garden weekend

I wrote this post the other night, and then went away to find pictures to put in it, and the post disappeared.

Sob. The moral of the story is save your draft before you mess with other programs. Wonder if that’s a useful lesson for anyone else.

Anyway, it was a lovely weekend. We spent it in the garden. We even put up last year’s woebegone gazebo and sat under it a bit. I sat under it, but with my back to the sun casting shade on the baby and managed to singe my back slightly. Just enough to make me serious about the sun again, without worrying too much about the pain. Coo, second lesson of the post!

Can I remember anything else? The baby ate banana in the garden, and desperately tried to pull up grass. The other children were reluctant to come outside – think they’ve forgotten what the big yellow thing is tbh.

And now for the pictures.
