About 6 weeks ago I made a film for Netmums talking about my family garden along with Penny from Alexander Residence and Jen from Love Chic Living. Oh I had the best time. i truly love my garden..it gives us so much joy. from the sweetpeas we sow and gather endlessly all summer to the muddy watering holes my son makes for his plastic animals. I love sitting out with a coffee quietly on my own, I love growing our herbs, huge pumpkins and bags of potatoes. I love setting up the paddling pool and my kids having fun with it on a sunny day. I love eating out there, reading out there and working out there.
My daughter and I craft form our garden regularly too. It really is such a very precious place. my husband loves his pond and sitting in the secret garden with beer. The squirrels and birds visit and neighbourhood cats pop along and laze around. i have even seen a fox stalk by.
Oh yes as a family I have to say we really do love our garden. games of football, picnics and BBQ’s, fires, chats, fireworks and water fights, Such a very important part of our family life. How blessed we are to have it.
I do hope you enjoy having a little look around.
My poor garden has been abandoned in recent months as I was overworked, then we’ve had a really dry spell so it’s looking very barren. I love your secret garden it’s very inspiring
Ha ha you and me have posted exactly the same post ha ha. Loved sneaking round your magical garden!
I want your secret garden, I love that you could just sit out there and listen to the birds without being disturbed.
I need all the help I can get when it comes to Gardens and gardening, so this was really useful! Thank you! 🙂
Lovely to see all your gardens. On my to do list is a video tour of our garden. Must get on and do it!
