“If you were all alone in the universe with no one to talk to, no one with which to share the beauty of the stars, to laugh with, to touch, what would be your purpose in life? It is other life, it is love, which gives your life meaning. This is harmony. We must discover the joy of each other, the joy of challenge, the joy of growth.” — Mitsugi Saotome

sox on box and box needs fix

M5 knows now what happens when ya climb *on* the letterbox>>>>>
*splat*

the box falls off its perch...

necessitating a quick trip to the local hardware store for bits'n'bobs.. and he and Daddy performed a fix-it job late this arvo.



da boyz: on da tools


ahhhh, finished letterbox:
Hubby has a spot of relaxation in S9's groovy hammock:



It's been a great weekend's box-ticking all round: we've finally packed away all our camping stuff from last week (and the Christmas stuff) that was threatening to break our leg as we kept dodging h-u-g-e piles, the kids've seen a ton of mates, and Hubby has washed down the house too... *and* fixed my laundry wall tiles... *and* trimmed all those shady leaves off the grapevine so our gorgeous grapes will now taste of summer sunshine !!!!!

You have grapevines? Neat! I think my husband would like to grow grapes sometime, along with making homemade wine. He grew up making wine with his grandfather. There are actually several nice vineyards in Ohio.

That's great that M5 helped his daddy with the new mailbox. My seven-year-old learned about spackling walls when she got hold of a letter opener. No more to say about that!

What a cute mailbox!

The grapes sound delightful. I enjoy being sly with my camer too, but I have not had many blog-worthy photos resulting. I have lots of blurry images :-)

I am quite jealous of your summer right now :). It is hard to grasp Christmas in the summertime for me, but if that is what you are used to then it mustn't be that different. Looks very relaxin' does your Hubby.
