Our weekend, as told by my camera roll…

22.04
since next week is my final week of work before that terrifying day named ‘essay submission day’, i wanted to use the weekend to recharge my batteries. so jason and i took things at the most mellow pace :) i didn’t venture farther afield than our nearest town, which for me is always the key feature of a relaxing couple of days. instead of going on exciting adventures, we did a little spring cleaning (ocado order- check! laundry- check! tidy up the garden-check!) i baked a few batches of cupcakes, and then we spent the rest of the time basking in the beautiful weather. 
a couple of days at straightening out the house was just what i needed to feel ready for the coming week. bring it on, monday! 

below: red velvet cupcakes, for saturday afternoon sugar rushes.

below: this man just loves the sunshine. his black fur soaks up the heat. 

below: which path to take? 

below: i like to see the buds unfurling on the trees. 


below: doesn’t it look as though teddy’s laughing at something hilarious jason’s just said in this picture? i love that little face!

below: he’s a water baby, this one.

below: my summertime pickle obsession is back with a vengeance this year, only this time around i’m going to try and not give myself tummy ache from eating too many in a row…

below: is there anything magic than hazy sunlight shining through trees?

below: we took bread up to the lake with us, and fed the ducks. teddy wasn’t sure which he’d rather chase after, the ducks or the bread!

how did you spend your weekend?

    What lovely pictures, your dog just looks so happy and cute all the time.
    Monday mornings are always made better by weekend round up blog posts, I’ve just blogged about a beach trip.
    Making me all excited for long sunny days and outdoor time to mark the end of essays.
