Easter escape!

The Easter school holidays are here - just in time too as my little fella was just dropping with exhaustion and ready for a break!  The weather is very autumnal with beautiful crisp, cool days and (thankfully!) lots of sunshine.  The garden has a new host of toadstools, which has delighted my young son (aged 7) who still believes that fairies and the like reside amongst them ;-)


For Easter weekend we nipped over the 'hill' (really a small mountain!) to visit some dear friends who live in the wine growing region known as the Wairarapa.  Its our bliss - one of those places that always puts a smile on our faces.

We had lots of time amongst the friendly, furry locals...

At the beach...


And enjoying every drop of the autumn sunshine, until it faded away at the end of each day...

Luckily the Easter Bunny managed to find us, much to the delight (and relief of my wee boy)...

I've been away from my computer for almost a week now and have really missed all the lovely blogs I follow, so I think tonight my treat will be a cup of tea and a relaxing read of all the gorgeous blogs I enjoy.  Have a great week peeps! xxx

    I'm glad you had a lovely break. The toadstool is amazing - Little Son is really interested in all manner of toadstools and fungi and has a book he carries around with him when we go out!

      Thanks hon - the poor kids really do get worn out by school dont they? I always love the school holidays and having my wee man home with me, though by the end of them I am the one needing a break, ha ha! I hope you all have a great time off together. :-)
