With the lovely warm weather we have been able to finish painting the play house, which is part of the BIG project. I cannot believe the transformation of the play house. It has really gone from plain, unloved and weathered to a modern much loved play house for the girls. The side bridge also has had a coat of paint
On the left you can see one side of the bridge is still to be painted and the right hand picture shows the finished bridge and play house. I will be painting the door but am still undecided on what colour to paint it. For now I like the unpainted look. I have used one 750 ml tin of Elephants breath, and half a 2.5l tin of Mouses back on both items. The paint is from Farrow and Ball, I love the range of colours but also how well the paint went on.
The next part of BIG is to repair the swing and slide set and paint this. The repairs are well under way and I hope to soon share with you an update.
The sunny weather has also seen plenty of walking in preparation for the Yorkshire 3 Peaks challenge, which is less than 2 weeks away. I am aiming to raise £250 for Alzheimer's Society, so far I am at £96. Every little counts and I would love your help, you can sponsor me here.
I have walked through fields with grass so tall that even BOB was hidden
I have suffered with hay fever and my allergy to grass, which resulted in a very itchy rash all over my legs.
The girls and I have loved our long walks together, enjoying cuddles
and exploring to see what creatures we can find
Running free and enjoying the views
Most of all these wonderful sunny days have been perfect for eating ice cream
and playing in the garden
Yes I really have enjoyed the past few days with my girls
This day I love BIG sunny days.
