This weekend was grand. The welcoming we got when entering the garden was just ... wauw...
The pictures speak for themselves really, all sorts of flowers planted with love by skilled hands (thank you Michou!)
The fruit trees are all in blossom. The "Reine Claude" plum tree gets the prize for most beautiful, but the flowers on the peach trees were breathtaking as well.
And Madame Paris told us that we have an abricot tree in our fruit garden. She was cheerful as always, I traded her a jar of homemade rhubarb jam for 12 fresh eggs. She chatted away about the upcoming Brocantes, I can't wait to go treasure hunting again...
Furthermore we celebrated Lili's 7th birthday, had a barbecue in the garden with the kids and Glenis.
On the downside Louis was in bed all weekend with a bad flu... high fever and everything that goes with it, poor baby. He's better now, but not 100 procent.
I cleaned the house nicely because next weekend we (Glenis actually) have foreign guests staying, I hope they'll enjoy the house as much as we do.
