Still finishing my car and swapping car seats to go back in.
Yes, I think cleaning the car will be on the agenda for my kids tomorrow as well! Looks like you had a lovely Sunday.

It was a nice way to end or is it start the week ?
I had a lovely slow cookin' Sunday..much like yours! Have a great week.

thanks Carol , it was nice to unplug and enjoy the boys.
Looks like you and your family had a great day Trish! We had a lovely Sunday too...playing on the big slide at the Home Show, followed by an afternoon of baking scones and watching movies together. The weather was a bit too miserable here for us to go to the park...hopefully next weekend.

OHHH now I'm thinking scones for next Sunday , mmm. The slide sounds fun Lisa.
Cleaning out the car usually costs me money. The kids don't think it's as fun as they get older ;) Sounds like a fun Sunday, Trish. Nothing better than home made popcorn and a movie!

Yes, cleaning the car does after the single digit years :) , I'd forgotten.
Popcorn was a big hit but not for my hips.
We spent Sunday morning planting trees with my two oldest boy's Scout group. I was dreading it to be honest because they had predicted rain but it was gorgeous weather. I ended up stripping down to my t-shirt and jeans in my tree-planting frenzy! We were in this beautiful meadow near a creek bank, the sun was shining, the grass was green, my kids were running around outdoors (which always makes me smile) and afterwards we had a sausage sizzle. It was a great day all round. I hope some of the trees survive so in 10 years they can say 'I planted those trees!'

Sounds like you had fun Eloise. I can't wait to get involved with scouts again with my boys, my eldest was a joey, cub and then a scout for 7-8yrs - then he backed out. They have such great fun scouting.
What a lovely Sunday. Great photos! :)
Looks like a great day! We went to a local park that had a giant inflatable slide up for the day and then went for a walk around the lake. It was lovely! I definitely need to get my kids to clean out the car :-)
Car wshing was always fun!
Haha, do they want to do my car too?!
That first photo is fabulous !
I showed dandelions to the twinlets for the first time yesterday.
They loved it ! Thanks for sharing :)
