♥Beautiful Memories This Month♥

Snuggling up in~front of our fireplace with a hot cup of cocoa, my family gathered around me, and all of us chatting and laughing together~

Baking with my little sister Sofia~

My little brother coming to climb in with me one night, when the wind was howling and scaring him...I tucked him into my bed and he snuggled up tight next to me, slipping his arm over my back. It was so special to know that he felt safe with me...that everything would be okay, now that his big sister was with him...so precious!

Laughing with my two older sisters as we clean up the kitchen at night~

Coming home after a twelve day holiday, house sitting for friends in Sedgefield...we thoroughly enjoyed our time there, but, 'East West, Home is Best!'


♥In The Garden This Month♥

I planted a bed with onions about month ago, and to my delight they came up, and are now quite big!

It is such a wonderful feeling, to go outside each morning and find that, overnight, they have grown just the teeniest bit bigger!


♥Around The House This Month♥

In our ever busy household, each day is filled to the brim with surprises, joy, laughter and love!

Our guinea pig, Oreo just gave birth to 4 little guinea pig babies, they are SO cute, and caused much excitement in our family!

It is my sister Beth's 17th birthday on the 22 nd...

My sister Nancy has been sewing up a storm...{she made the adorable little jumpsuit that Sofia is wearing!}


♥Projects This Month♥

I am still working on my apron...!


♥Reading This Month♥

Whilst browsing in a pile of second~hand books for sale at a library one day, I found an omnibus of the "What Katy Did' books...I was and am delighted and have been reading them furiously!

♥Thankful For This Month♥

Walks in and through the apple orchards...there are still a couple apples on the trees, and every now and then we find a nice one, pick it and bite into the fresh, cold, juicy flesh...aaah, delicious!

A warm fire at night!


♥In The Kitchen This Month♥

We have been enjoying baking and eating Apple Cake...it is a delicious, healthier recipe that tastes AMAZING! And it is a good way to use up all of your old and not so fresh apples! 

Will be sharing the recipe soon!


♥Something That Made Me Laugh This Month♥

My sister's cartoon drawing of me inspecting my onion bed...

 

♥Something New In My Bedroom This Month♥

Whilst we were on holiday, I came across an adorable little chair at a second~hand store...as I was needing a chair desperately, I bought it and it brings me much joy!


♥Hoping For This Month♥

Warmer weather?! It has been SO cold here in Misgund recently...almost every morning we wake up and find a thin, silvery layer of frost covering everything! It is beautiful, but FREEZING! Our pipes keep freezing...!

How has your month been so far?
