Just looked out my lounge window and was delighted with my Pierre de Ronsard Rose. There was no blossom out when I left.

I love it Denise.  There was so much colour down in Hobart so to come home to that beautiful show of roses would have been wonderful.

Your roses are stunning Denise.So lovely to see them as it's all brown and golds here with the leaves falling off the tress.

They look gorgeous Denise!

DH spent all day yesterday mowing and tidying up our yards since they were neglected whilst we were overseas. For a man who never touched a lawn 7yrs ago, he has come a long way and does a gorgeous job.

What a lovely house and garden you have there kyton, a huge area to keep tidy.  Your garden beds look great and the kids have a lovely area in which to play as well.  Perfect for a young family, thanks for sharing and well done to your DH for his efforts yesterday.

Thanks Judy, we are very fortunate. Our home is built on what was his paternal Grandfather's horse paddock. When he passed away the property sat unsold for close to a year before we talked my I laws into keeping their 1/3 and we bought the other 2/3. His parents are now in their 70's and they built a home last year on their third right next door to us.

We are right in the middle of suburbia but are very well hidden from the road and have almost an acre to play with. The kids love being able to ride bikes, electric cars and play in their own park LOL.

What a great arrangement kyton, you can be there for the in-laws but it doesn't feel as if they are right on your doorstep.  With our 1/4 acre blocks or even less these days with the way they build, your place is so spacious.  I can't see you going anywhere soon  ;D

Wow Kyton, looks fantastic. Even the cubby looks good enough to rent out for accomodation.
