I am back in the land of the living!

Thank you for all your happy anniversary messages! What a nice surprise to come home and see them all on my blog! (hugs!)We had a wonderful weekend away, worth every minute! IT was wonderful to be just a wife, a friend and me for two days, instead of a mother, a cleaner, and a cook!We drank a lot of wine, rested, sight-seed and just had a proper rest with lazy mornings and evenings by the fireplace!

Here are a few of my favorite shots-was hard narrowing it down considering I took over 600 photos!!!
Here is the bedroom. To the left it had a little dresser and chair, in front a cupboard and a chest of drawers with a TV and leading off a en-suite. A set of doors opening out onto the patio with a little table and chair set which we sat at both mornings eating breakfast. Their was a black pool too which we took a dip in.
In the distance are mountains and vineyards.
From the front door you walk into the lounge and you can see the dinning room which the kitchen leads off. To the left of the photo off the lounge is the other bedroom. and in front of the main couch in the lounge is a fireplace, TV etc.

Hubby took this one of me looking at the treesThe cottage from the side.The first door is the bedroom, then the front door.

View from the garden.
View from the patio of the mountain and vineyards. The front vineyard by the wall is right off the garden!!

Another shot of the same mountain from the pond.The same mountain , taking from the top looking down. Straight inline with that dirt road is where we stayed.
The little gate leading off to the vineyard
The patio, this is where we ate breakfast.
The little gate (this is mirrored on each side of the house is a square garden with oak trees, lavender bushes, a small stone wall and a little gate with a gravel path with lavender bushes lining the pathway.

The pond in front of the house, it was alive with geese and ducks and general bird life. We took a little row boat and paddled out onto it. This is at sunset. I hope you enjoyed seeing the photos! I will post some more sometime!
I am struggling with my commitment to have a freebie a day...but trying to fulfill my promise!
