been in a night club.

My hubby brought me a Laptop to make it easier for me to blog

It’s the first time I’ve had a Laptop, I usually use an old computer my hubby donates to me when he upgrades to a more powerful computer every 10 years or so.

This is the first time I’ve had a brand new computer instead of an hand me down computer and it’s all mine I don’t have to share my computer time with my kids anymore

The laptop is a Toshiba not very powerful, but then I only need something basic for blogging and surfing the web. I play flash games occasionally busy mum and all, so I don’t have time to be playing state of the art computer games like guys can

I’ve dug all the weeds out of my little garden took me three days! and my back is killing me

I accidentally through weeds in my sons face! the weed got stuck on my garden gloves and instead of throwing them passed him they kinder when up in the air a bit and in the wrong direction and hit him square in the face

I laughed anyway!

While we where in the garden me and my son had a bubble gum fight to pass the time while weeding

It all started when I blow a bubble and made it bang and the pop echoed down the street which intrigued my son, I taught him how to pop a bubble gum bubble, then we had a contest on who could pop there bubble the loudest.

We went for our usual walk to Gibraltar Point Nature Reserve and saw too male Pheasants fighting at the side of the road managed to get a photo not a great one, but still enough to remember the day

I’m learning to drive and I’m driving on a quiet country road before venturing out onto the main roads to build up my confidence.

It’s my 4th driving lesson and as everyone knows there’s so much to remember when learning to drive that you forget the basics like braking.

I had a funny moment the other day, my hubby took me out quite late at night on the quiet country road and he taught me how to use the high beam to flash it on to take a quick look up a very dark lane.

I’m into photography, it’s one of my favorite hobbies.

I was out with my son when we spotted a male house sparrow beside us in a bush I couldn’t resist

I captured this great close up thanks to the birds natural curiosity interested in what I was doing it positioned it’s self so it could get a good look at me which means I got a good look at him

This is one of my best Photographs I’ve taken I have my own photo blog at www.fotoartglamour.com and this is one of the best bird images I’ve captured. On my photo blog you can get an enlarged image by clicking on the smaller image.

Had a great April Fools Day

The day started with me stuffing paper into the ends of my sons shoes and waiting to watching him try and put them on, but he put his shoes on when I wasn’t there

Our son burst into the room grinning like a cat with sparkling wide eyes of joy with a huge smile plastered across his face and exclaimed “Dad’s pranked me! Dad got me!”

I never get the credit for doing fun stuff and I missed out on shouting the infamous words April Fool

A baby dove was on my front garden today it was so cute and fluffy.

The baby doves mum/dad came and gave it a feed and it put a smile on my face and got me all excited for summer

The dove will grow up to be a Ring Collar Dove

Bless! I snapped this photo from my window

I got a lovely gift from nature this mothers day I opened up my curtains and saw that my purple crocuses had opened and the sun was shining off there leaves.

Made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside

I nipped outside in my PJ’s and took a picture.

My youngest son gave me a painted canvas for mothers day and my eldest came home from uni to see me, so a good quiet mothers day for me this year.
