The Last Of the Gerberas! (for now anyway!!)

This is the view from the end of our road it's a little hazy cos it was such a lovely sunny day here today, the weather has been really nice here the last couple of weeks so there has been frantic cutting of hay which makes the surrounding countryside look like a lovely big green and cream and brown patchwork quilt to me, The cuckoo is still here but not nearly as loud now so I would think he's due to go soon, I always hate when he goes and wonder will he come back next year!

the blue "hill" that you can see stretching out into the sea in the background is the cliffs of Moher

I know that the last two weddings I showed you had gerberas, and pink and so does this one!! However this is the last gerbera wedding for a while, I always think it's amazing, all of the last three brides had similar flowers and yet all of the weddings look SO different. I liked the prettiness of the one today, am whacked after it though, off to laze on the couch for the night now and catch up on some much needed R&R (in the form of crochet!)

A Few Mins Peace & Quiet!!

Sean has just gone for a nap, he was up so early this morning that he is totally wiped out! Aoife is tired and cranky also and has gone up to her room to lie down for a half an hour, so thankfully I have a small window of opportunity to show you some of the photos from today's wedding, hope you like them, just noticed, gerberas are really popular this year, one of the brides last week had them and also my bride next week has them, probably wont see them for another year after that!!!

Bad weather & Vegetables!

One of my greatest pleasures at the moment is the fabulous smell of these scented summer stock

My Crochet Stack for Aoifes Blanket continues to grow

As Do the Marigolds on my Doorstep!

I'm Loving this blue enamel bucket which looks so much nicer in real life!

Even though we have not planted anything yet one of the most important things for Aoife was to put in this scarecrow ( a Halloween one! that was in my store!) to scare away the birds!

Mmmmmmmmmm!

Cant help thinking this is just a slight bit too big! Oh well we can but try!

O.K - The weather forecast was good, After weeks of pestering my husband to sort out some kind of a vegetable patch he finally did it for me yesterday I couldint wait to get up this morning I had great plans of planting out my spudswhich are sprouting away nicely now but god it is so windy here you wouldint believe it, So eventually after planting two rows of potatoes we had to give up it was just too bad, hopefully tomorrow will be better! I am having trouble with the exposure on my camera which seems to be over exposing everything it is a fairly new camera so I guess I will just have to get out the instruction manual and see if I can fix it, so please bear with me till I sort it out!

Kilkee, County Clare

Isint this little house so beautiful? In such a lovely location while the weather is nice, but being realistic probably really awful to live in in the winter!

Was in Kilkee in County Clare, to meet another Bride about her Wedding Flowers and couldint resist taking some pictures of the beach while I was there, it is a beautiful Horse-Shoe shaped beach, I always love Kilkee it is such a beautiful little Irish Seaside town.

Busy Busy Busy!

Busy Busy busy, No time to waste Today! No Time for Crafting today either :(

Just as well that I love my Job!! Thankfully the weather here in County Clare, Cleared up to reveal a beautiful day. Best of Luck to Anne pictured above who married Donal in Quilty Church by the Sea a beautiful Venue. It really is a man's world, by the time I had finished the wedding flowers it was time to collect the kids from shcoll and child minders etc, back down to earth with a bump as usual! Must go and get the hungry crowd some dinner now, hope you like the wedding! I Love the colour of the bridesmaids dresses.
