Lilian's Tree

Morning, I run this blog on my PC and am trying to workout how I can use the iPad, when I'm away to blog. As the email attached to this is a Microsoft account I am wondering if that is the problem. Any advice, suggestions or hint are welcome.

Well I have had a very interesting week, I went to Melbourne! It was Grandparents Day at my youngest  granddaughters school and I haven't been able to make it the last two years, I went. I was very adventurous, booking online, ordering the Skybus ticket and topping up myki. I just took carryon and it was wonderful. Grandparents Day was beautiful, with time in the classroom, being interviewed as to what school was like when I attended and then an assembly. As she is in the band, I got to watch her perform. The school also had an open night and I went to that as well. I also had some time with both girls, when their parents went out. The eldest and I had a wonderful talk about all different things. They are both very talented girls. I've been knitting beanies for my grandson and will give them to him, tomorrow. I get to babysit him!

I realised that it has been awhile since I blogged. I've been studying, knitting, reading, taking photos and being Grandma. These two books are really good reads. Nora always writes a great story. This one is about Faberge eggs and is really good. I don't want to give to much away but it starts with a girl seeing a murder, along the line of the movie "Rear Window" and then moves along from that. The Tea Chest is a good chick lit book. Strong female leads and a quirky story line.  Think about different teas and tea shops. This is for James and was fun to knit. I like the fact that it has a shoulder opening, making it that much easier to get on and off. I'm growing Basil and couldn't resist trying to capture a close up of the bees that were having fun in it. They ignored me and using my zoom I was able to get these shots. I love Autumn with it wonderful colours. This tree has given me so many different moods that I can't resist p
