thank you once again lovely Ada for the blog award....
so here are....
7 things about teawagontales... I have done things I'm hoping to do this summer...
 |
| 1 |
read some books.. ( kids books are my favourites )
 |
| 2 |
get back to basics...( I love computer graphics but I treated myself to some pastels and am having a go at drawing again )
 |
| 3 |
catch a train...( hopefully in a cute station like this one )
 |
| 4 |
listen to some tunes....( not i-tunes... lovely old vinyls on our record player, I can't wait to dig out some old favourites )
 |
| 5 |
crochet....( never has a school holiday gone by that I haven't picked up the hook and some yarn and got to work on yet another blanket )
 |
| 6 |
picnics :) ....( weather dependant of course although I am partial to wet, thundery picnics too and with our little dog Arnie in tow they are always 'interesting' )
 |
| 7 |
paint... ( even though my plan was to paint the house from top to bottom...this option seems a bit more realistic.. )
 |
| 8..I know I can't count :) |
making... ( just for the sake of it...patchy things,toys,garlands,cushions,paper mache..anything we fancy ..yay!the best sort of making )
so maybe after the summer I will re look at this post to see if we did any of the above :)
I hope so x
here are some links to some lovely blogs I have recently discovered...
