the words to that song have been flitting about my head for most of the day…

this morning two of my colleagues met here and we headed downtown to attend the Women Build Habitat for Humanity Garden Party Fashion Show at the Delta… another colleague was the chair of the event… it was lovely… we had all stressed about what to wear so as not to embarrass our colleague, one another, or ourselves… of course there was every kind of outfit, from jeans to quite fancy dresses… lots of lovely prizes and a great fashion show…

The Garden Party…

once home I got to lay down for about 15 minutes before my family arrived for Sunday dinner… we spent a lovely few hours in the garden, raking, tidying, trimming, washing and getting the big pond running…

then we ordered pizza because we had all worked very hard, and sat out in the garden to eat it…  I was soooo happy because it really needed the tidy up and it will be lovely to sit and relax out there while contemplating what flowers will be planted this year…

the boys were at the creek and saw lots of frogs and went back with nets and pail to catch some, but were only able to bring home frog eggs, which went right into the pond…

moving frog eggs to the pond…

although, my daughter pointed out that I couldn’t really plant anything until I return home from the cruise… maybe I will give them a list and have them do some of that work while I am gone, hmmmmmm….
