Friday night at our place looks a lot like this. It smells of the open fire and of freshly mown grass. Friday night sounds like farmer Bren chopping away at a piece of Blackwood, like Indi practising the guitar, like the kookaburras laughing at us from high up in the tree-tops and like the girls giggling at me rushing around taking photos before we lose the light. Friday night at ours tastes like spelt spaghetti with freshly made pesto and it feels a bit chilly since the sun has disappeared. Friday night tonight is a bit of a relief, a bit of an exhale, the second last late night before school really starts.
Friday night here is lovely, I hope yours is too.

I really want to come over and do a cook off outdoors with your family! This is just so beautiful Kate.
ReplyDeleteOurs was filled with the visits of lots of little girls. There are fewer sounds sweeter then those of happy six year old girls just hanging out with no one telling them what to do.
ReplyDeleteWhat great pics. Sounds like fun. Right now I'm not sure where the grass is. Covered under about 30" of snow.
ReplyDeleteWe went back to school this week so Friday is very welcome..... xxx
ReplyDeleteWhat a magical evening! Your space is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYour Friday night looks lovely - very relaxing and chilled out. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeletePerfect! Happy weekend Kate and family. xxoo
ReplyDeleteSo lovely Kate. The smell of new mown grass is one of my favourites. What beautiful memories you are creating amongst your wide open space...you will look back in years to come and sigh wondering when did these girlies so grow up. Where did all this time go. Treasure it.

beautiful
ReplyDeletethis is what memories are made of.
My year 'really' started today too. A return to the Girl Guide uniform. No kids around our house anymore, but I am still guided - literally - by school terms. Can't complain though. What's to complain about being outside and meeting up with amazing women, all volunteers, to plan our adventures for the coming year?
ReplyDeleteFriday night there does look lovely x
ReplyDeleteIt sounds very wonderful Kate. Perfect weather for an open fire too and cosying up with a bit of knitting. Ooh nearly forgot (was I supposed to contact Georgie for the pattern I won on your blog). I wasnt too sure. I hope your girls enjoy their back to school on Monday. Isabelle is a bit nervous since she will be going to a new school for Year 8.
ReplyDeleteSquee! That is the life I'd love. But sadly no children, no farm and no chance. So thank you for sharing your life xx
