Frog Update

Frogs aren't all I blog about - promise! But I couldn't resist snapping a few pictures yesterday and this morning. Especially when they sit so proudly at the edge of the pond, almost like they're waiting or us!

Yesterday when I got home from work I was stood in the garden and I noticed some of my flowers had bloomed, when I went for a closer look I could see something moving in amongst them - a baby frog! It's really good news as we were hoping we'd managed to provide them with a good home. Mr. E picked him up and returned him to the pond as we didn't want the dog to get hold of him.

 

 

You can just about make out the baby in the above picture, he's in the middle and the larger one is in the bottom left corner. The quality isn't great as I was trying not too get too close as they tend to swim off and also trying to avoid dropping my phone in the pond at the same time.

I did manage l snap some with my DSLR this morning but I'm yet to upload them to anything.

Hope everyone's enjoying the sunshine!

Home Alone

Day 4 of being abandoned by the Mr. for his boys snowboarding holiday. But don't feel sorry for me, when he returns I only have to wait a few weeks until we're off together to enjoy the snow! And if you're good at Maths you will of worked out that he gets two snow holidays and I just the one! Don't ask me how this has happened because I'm not even sure myself. Here's a picture he sent me, just to rub it in a bit more.

I can't say I've done an awful lot since he's been away. I've stayed at my parents a few nights, me and mum spent the day shopping on Saturday. It's the big countdown to one of my my best friends wedding (next Friday!!!) so i've bought my dress and shoes. She kindly asked me to make the favours for the guests - cake pops so I've been prepping for that. I'm so excited to do it I love baking for grateful eaters. I'll hopefully remember to take some pictures!

I'll finish with a picture of this chap, he's been missing Mr.E terribly, wandering around the house looking for him. Best friends reunited on Saturday!
