Things making me smile...

Now that the Royal Wedding fever and Bank Holidays are over, life seems to be settling down a bit. The children are back, nestled in pre-school, and our much needed routine is back on track. I've been able to knuckle down again without battling the workload whilst a child dangles off each leg, so life is pretty good! Things making me smile recently...

{The beautiful sound of the bells ringing at Westminster Abbey after the Royal Wedding. This picture was taken just outside the Abbey; I thought the row of flags looked stunning with Big Ben in the background.}

{Seeing the Royal Weddding 'balcony kiss' at Buckingham Palace and of course catching a glimpse of the Queen, albeit from a distance!}

{A blend of colourful tulips in St James's Park}.

{My serene looking Siamese cat (Merlyn) lazing around in a flower pot}

{Bare wooden 'abc' templates for painting so that they can be put on the children's bedroom walls.}
