Oh dear, I had a little girl on Monday at the toddler group, who really, really did not want to smile – at all!! I even pointed the camera vaugely in her direction she was scowling and turning away!?? Luckily I’d brought a few toys with me and she instantly fell in love with my teddy!! Problem solved!! So now not only is she smiling but its my favourite shot of the morning!!!

Yay I just Love Autumn, the leaves changing colour, nights drawing in and best of all chestnuts……………… Sunday morning was a lovely clear sky so we dressed up warm and went of to see if I could remember where the sweet chestnut trees were in Stratton! A bit of hunting but we found 5 great trees , someone had got there before us but it seems they hadnt mde the walk to the last tree, which was absolutely carpeted underneath with gorgeous, shiny nuts!! Wow the kids had so much fun and just loved running about with their new walking sticks – thanks Alex!!

today is the last day of the summer holidays….phew we’ve had a good break, done loads of stuff and the kids are well and truly shattered! i really wish it was longer and we’ve done more but i’ll welcome the time i’ll have to myself now to devote to the business and general photography. I don’t know how some people fit it all in, i think they must be superwomen!!
its cameron’s first day at nusery tomorow, he’ll be all kitted out with his school uniform and book bag so i’ll have to set the alarm early and take loads of photos!
