Day 284: Family Time

Time spent with family is worth every second…

After a day spent cleaning the house, tidying and wandering around town, it was lovely to head ‘home’ to the parents and spend the afternoon chilling. We had a small family gathering early this evening with a huge roast chicken dinner (and cheesecake courtesy of us – homemade and everything!) Everything was Autumnal and beautiful. We also invested in a Chiminea for the colder evenings of which there are many – so hopefully some cosy photos of that to follow over the next few days.

Today we mostly spent money. On very useful things though like scarecrows (more photos of that another day!) We had our patio done courtesy of the -delightful- builders of our house.

It looks amazing I have to say, and really extends the house into the garden. So we needed chairs to go with a table we were kindly donated – and some solar lighting for the back garden since the one that came with the house still doesn’t work (delightful builders, I did say didn’t I!)

This evening will be spent sampling some cider that we ventured to Tesco’s for as a little treat because we didn’t have enough already today! Also here are some sunset photos just to mix it up a little bit – the sunset is getting earlier and earlier, looks like we’ll be enjoying the last of the patio in the next few weeks!
