With these lovely summer days upon us, we've been spending our afternoons doing this...
Darcy is such a water baby, she runs straight to any water - it can be a nice clean river or a mud filled puddle...and then she lies down in it!
Lyall and I headed out to Scrappin Patch as I had a couple of things to pick up and then we found the Deep South ice cream factory shop. Lyall loves ice cream like nothing else! We used to frequent the Movenpick factory shop in Auckland, so to find another factory shop down here is great. Yes, I know we can get ice cream at the supermarket, but those two litre containers are just too small - we go through three of them a fortnight. If it were me alone, then I'd go through one a year lol. I really have to be in the mood for an ice cream and that's not often.
We also headed off to the local movie theatre last night. It's huge. It seats sixty four...lol. We watched 'When a City Falls' - gosh that brings back some memories and not a dry eye with the sixteen of us watching it.
These two have had a wee visit this weekend as their Mum and Dad (along with two of the three rotties) headed off to Dunedin to see Mr Elton John.
And yes, because they're kids, they pinched all the strawberries from our garden lol.
Scrapbox have a three week Christmas challenge on at the moment. Last week we had to make two tags. One a traditional tag shape/size. The other had to be a tag using a shape of some kind - eg wreath, tag, tree etc. These were my two tags.
It's hard to see, but all those 'white' flowers actually have a light spray of gold on them. Rather pretty in real life.
And here is the latest picture of Donna's house:
Hope you've all had a great week - here's wishing you another great one next week.

Gorgeous tags Trace, congrats on the points for them. Donna's house is progressing well. I have heard wonderful things about that ice cream. Glad you found a factory so close.....
I'm enjoying seeing the progress of the house. And the flower wreath/tag looks rather stunning ... even before you told me about the gold spray. :)
Ohhh Donna's Place is looking like a real house now.. Deep South Ice cream might have to try that when we are down in Jan, Blakie would like that. Love your wreath too it's awesome..
The house is looking great!!
The ice cream factory sounds fab. That's a LOT of ice cream your man eats in a fortnight!! But we all have our vices, don't we? ;-)
Great photos of Darcy in the water. Buddy is not interested in swimming at all!!
House is coming along nicely! Love your tags!
