the sun is finally shining

After a long period of rain in delightful little England

the sun has finally decided to show its sunny head.

We had some family members visiting today

that we haven't seen in a long, long time.

So it was lovely to be able to sit out in the garden

and have a chat and a catch up.

When the sun shines it makes all the colours

in the garden pop so much more.

I love the vibrant colours of summer that appear

after the pale pastels of the spring.

With the family over it was another chance

to celebrate my Mother's new engagement to her partner Nigel.

So out came the Champagne and the flutes

and a toast to the happy couple!

And with the sun and the colourful colours

I was able to wear my brand new maxi dress

that is covered in colourful flowers,

so I fit straight in with the garden!

Plus I got to pair it with Nigel's cowboy hat,

I think I looked the business!
