Our Indian summer

With the turning back of the clocks this morning, we feel a bite in the breeze and add another blanket to our beds.  The seemingless endless summer we have enjoyed might just be over.  I wanted to share with you some snapshots of our long, lazy past few months, some of which was spent with family in Taranaki where we said farewell to one family member, celebrated the birthday of another and captured some moments in between.

Mount Taranaki/Fuji*:
* maybe.

Stony River walk:

A rare quiet moment:

And more frequent not-so quiet ones:





Wellington Botanical Gardens:


This cooler weather is making my yarn stash look quite appealing and I hear the crochet hook calling my name...

    1. Lol Sara, it's also easier on the wrist too, but I cannot deny this irresistable urge to crochet.
