Its turned very wet again...no joy there!!.
Sweet pea's Sports Day has been cancelled until further notice due to the water logged playing fields.
Wellies, woolly hats and toasty socks have got us through the quite miserable school runs this week.
Sweet pea always finds a huge puddle to jump in!- Kids love puddles and you just cant stop them!.
Home comforts have got me through too especially hot soup with chicken and noodles-very warming...
Can get you down a bit all this rain...
At least the week end was rather lovely and quite sunny!...
~ Updated ~ I was stepping out for the afternoon school run and Mr Posty gave me a wonderful parcel...
It was from the lovely Carly from 'Crafted by Carly' blog ❤
How lucky I was to Win her Giveaway!!!!!- Thank you sooo much for the delightful, cheery bright giftys!.
I won a beautiful yellow stripe purse, yellow stripe make up bag , sweet brooch and 'The wonderful weekend book'...Such lovely gifts. I feel very luck indeedy. Carly is very creative, do check out her wonderful blog.
Thank you soooo much Carly x ... I will treasure my gifts ❤
On another note. I've noticed a lot of bloggers/friends using Instagram - I really like this idea of just quick pics of daily life...but do you need a special mobile App?...couldn't quite understand how it all worked, seemed rather confusing!?- maybe its just me as I'm not great with techno!. And as i've only just got into Pinterest you can see I'm a slow learner!...Any-way below are some quick snaps of daily life in polaroid form. 'Kazstagram' hehe...
Devon is very much benefiting from all the rain...its even more lush than i've ever seen it...
Don't get too wet,

Hiya - such gorgeous homely pictures.
ReplyDeleteWe've had one sports day cancelled and one that made it 'just' by the skin of its teeth.
Yes, you do need a phone app for Instagram.

Wonderful cosy photos Kazzy!

Hi Kazzy, I have just been reading the same book as you, lovely book. Rain here too, non stop. Thank goodness for wellies.
ReplyDeleteNever judge a book by its cover ... I'm afraid I always do, and yours looks good! Lovely pictures, the cosy tea light one in particular, reminds me of cosy winter nights in ... bit like the ones we're experiencing at the moment! Have a lovely week, Claire xx
ReplyDeleteHi Kazzy. I spoke to my parents in Devon this morning and it was so dull they had their lights on! They're fed up with the rain too as they like to be out and about. I hope this summer isn't a total wash out especially with the kids breaking up from school in less than 3 weeks time! I haven't been out of the house for the past week recovering from my op but did manage to potter about in the garden for a bit this afternoon. Not too much rain in London today and getting quite humid again. Lovely photos. Think I might make a soup tonight.
ReplyDeleteInstagram is an iPhone app. I just downloaded it because our daughter sent me an Instagram the other day and I didn't really get what it is. Another cool thing in tech land is Polyvore. I just joined and I'm going to mess around with it today.
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm so sorry about all that rain. It's hard to imagine my UK friends sloshing about, trying to keep warm, when we are so desperately trying to keep cool!
I'll follow you on Pinterest. It's super fun!
Thanks ladies, I dont have an iphone? so does that mean its only for iphone users>>? kazzy ;0)x
ReplyDeleteI love that book so much! Such a rubbish day but your photos brought a little bit of cheer! x
ReplyDeleteWhen you find out will you let us all know how because I'm very curious about instagram also.....stay warm and dry....
ReplyDeleteRain, Rain and more Rain here as well. I could sure go for a bowl of that soup right about now and a good book to read sounds perfect.
ReplyDeleteHere is hoping the summer weather is just around the corner..
I was able to get Instagram on my phone..Mine is an htc not an iphone..so if you have another type of mobile, it may be available on yours. I am very new to it all though, still haven't got around to following or anything on it (just using it for it's effect at the moment).

Will Summer ever arrive?Yes Devon is certainly looking lush at the mo,but I tried to go for a walk earlier and got drenched within the first five minutes so came home for a cuppa and a biccy-not good for my Weightwatchers he he..
ReplyDeleteWarm Wishes,
Callie x
With you on the rain, I think I may be rust colured if it continues for much longer... But its an excuse for those gorgeous tea lights, so every cloud has a silver lining!

Oh Kazzy, it would be great to see you on Instagram - it's such fun - I'm afraid it has contributed to me neglecting my little blog though. Yes, you need to have a mobile phone that can download apps. The actual Instagram app is free.
ReplyDeleteIsn't this rain foul? My daughter's sports day went ahead yesterday but it was damp and chilly. I came home with hair twice the size!
Love your sunny giveaway win.

Apparently the 3rd week of july sees the weather improving....yeh, we believe you!
ReplyDeleteThat parcel of brightness would certainly cheer up any day, how lovely!
ReplyDeleteI am addicted to instagram, i'm on it all the time! Yes you do need an iPhone but I think they have started releasing it on other phone types now! x
hello Kazzy,
ReplyDeleteGreat cosy pics...those lovely homely lights are so inviting. Lucky Lucky you winning Carly's giveaway prizes ....we're reciprocal followers and I am always impressed at the combination of fabric and colours she uses for her makes. IMO she has an eye for style.
Hope the sun shines for you soon
Amanda :-)
Aaaaah! Thank you for blogging about my little giveaway prizes. :-)
ReplyDeleteGlad they added a bit of colour to a dull day.
Sending sunny thoughts.....

Kazzy,
ReplyDeleteI'm no good with technology really, any photos I take with my phone only go on my twitter account, I really am not technologically advanced. The weather is very depressing, I'm raining again here very depressing for this time of year... Where is the sun??? Love your new items, the weekend book is lovely to pick up anytime and ready, you'll love it!
All things nice...
Lucky girl, what a lovely sunny prize, we did have a glimmer of sun today but its raining again now! I think I have worn my wellies with everything in my wardrobe now!, I love your photos, especially the glowing candles
ReplyDeleteThea x
I just said to my daughter the other night that I needed an iphone because of instagram. I do love my uncomplicated phone with buttons to press, but it doesn't have apps!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat wins and I do love the blue flowery material, and the blue polka dots reminds me of a very fav teacher in small school.

Hi Kazzy! Such beautiful photos, and so sorry for the grey and rain. Wishing some sunshine, and blue sky your way!! Lovely gift your received! Such a bright and cheery bag! xo Heather
ReplyDeleteAhhhh a lovely post! What gorgeous treats you won! Yes you do need an app for Instagram, either on iPhone or Android I think. I'm liking Kaztagrams!!! Lol :)
ReplyDeleteJo x

Hi Kazzy, your photos are lovely. I especially like your header photo, very clever! Hope the sun has found its way to you now. Heather
ReplyDeleteLovely gifts you received, i am pleased you mentioned that about kids jumping in puddles, my daughter yesterday was having great fun in her wellies jumping in the puddles, but i could not help but notice a couple of people looking as if it was naughty, silly really, she can jump in as many puddles as she likes!!

Hi! Yes, Instagram is an app! I find it very frustrating as I have such a poor internet signal here Down the Lane I can't upload my pictures, grrrrr! However I love looking at everyone elses! The web version is webstagram - have a looksee. You can download Instagram free for i-phone or on android if you have a different brand, but you do need a SMART phone -x-
ReplyDeleteI adored the Guernsey literary and potato peel pie society...might have to read it again! Have a great weekend,
Sarah -x-
Congratulations on your gorgeous giveaway win! I'm glad you're enjoying that book, I loved it too. Your photos are beautiful, however you take them, Kazzy!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a wonderful weekend....hope the rain goes away!
