Yellow

I always think it's interesting how some colours that may look dreadful on people (I'm talking about myself here), look beautiful in nature.  I look pretty ordinary in yellow, but when I saw these flowers by the side of the road the other day they caught my eye and I had a pull over and take some snaps.

10 on 10

I missed last month, so joining in again with Ten on Ten.
Today was busy, but OK.  Hubby was sick so I had to do a lot of things that are usually shared in order to get ready for the coming week.  My day looked a bit like this.

This is part of a sculpture that hangs on our bedroom wall and it's usually the first thing I see when I wake up.



Morning coffee - a must have



Band practice for church ... which sticks today ...?



Playing one of my favourites



 Daughter #1 doing some cooking ... love the apron!



Grocery shopping done and bags unpacked



The results of earlier cooking efforts



Quick run around the dog park



I am loving reading this series to my two older kids ... almost finished Book 4



At last, some time to myself

Scavenger Hunt

I have been wanting to join in with Ashley's Scavenger Hunt Sunday for a while now, and finally found some time to do it.  This week she has chosen 5 colours of the rainbow.

So here are my 5 photos for the week.

RED
My friend has a beautiful flowering gum tree out the front of her house, and it is in full bloom at the moment - I love summer.



ORANGE
Last year I went on a walk around the streets of Cabramatta in south-western Sydney.  There were so many things on display, but the amount of fresh produce was amazing.



YELLOW
I had to drive up to the Hunter Valley this week for work and took my camera 'just in case'.  These flowers on the side of the road caught my eye.



GREEN
I took this photo last year, mucking around with my camera under a tree in our front yard.




BLUE
We had a lovely beach holiday a few weeks ago. During one of our evening walks we spotted hundreds of blue bottles along the beach.  Luckily, no-one was stung.
