Gorgeous day to see our wonderful friends and dine outside. We don't see them often enough. Time always flies in their company and the kids are great together.

Spot Laura. This is not child neglect, just making sure that "strangers" don't frighten her too much. She is fine while in my or Mr H arms, and she even touches peoples faces, but hates being too close to anybody by herself. So low chair instead of high chair at the table worked better.

Having guests is such a great motivation. The garden looks so much better. Still some work to be done, it never ends, but much better.
