It has been a great day, with our Adelaide friends, Helen and Greg visiting us. it has been a happy, busy, bustling day and I had many smile moments. But now, as I finally flop onto the couch with my peppi tea and my knitting, I feel truly relaxed and am smiling :)

Monte and Georgie were in the garden, checking on things. Georgia was really excited, spotting new tomatoes, strawberries and zucchinis amongst the lush, fast growing crops.
