Photo A Day - Day 16 - Flower

Although I’ve been totally neglecting FatMumSlim’s photo a day April challenge, I have randomly decided to get back into it today. Princess was very excited about today’s prompt and eagerly grabbed the camera and stepped outside to start snapping shots. She came back in a few minutes later and said “Mum, there’s absolutely no flowers.” She was right, flowers are pretty scarce around here at this time of year, and I’m no gardener, so most of our plants are flax and cutty grass.

So we jumped in the car and headed for the most beautiful gardens we know: Anderson’s Park. The weather was beautiful today, so we had a nice walk through the gardens, then played on the playground for a while. Froggie enjoyed the swing and Princess made a few new friends on the merry-go-round.

Then we visited the Art Gallery, which we’ve always loved but haven’t been inside for a while. Today they had a quiz happening for the kids, since it’s school holidays, so we spent some time walking through and checking everything out to answer the quiz questions. Faith got all her answers right, so she got a sticker and a colouring page to take home.

After that we headed home, baby fell asleep on the way to the car, all tuckered out from his time at the park. And after all that, I forgot to take a photo of the flowers. So I’m sharing the photo that Princess took at the park today. It’s beautiful anyway.
