Memorial Day holiday weekend has been and gone and we had a nice time. Did you? I hope so.
Today it is humid and steamy and the whole outside smells of Honeysuckle flowers, I just want to stand at my back door and breath in the warm scents as they drift on by.
I spent some time stamping out flowers with my fancy new cutty outy thing which makes lovely flower shapes. I ended up with a nice pile and I am very happy with my colour choice. In fact I would like my living room these colours.
These flowers are heading for my business cards which I need to fancy up for the upcoming Alt Summit in New York City.
I snapped some photos of these gorgeous thistles as we walked by the local Metro Link station. I took a load of photos but the wind foiled my plan and most ended up out of focus. Thankfully I got a few to play about with and here are a couple.



On Sunday we visited some friends who happen to have a lake at the end of their garden, so Bodhi and Max got to do a spot of fishing. They caught a string of weed between them, but a success was declared, and it was a lovely evening following a storm which only served to make the air even more humid!

Monday, we took a trip to Laumier Sculpture Park here in St Louis and had an artful walk through the park and woodlands. It was a warm sunny day which ended with a cooling thunderstorm which watered the garden for me!
It was nice to visit the park and see some sculptures I hadn’t seen in previous visits, this young lady in the tree was very well hidden.
What did you do this weekend, was it a holiday on Monday with you? Any crazy weather? I must admit, I do like the bonkers weather we get here, as long as it leaves the roof on the house….






Love the colour in those thistles!
And really like the little cut out flowers you made for your cards, looking forward to seeing those made up 🙂
Thanks Joy, I love the thistles, I might have to go back and get more photos! I am still putting the flowers onto the business cards, but there will be pictures.
