Christmas!

We spent Christmas with daughter and her family in Port Alfred, Eastern Cape. Its a lovely coastal town ! They have now relocated there and spent a few days making blinds for the house. And of course had lots of fun with Matthew. His life is changing so much now! Even Zequenya the dog is still adjusting from being a anti poach dog to a ordinary suburban dog! She is so amused when walking on her leash and seeing all the dogs in the neighborhood, just wants to play but those dogs are not as friendly as she is. She was the only dog at Ubizane. They are in a green belt and still have monkeys around.  Even the cats are aware that their lives have changed forever.
At the mouth of the Kowie River

The cats are very amused seeing all the movement in the street.

Getting Zequenya the anti poach working dog to just relax and
take a walk with her leash on.

Matthew decorating the Christmas Tree

The men cutting the hedge, and you can see how nice the area is.
They have lots of monkeys in the surrounding trees.

I received an old broken wheel burrow or two from a builder friend
and we have some lovely pink flowers now.

Busy Busy and a few finishes

Two round pillows embroidered and some roses in organza and lots of beads and
also some of my own crocheted lace.

A nappy changer bag for my daughter.
this is the inside with pockets for all
the nappies and stuff

when closed also an outside bag added for her stuff when shopping.
I added zips to the sides so she will be able to put a bottle in there
too. I chose this colour so that she will be able to use it anywhere
even on the car bonnet when necessary! hehehe

Thaankful!

Found a very nice fish añd chips shop nearby us.  Its my Birthday month and I started a new small cross stitch patte...
