All over for another year!!

I hope everyone in blogland had a fantastic Christmas!! My very first time cooking Christmas lunch seemed to go well, with the help of mum and my sister, and also my neice, who was a great little helper! The kids were up a 6am ( I did tell them to be up at 6 so I could put the pork in the slow cooker!) They were really pleased with what Santa got them. Hubby got me a new camera which I have been playing with...just need to purchase a macro lens and I'll be all set! A wasp stopped by to have his picture taken
Agapantha...just love taking a picture of them!

Gum blossom...another favourite!


Yes, another bee...I will be known in blogland as the lady who takes pictures of bees all the time! Lol! One thing that I have discovered about bees, is that no two bees are the same...from their markings and their attitude!



Even Jess didn't mind having her picture taken. Jess will be 2 in April, and is such a gentle natured golden retreiver.
I have been working on a Anni Downs stitchery, and will hope to have it finished soon. I was having sewing withdrawals, with all the preparations leading up to Christmas, I didn't have time to sew...but now its time to relax a bit.
