It never stops to amaze me that no matter what is going on in your life, how ever sad or confused you might feel, if you take the time to open your eyes there is so much beauty all around us. Now I admit I am more optimistic than most, it has been commented on that I live in a bubble gum world, but you know there is so much sad and bad things going on in the world I don't consider this a negative remark. What can I say, its the British Summer time, yes the rain continues to fall and the days can be grey but when the sun comes out and you feel the warmth on your skin, how can you not look around and smile... especially with your children..
The writing is a little slow, to be fair it is pretty much none existent, I apologise, the children are with me and we are making the most of every moment. When we have a little spare change in our pockets we treat ourselves to afternoon tea with scones and cakes...
If we are a little short then its a little pic nic on the beach.
Whilst Mommy keeps up with her knitting...
The children wade off on sea adventures. (My sons leg is now healing well, I thank you for all your comments of support, fabulous scar though!!!)
We play on a beach that has a never ending supply of natural clay... Mmmm I am getting quite a few dried out little 'makes' around the house and my holiday cottage by the sea, which is of course my caravan ;)

Beauty all around...
I am home for a few days, longing to get back to the beach. Whilst home I am spending the evening in my sewing room, the vibe is starting to come back and whilst I know September brings many changes into my families life, I think the sewing groove will see me through, my head is so full of ideas and how can I not be inspired when I sit in my little room, surrounded by fabrics, rows of books filled with inspiration and my much loved sewing machine...
Happy days to you and yours...

Glad you are enjoying your summer despite the weather, at least it's been a bit dryer this week. And if it's too hot the wool makes your hands sticky when knitting!x
You are the best at finding good things to do with the children. I love the look of the clay!
Sounds like you are all enjoying your caravan time, just like us!
Lovely to 'see' you Suzie - so glad you are enjoying the summer with your boys. I am so enjoying it not being term time - such a luxury to not have to watch the clock!
Take care. x
Glad that groove is coming back. We are off on hols on sat, so have a good one until I see you again

Thanks for your comments on my blog :-) Sounds like you are having a lovely Summer. We have rain rain rain today and my little ones will be back to school next week so we are making the most of our time together - maybe cake making today!
Wasn't there a song about sunshine on a rainy day? Glad you're getting your beach time in there.
glad to hear your sons leg is on the mend and you are spending precious summer time at your favourite place. New header is just awesome -- don't you just want to peep inside though ?
I haven't popped over to your blog for ages. I hope you are continuing to enjoy the summer holidays together. Cream teas and picnics sound good to me. I hope the poorly leg has now healed. x
There is indeed, beauty everywhere and in everything! You just have to pause to look around...thanks for the reminder.
Stay Cozy, Carrie
Looks like such a wonderful time my friend.
