food coloured flowers

A fun experiment to do with the littlies. Get the lovely white flowers and pop them in water with some food colouring in it. (Try different colours) and then over a few days watch how the colour appears in the petals of the flowers. Very pretty!


Missed August

Okay, so i managed to completely miss any August posts. And even now don't really have any plans of what to say.
Kids are great. We're ticking along and that's life!

Daryl has been working hard on the back yard, retaining and building us up a vegie garden. Can't wait to get some vegies in and growing in a couple of weeks time. YUM! He's also built the kids a huge fort which now dominates the back yard. Still have a few finishing touches, but the kids are loving playing in it already. He's been having such fun doing all the DIY stuff too. Getting up at the crack of dawn (seriously 6.50am on a Sunday. Banging and bashing with no regards for the neighbours Sunday sleep in!!LOL!) He's been getting terribly frustrated with the wet weather interrupting his fun too.
