Loving



Sleepy mornings in bed with a cup of tea and the papers, sun light through the window that tells me that it will be another hot, summers day.


Trees bursting with quinces. Soft, fuzzy fruit hiding amongst the lush, green leaves. Our old fruit trees are so special, giving us so much, planted by people we will never know, so long ago.


Netting the apples trees, imagining the many boxes of sweet little apples we will pick.


Watching our darling duck family scuttle around the garden, caring for each other, eating bugs, splashing
in the water & relaxing in the shade.


Love heart strawberries, home grown bursts of sweetness & joy growing randomly, little surprises waiting to be found.


Two little girls who play all day. Mermaid princesses swimming in the sea of their imaginations, summer girls, fun & fights & long afternoons in the pool.


Lake dreaming, cold, cold water and blue sky. A beach in Daylesford, wild ducks floating by on the shining ripples. 


Hearing from my beautiful family who are farther away from me than they've ever been, camping, adventuring, having fun in Robe. What are you loving this week? 
Have a happy weekend, see you soon xo

I am loving that we are home after an exhausting day at market in Melbourne and that the girls are bathed and in bed and we have a night of Weeds and knitting ahead of us. Yay! Gorgeous stuff you got going on Beck. Have you got a busy week planned? XX

Hey Bec, lovely post,everything looks 'just perfick' !!
Beautiful photos, lots of greenery about still.
What am I loving:-
Half price wool at Spotlight, wasn't intending to buy any, but it would've been naughty not to!!
Muffins with home grown raspberries and almonds.
Bunches of beautiful deep purple Buddleia and reading blogs whilst having a cuppa and listening to the storm in the distance.

Great post! I love the fruit trees, and I envy you being surrounded by them.

It's my dream to live someplace with lots of fruit trees!
