It's been a wonderful week filled with smiles. Around a lovely weekend away in our caravan I was busy with sewing....wedding dresses, prom dresses and much much more.
We had our first adventure for 2025 in our caravan. We had 3 nights on our favourite campsite near Llanidloes....it's like home from home, they make us feel so welcome. It was Peggy's first time away in the caravan and she took to it like a duck to water. We were allocated the best pitch on the site parked next to pond [the size of a tennis court] that is now filled with koi carp fish...and some of them are HUGE.
On the bottom left is a photo of another pond on the site where I sat listening to the birds while Peggy was enjoying a run in the enclosed dog run.
I use an app on my phone that recognises birds and while I was sitting there it heard...
- White wagtail
- Willow warbler
- Mallard
- Swift
- Pheasant
- Reed Bunting
- Chaffinch
- Redstart
- Siskin
- Blackcap
- Swallow
- Dunnock
- Greater Whitethroat
- Blackbird
- Goldfinch
- Robin
- Chiffchaff
- Greenfinch and
- Wren
It was bliss....I really love my birds
I thought you'd like to see a close up my son took of the baby robins in the bird house in our back garden.
They had flown the nest by the time we got home from our weekend away....not a bad thing because if they had landed on the floor I have a feeling Peggy would have killed them if she'd caught them.....aren't they cute?
This is our granddaughter Lexi's latest outfit she is to wear when she performs a Lady Gaga inspired piece at the O2 arena in London...she's such a beautiful girl inside and out and we are so very proud of her.
Of course it wouldn't be a Friday without a few funnies. I hope you find something here to make you smile and will then leave me a comment before linking to your own smiles below.
Hugs,

Sounds like you had a wonderful time over the weekend on the camp site. A pond full of koi! Angela would love it too!
Oh Lexie is gorgeous and that outfit makes her look even more lovely. Such an artistic family. Who do they get it from.
Of course the funnies made me smile first thing this morning. The bottom left one has some text missing (I think) or else I don't get it.
Enjoy your weekend,
Lisca
Of course I love the Lady Gaga outfit - stunning. Well done Lexi. So glad you had a brilliant time away. Lovely pics.x x Jo 🌈
As a The Simpsons-fan I understand Lady Gaga is not gaga and your Lexi is really beautiful as her and herself!
Mimimi... nooo, leave the squirrel alone!
LOL on the last one!!!!
Have a smiley day today!
Commenting here because I'm late for WOYWW again and this is double bubble! My word doesn't Lexi look amazing, I bet the dance routine is off the scale complicated and I hope she enjoys every second at the O2! Thanks for the virtual ATCs, I'm having them all, of course, couldn't choose between them! Also that veil embroidery, oh boy- how brave you are! Way back when I got married I sewed on my veil, seed pearls as a hem and then 'random' seed pearls over the rest...nearly killed me, all that finesse and no decent tension from the net and omg it makes me pale to think about really embroidering! a as usual, GO YOU! xxxx
Hi Annie. The park looks brilliant and of course the koi lake naturally. Pleased Peggy enjoyed it too. Love lexi's costume and the dog funnies obviously. Have a good weekend. Hugs Angela xXx
What a lovely weekend for your first outing ths year. I love to hear the birds too. There are several different ones around here too even though we are on a busy London road. The baby robins are very cute. That koi pond is very special. I am surprised a stork hasn't found them .
A fancy outfit for Lexi. That is a big venue for her to perform at.

the camping trip sounded peaceful. I love birdsong and watching them, my new obsession is baby owls. Lexi looks very cool in her dance outfit and how wonderful to have grands that adore her. And know her. Peggy must love having a rolling house to play in
