I hope you have had a lovely week too......................enjoy the one to come!
Was the photo taken as part of your learning about castles perhaps? I love pictures seen through these old stone openings. Glad you have had a good week and hope that the happiness outweighed the sadness - sadness I share with you as I am sure do most people.
ReplyDeleteYes, the photo was taken at a castle this week :). I will be sharing about our learning about castles later this week ;)
DeleteLearning about the body, and digestion in particular, can be very enlightning! I've been delving into those topics for a while now - learning about the effect of particular foods on the body - and my knowledge has definitely improved my health and well-being. xxx
ReplyDeleteWe have had lots of meals with garden veggies too. I love this time of year. What a great photo! I can't wait to see the shawl and all your other creations.
ReplyDeletelove the perspective of the photo! The sadness in the world gets to me to, and I wonder why.
ReplyDeleteA good and full week I think. How I wish I had a tidy house too! I hope this is a good week too. CJ xx
ReplyDeleteSounds like a full and interesting week. I love the photo
ReplyDeleteSeptember is coming so quickly! I've found myself thinking about Autumn lately too but it's my favourite time of year so I always look forward to it (oddly enough). Hope you have fun at your music festival.
ReplyDeleteOh, I can't wait to hear more about the castles!
